Stout BIF Round 5 Hints & Hauls

yea, sorry man. fingers crossed that the results aren't too bad

 

My boxes have been sitting in my shotty state since Thursday. Hopefully we get an update today that they're one step closer to their final west coast destination.

 

Got box 1 just before I left for work.

 

No Beer and no tracking make lil beaver something something...

 

Sending you a message now.

See my Quote below - unfortunately the Civil Society crowlers are not a part of the box I am LIFing. I could only bring my small cooler and all of the 6 were either consumed this past weekend or were given to my friends who helped me move.

 

Dear Target,

Both of your boxes both look like this:


- Me

 

Oh geez, I'm an idiot. I don't know what I was thinking. :-) Maybe I wasn't. Between working 2 jobs, overtime, the wife, and 1 1/2 year old I don't know whether I'm coming or going sometimes. LOL Will check my PM now.

 

I think this could be me (double checking clues), although I have no received an annoyed text from the wife yet about huge box a beer on the porch.

 

The eagles have landed... maybe some Pron tonight?

 

Just came home to a couple of boxes on the front porch from Florida. I'm assuming @Mangbus is my sender?

Box 1 has been unwrapped and ready to go, but Box 2 will have to wait until tonight, as I have to get back to work.



Box 1

Bells Black Note - Awesome. One of my favorite beers of all time. Wish they would release it again.

2014 KBS - Always welcome, and always awesome

2012 World Wide Stout - I always buy a few of these when they're released, but never have the patience to sit on them. Can't wait to see what it's like with some age.

2015 bourbon county - BCS is always welcome. My favorite beer in the world.

2013 Stone IRS - With this year's version dropping soon, it'll be nice to do a side by side.

2014 Choklat and Mokah - Perfect Dessert Beers

2014 Expedition Stout - I love expedition, and always try to have a couple of older vintages on hand, because this bad boy ages beautifully. Going right to the collection.

2014 Brooklyn Chocolate Stout - love this beer.

2014 Ten Fiddy - Ditto.

So far, so good. Can't wait to see what the big boys are.

 

Fuck it. I decided to just go ahead and open the box and be late. My excitement couldn't handle it.

So, here what we have in the second box from @Mangbus.



2014 Oak Aged Espresso Yeti - Fantastic beer. Love it so much.

Cycle Pallet (4?) - I think this is pallet 4. Not 100% sure. Either way, don't care. I'm super stoked. Can't wait to try it. Never have had a cycle stout, so this is exciting.

2014 Huna - Awesome sauce. I was lucky enough to try this version fresh, and it's the only time I've been lucky enough to try Huna. I can't wait to crack this open. This one probably comes to Dark Lord Day with me.

Westbrook 5th Anniversary - Can't say I know too much about this, but the description sounds phenomenal, and it's Westbrook, so in sure it's out of this world.

Intuition Ale works Underdark - Can't say anything be ever heard of this, or the brewery, but sounds awesome, and it's got wax, so you know it's got the seal of approval.

Stone Woot Stout 2.0 - Love this beer. My friend still has a Woot Stout OG, so we'll be able to do a side by side on this.

Group shot



All in all, a great shipment that I can wait to sit down and enjoy.

Thanks @Mangbus, and good luck with the move!

 

@campa86 hit me with this sweet stash including some real Alpine and some Modern Times goodness. The dry hopped Saison sounds interesting, right in my wheelhouse. Thanks Michael! Drinking the Alpine now...


Also drinking this delicious IPA from @beatjunkee ; love Wicked Weed!

Cheers, friends!

 

Glad everything arrived in one piece. Enjoy those beers.

That is a Pallet 4 (Monstra Coffee) and I believe the Huna '14 is batch 1.

 

Fiance was away with the ipad. I'll post a pic up tonight, likely.
