    Box arrived earlier today containing a Westy 8, a Westy 12, a Stille Nacht, and an amazing assortment of candy and tea. I am assuming I have RendoMike to thanks for this. My girlfriend dragged it in earlier and I let her open it, and she had already started in on the candy by the time I got home. She's also super-excited about the tea. I am pretty psyched about the beer. I've only had Westy 12 a couple times, and the bottles I had tasted like they had been stored in the sun for years. I haven't tried the others, and though they aren't on my Wants list, obviously they would be if I made any effort to keep it updated. Needless to say I am looking forward to what is coming in the other box.

    In other news, my target can hopefully expect delivery tomorrow. Went with two boxes this time and added a few pounds of beer. Wasn't able to to find a replacement Consecration but I did find a beer from a certain brewery that I have never been lucky enough to find on the shelf before that I think he'll be equally happy with.

    Pictures to follow...

    So weird, that box was part of your extras and was sent two days after the box with all the sours. Box of sours should arrive in the next couple of days.

    Based of the trajectory of the box you received already, the other box will very likely reach your location today.

    Just got it. You almost killed my mailman. Literally. I had to run out and grab it out of the back of his van because he said he is having heart surgery next month and it was too much for him. I'm sporting a pretty fierce hangover from mourning the Pens loss last night but I'm going to pull it together and get a picture up here shortly because this box is sick.

    So I had a long fucking night as I discovered late in the evening that I have a leak in my shower pipes upstairs that has leaked down through my ceiling into the downstairs bathroom...so needless to say, I have had very little sleep and both of my bathroom are a fucking disaster at this point. I suck at plumbing so this is going to be a trainwreck, so needless to say, I didnt sleep very much. With that being said, I spent some time playing with the bombs left on my doorstep yesterday from Aaron...

    Hair of the Dog Michael ~ Flanders Red Ale ~ 6.2% ABV ~ BA Score 85 - WANT

    Block 15 Enchantment T Shirt
    So I noticed that there are zero BA ratings on the Block 15 Enchantment or on the El Cuatro from the Ale Apothocary...therefore, I deem these bottles illegal and demand replacements immediately. Other than that...HOLY FUCKING SHIT, Aaron!!!! You my friend are going to get a ****** in the future, if I ever see you. This box is like a PDX wet dream for me.
