    Checking in! Heading to Atlanta to see the Hawks play tonight and stopping by Brickstore Pub (damn good if you're ever in Atlanta.) Will be picking up a few items while in the city and then my box should be squared away! Final hint to come :slight_smile:

    My target has posted in this forum in the past two days. He will be receiving a bunch of beers that lean towards the dark side, some slightly older and some barrel aged. The beer portion of this BIF has been secured, now to locate an adequate T-shirt.

    Looks like I'm up first! I was sitting at my computer on BeerAdvocate (what else?) and to my surprise UPS was knocking at the door. Very nice package delivered from Berserk4886, ripped into it like a mad man and here's the porn!:

    [​IMG]

    Three Floyds Moloko (want!) - I tried tracking this down a while back with no luck. Love milk/sweet stouts and am really excited to finally try it!
    Three Floyds Zombie Dust x2 (should be want) - Had my first zombie dust last week and was craving more instantly. Looks like I'm covered for the weekend, yes!
    Central Waters Peruvian Morning (want!) - One of my bigger wants from Central Waters, this will be enjoyed this weekend for sure.
    Founders Imperial Stout - Love this beer and was only able to secure a few due to poor distribution, very happy for another.
    Founders Backwoods Bastard - Same with Imperial Stout, was shafted and this is easily my favorite scotch ale.
    Saugatuck Neapolitan Milk Stout - A stout brewed with chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry? Score! Looks like I'll be taking a trip out for some ice cream to enjoy this with... I wonder what kind I should get?
    Tyranena Rocky's Revenge - Brown ale aged in bourbon barrels, count me in! Can't wait to try it
    Dark Horse Fore - Really quite a noob to smoked beers and Dark Horse in general so really excited to try this one out.
    Bell's Kalamazoo Stout - This is one of those stouts that I see frequently and tell myself that I'm going to try soon but never do - problem solved!
    Shwag - Lakefront Brewing shirt, way cool - representing Wisconsin!

    You knocked this one out of the park Dan, thanks a million! I have a big cookout planned this weekend with the great weather heading our way and I certainly plan on cracking open several of these kickass beers. Cheers man!

    Just got back with a haul of beer from a state south of me. My target will be getting at least a couple wants off his list. Box is all packed up and ready to be shipped out Monday. A football team near my target didn't make a pick until the second day of the draft.

    Another football team near my target that has not been very successful in recent years got something in this draft that they hope fills a need they have had since the late 90's.

    Looks like a lot of boxes are en route or ready to go. Just a reminder to get the boxes out on Monday, for those who haven't shipped yet.

    Ur tips are making me think it's coming my way...but I don't want to get over excited since you have access to so much great stuff I'd love to try.

    momma always said "life is like a box of beer.....go big or go home!". so there is a fifty pound box(give or take) of midWEST love heading somewhere. my target should remember two things. 1) lift with your knees, not your back. 2) a real beer drinker would have this gone before the weekend is over. have fun and looking forward to seeing everyones hauls!
