    Jelly of that PNC, I'm ISO that one (it's one of the few Proprietor's Reserve Series I don't have in the cellar)

    Wasn't trying to give you a hard time, just pointing out that you did list the BCBCS, and its image was in the family shot, so no reason it wouldn't count. That said, I always appreciate extra ****.

    Oh, speaking of extra ****, a little LIF box from @HoppySeb came today:
    [​IMG]
    Hair of the Dog Adam and Fred - both permawants
    Evil Twin I Love You With My Stout - might not have been marked as a want, but it was one
    Fort George 3 Way and Black Sands - Never heard of the brewery so I'm looking forward to trying them out!

    Thanks again man!

    I'm really glad you got that awesome box from @ox1574! Considering your BIF reputation, you deserve it! And I'm amped about the 2nd box coming next week...I've hardly scratched the surface of the first one, and there's another coming ?! Madness I tell you. Your generosity shall be repaid *wrings hands menacingly*

    So Thursday I was awakened by a thud on my pourch. Was excited to see a huge box. Opened it up, unpacked the beautiful stouts. Notified @billhelm his box arrived safely. Got a few photos and received a terrible phone call. An employee was hurt in a car accident. So needless to say been a hard couple of days but here are finally the photos of the haul.

    WOW that's a SECOND box? Damn son... also note that the Beer Geek Breakfast is the oak aged, I'm probably the only one that didn't know that right away but imo they don't point it out very clearly.

    They all loaded ok actually. The first 2 pics didn't upload correctly and I corrected it, but I couldnt figure out how to delete the broken link images while on my phone, and to be completely honest, I'm on vacation. I didn't care enough to figure it out. I already spent 10 min on it.

    Forced myself to choke down 3 of them last night with some buddies. Santa Cruz was a hit. Can't wait to try the Epic stout.

    The earliest I could ship was Thu or Fri since Mippers (the*VIRGIN) was my target & his box(es_ had to be recd 1st. I didn't want the beer sitting in a hot warehouse/truck over the holiday weekend so I cleared it with Mippers & did the drop today. (Anything after 6:00pm Fri was safe. My FedEx drop is an ac office that's kept comfortably cool 24/7)

    It should be arriving Fri or Sat. There's a total of 354 oz beer, 302 oz of which are stouts plus a 22 oz Imperial Porter & a few odds & ends. Average BA rating for just the stouts is 96.1. I hit 9 wants though that includes the Imperial Porter.

    Sorry to have been off the radar a lot lately but the nights have been both late & BUSY. I can only post from my phone when I'm not home which is such a pain.

    No matter what they say this woman LOVES pr0n. The pix here have been uber drool worthy. The reality of all of these oh so lovely solid packages would have me moooanninggg, GROANNNINNNGGG, ultimately sighhhhing in blissful satisfaction...

    Now correct me if I'm wrong, but....................didn't you say this was your first as well??:wink:

    It sounds amazing! Thank you for taking the time to put together such an awesome sounding "package"!! The next few days are not going to be fun with all the waiting.

    How often do you guys do this and how abouts would one get in on the next round? I don't know who organized this amazingness lol but if there is ever an extra spot for your next round, let me know :slight_smile: I've traded with a few of the folks on here and would love to get in on this. If not no worries, thanks in advance :grinning:

    Next round probably won't be til late winter I'd imagine. We did Round 2 in December so factor 8 months from July if we stay the course? Even 6 months puts us starting this in January with a February ship date? Only concern then is the weather.
