    My target, who has a two hour time difference than me should be receiving his box very very soon.

    Thanks again!

    Glad to hear that everything arrived safe and sound, enjoy! I was hoping to include a couple of Hill Farmstead's saisons in there with the Wachu, but didn't have a chance to make it up to the brewery these past couple weeks. Sounds like you might have secured some though with your visit.

    The Fantasia is amazing. I was able to secure a couple bottles thanks to some generous PNW BAs and figured I would spread the wealth a little. The Sang Royal is the 2009 Project variation, slightly different beer than the regular version. One of my favorites that I've had from them.

    Cheers!

    This box is scheduled to arrive tomorrow in the largest city in its state. It only had to cross two states (excluding its states of origin and destination) to get there.

    No worries, my wants are mostly a wish list these days! These brews are all favorites for the ones I've had, and the rest look tasty!
