    I received a box packed unbelievably well from stxSS07. The glorious photo:

    I'm incredibly grateful to Matt for the generous gift of a BA Dark Lord, plus the fantastic extras. I will make sure to share the BADL with as many BAs as possible (the rest are already in the fridge and will likely be in my belly tonight). Thank you very much, I'm blown away by your generosity.

    Cheers to everyone who donated money or prizes. Thanks again to Brad for knocking the cover off the ball with this LIF.

    Glad everything got there safely and thanks again for donating! Hope we can share some brews at DLD this year!

    One more thanks to Brad for organizing/running this one. Proud to be a part of it.

    Excellent box! Thanks for posting the haul. There will be a slight delay with hauls due to the weather. I think we have at least 5 boxes on hold due to freezing temps. Better safe than sorry :slight_smile:

    BTW that Edmund Fitz does look absolutely delicious. Ninja edit, didn't realize there was another Edmund Fitz other than GL, still sounds great though.

    I guess if I wanted a bottle I would have to wait 6 months before it thaws out up there. Looks like it had a hand written number on there as well to so I'm assuming its pretty limited thus harder to get.

    I honestly wasn't trying to insinuate something. I had just never heard of it until I saw the haul the beer (moreso the reviews) immediately piqued my interest. Having said that, I appreciate the offer :wink:

    You're welcome but don't forget GrumpyOldTroll. Without him there would be no BA Dark Lord :slight_smile:

    With photobucket, go for the box on the right that says 'direct link' and put that in the img brackets.

    Killer box!

    Lol, the picture is up :slight_smile:. Thanks Envelopes, he tried asking me for help but I'm worthless when it come to computers. Jpaulsen, congrats again on your baby and winning. I say start cracking some of those bad boys open. Hope you enjoy!

    Edit: Sorry I didn't send more IPA's. I'm pretty anal about sending IPA's that aren't relatively fresh and that can be a challenge in Dallas sometimes.
