    Time for @TheGent blind beer. Tons of funk. Bitter finish. No fruit. Guessing some sort of barreled wild ale. Back later with the results.

    Here’s the verdict.

    Nice one @TheGent I should have guessed this but my mind is fried. Been wanting to try this one but we get very little JK here. In fact I’ve never seen a bottle in person until I was in Bend a couple weeks ago. Snagged the 2019 so will be nice to try that one soon after having this. I really enjoyed this. Thanks!

    Cheers, wanted to get you back as a thanks for that great hit you sent me Kevin. Sorry I couldn’t fit more in there, I’m always nervous about bottles in flat rates. Those are to brand new CW beers I thought you would like.

    Cheers Chuck! When I heard you had not had any new glarus I knew what had to be done. The fruits get all of the love but I think they do lagers incredibly well. Thanks for that bomb you sent my way too!

    The best thing about the Michigan boys trolling each other is there is a cop that can break it up if it gets out of hand

    @larryi86 dropped this awesome box on me yesterday. Had this written up last night but forgot to post it. Lots of new ticks and new breweries. Onto the pron:

    [​IMG]

    From L to R:
    Union - Somebody to Lean On. Proceeds from this beer are donated to the Baltimore Restaurant Relief Fund. Very cool.
    Union - Old Pro. Love goses so I’m excited for this one.
    OH - DDH Space Dream. Yum!
    TH - Alien Church. Love this beer!
    OH - Small Green Everything. Another OH beer that I’m stoked to try.
    TH - WoodLaHands. Sour brown ale conditioned with mushrooms. This sounds really interesting!
    TH - Freedom from the Known. Sour with tart cherries. :yum:
    TH - Ouriserva. Sour aged in white wine puncheons.
    Levante - Cloudy & Cumbersome. Excited to try this offering from Levante. The previous beers I’ve had from them have all been excellent.
    TH - Punge. Excited to revisit this one. Love TH IPAs.
    TH - Helles Other People. I get just as excited for a well done lager or pils now as I do for all the hype beers. Looking forward to this one.

    No worries at all, these all look excellent! And I’m always worried about bottles in flat rates too.

    It looks like the box to my second target is scheduled for delivery tomorrow.

    I want to give one final hint but I can decided if it should be about pizza or a famous WWI era pilot...
