    FedEx truck was spotted outside Centreville, VA in a ditch. I should have told them to put the box in the middle of the truck..

    Well I asked my fedex driver why was @PG2G boxes flagged after they were on the truck and he showed me a similar photo from his phone.

    Said it was pretty easy to figure out why they got flagged….

    I'm confused. I think I got a box from this group today, but I can't figure out who it is from. The name doesn't ring a bell...

    I'd blame @Dave_Treat

    Always a safe bet.

    Did Dave change his name to Bryan?

    He sends out so many boxes that Bryan is his beer trading stage name. FedEx was starting to get suspicious with Dave.

    Notice the boxes are centered on the dolly...

    The only Bryan from TX I have in any of my directories is @twofacedmonster but I don't think he's in this BIF, Locals related maybe?

    Again, apologies for the delay on this – got back late Monday and couldn't pick up and unpack boxes until last night. Anyway, a big batch of very welcome stout goodness, courtesy of @jbdpsu82...

    First the "little" guys:
    [​IMG]
    Stoudt's Fat Dog
    Rise Up Stout
    Bourbon Barrel Insidious
    '12 Impending Descent
    '13 Impending Descent (!)
    '14 Impending Descent (!!)
    Aphrodite
    Moo-Hoo
    Wake 'n' Bake
    Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout

    Now for the big guns:
    [​IMG]
    Labyrinth
    Big Black Voodoo Daddy
    Big Gruesome
    '12 Parabola (!)
    Sunny Side Up (!!)
    Buffalo Trace Tenacious Wee (definitely an honorary stout!!)
    Full Sail BB Imperial Stout
    Stone RIS
    Stone Espresso RIS
    Espresso Yeti

    LOVE THE COFFEE BREWS!! Sunny Side Up was not on my radar, but I suspect I'll be seeking more out shortly, and the Rise Up sounds very intriguing. On the non-java side, BBVD is a long-time want, the Impending Descent vertical will be quite interesting, and I'm really looking forward to trying a dark BB wee heavy with the Tenacious Wee. All good stuff!!

    Thank you @jbdpsu82! Despite my long-term pursuit of quality stouts, the majority of these were new and all were very welcome – exactly why we BIF!!
