SAVAGES (v2) Hints/Hauls

Work laptop.

I spilled an American Solera barleywine in to my last one. Shockingly, nothing broke. The keys sure were sticky after that though!

I try to drink dryer, less sweet beers on work hours now.

 

When the box from @dprice from last week is so heavy that it craters the driveway....

 

I hope I have a box landing today, forgot to keep the tracking number sooooo.

 

Box for each of my targets say Friday delivery. Just a small one for first attack.
Both have same mystery beer, so if you want to be surprised, don't look at your eskimo targets mystery beer post.

 

First targets boxes should be there now...

 

lol eskimo targets. I like that.

 

Hey target #2 - I was so close to having my package stuffed in your hole. USPS couldn’t access the drop off location though. Maybe tomorrow, and then Monday...

Since you have no idea I’m your sender, might as well give a clue. I’m guessing the reason you didn’t receive your box today is because your city has been an asshole to Santa in the past. Shame on you!!

 

I’ve been hit! Guess I know my second sender now. Details to follow @Orca_Whale

 

No joke - good lord, man. Damage report - I haven't been wrecked this bad since I lost a job back in 2007 and stayed drunk for five weeks straight! No joke - this is unbelievable. Two boxes right off the bat!



The "small" box first:


Eleven cans, and again, that's the small box - what the fudge, man. So much Bearded Iris! Also Trim Tab, which I haven't yet tried. The mystery beer says "below 13.9%" - haha, well-played, John! Two sweet Southern Grist Brewing stickers as well - those'll go on the beer fridge soon enough.

The second box:


I love peanut butter, and you have to be a communist to dislike chocolate. This looks fantastic - great food item choices, John - I'm psyched!



A beautiful Bearded Iris teku. This is definitely going in to the regular glassware rotation. Great choice - loving it!



I cannot believe how much beer was stuffed in to this box! More impressive is how many areas of distro these bottles are from. What in the world is that Bottle Logic doing in there??? Anyway - cans from Trim Tab, New Heights, Southern Grist, and Bearded Iris. All of these look stellar. That vanilla black currant boysenberry can has my eye at the moment - I do love black currants!

It also looks like John must have stopped by Side Project - dude, you get around. Did Southern Grist get to distro this Garagiste collab as well? I can't tell you how exciting that is - I loooooove Garagiste! So, so many bottles - seriously, John, this is too much. I really appreciate the consideration and generosity that went in to this box!

The whole shebang - I think this gets John the nomination for "best box":


Just insane, man.

Thank you once again, John - as much as I suspect you've emptied your cellar... you can definitely expect a thank you box in the future. Cheers!

 

Very nice @Buck89 !

 

Good lord @Buck89 that is a crushing box!!! Nice job!

 

@Orca_Whale Philly is a huge pain in the ass for boxes, but your box did indeed arrive safely! You had me completely fooled. Your earlier comments after the ninja made me sure you weren’t my sender, so kudos on your deception

This box is quality on top of quality.

- 7.4% mystery beer. This will be consumed Saturday night!
- TG Mornin’ Latte
- Jester King Atrial Rubicite (big want!)
- Alluvial: Badgers Nadgers BA Barleywine and Martin Shkreki BA stout (Hol. E. Fuck. on both of these )
- Barn Town: Yer Killin Me Smores stout (this sounds bangin too)

I’ve never had Alluvial, and these bottles look unreal. 200 bottle count?!? That is mighty generous to share with me, Bill. I will definitely save these for the proper glassware.


Thank you again for these killer brews. I had a long, shitty day and looking at these beers makes me feel so much better!

 

Dang, what a box @Buck89 killer job!

 

Are you responsible for this massive impact to my porch this morning. Im horrible with the clues and hints.

This box was unreal almost blew my back out trying to get it on top of the island. All new ticks it’s going to be a good weekend. If you are my target thanks you so much if not the mystery continues.

 

Kilt him @Dragginballs76 - crazy box, man! Well done!

 

Quality box as always, Bill. Nicely done. @Orca_Whale

Ripper @Dragginballs76 really good selection of brews there.

 

amazing boxes @Buck89 @Orca_Whale @Dragginballs76 ! Damn!

I have to ask: Who names a beer after Martin Shrkeli? What’s the story behind that name?

 

Damn @Orca_Whale excellent box!
