    I may be responsible for that. Being so big, I couldn't really cover the Bruery bottles and have them fit in the shipper. But, I felt comfortable enough placing them inside the shipper and sending them off. I didn't want to switch boxes.

    It's all good... besides if anyone were at fault, it would be airlines for keeping Don out so late when he obviously had pressing issues at home to attend to. Like opening boxes of beer!

    More curious as to what IPA he is keeping than anything else at this point.

    Glad to see were still using my compostable garbage bags. Seems like six folks left before the box returns home.

    Again sorry for screwing up the last pics, I was tired and rushed last night to get a pic posted and didnt even think of what I was doing, If I could edit my post I would just delete it.

    Anyway here is what I kept in order, IPA, Wild, Stout, and an extra! A HUGE thank you to Bobby for getting me this amazing selection. Hints on the packages next destination coming soon :grinning:

    I currently have 2 wants of my target and going for a 3rd but have a tough decision to make. These beers are not of the same rarity/price of what I received but they are my targets wants so do I just go with those or try to put something more "special" in? Might just do the 2 wants, something more rare and then an extra but looking for any advice so the person who lives in a state whose highest elevation is under 2,000 feet is happy.

    I originally thought I had not been to my targets home state however I forgot about a business trip a few years ago when I visited a city that has more BBQ restaurants per capita than any other city and spent some time in this state.

    The bar has been raised everytime and it will be a difficult to maintain the level for the remaining participants. I'm up for the challenge though... go big or go home, right?

    Two wants and something your target doesn't know he wants yet would be cool by me, however the choice is yours to send what you think is best.

    I'm hoping my target will be happy but, I don't have a damn one of his wants. Kinda sucks, but all is not lost, I do have some super nice stuff I can box up. To be honest with you guys, I wasn't expecting a "Noob BIF" to start and/or maintain the rarity/limited level it has (guess I'll know what to expect next time).

    Nice, haven't had Mrs. Stoutfire curious to how it tastes.
    Sometimes, us BAs don't know what we want, so send what you think your target will enjoy, and a surprise is always awesome!
