    If the one I had a couple weeks ago is any indication, you didn't miss much. I didn't have a chance to try it fresh, but it did not age well at all.

    Ehh players from other teams count, but not from the current Browns roster. Past Browns players count as well.

    I know nothing about this other than the fact that you are not my target so in theory, I could ship WTFIY with no fear of spider repercussions.

    According to weather bug, my box should be arriving in about 84° of sunny weather.

    You say that now @zekeman17, but here's a little helpful reading if magical boxes keep "popping" up on people's porches.

    One of these boxes is 444th BIF. One of these boxes is a ninja. An ironic ninja at that. Unless it's full of cards. And then still, I guess it could be an ironic ninja if the cards were...um...ironic.

    The ninja initially announces his presence and strikes fear in my hear with GD spider.

    Then he drops a patriot(ic) missile of deliciousness of beers I "ain't" never had.

    @Lehighace06 went "yard" with this one. See what I did there. He can expect retaliation sooner than he would expect. Go home fucker!

    Ironic ninjas are ironic! Thanks brother!

    Hoo boy! Talk about quality over quantity. This damned 444th BIF really got@zekeman17 to hit a MAJOR want of mine and to introduce me to none other than Tired Hands. Did I mention the permanent want in the box? And a beer that may or may not taste like Tequila???? Yessir!

    [​IMG]

    Yuengling Cooz
    Lost Abbey Agave Maria
    BBVD (probably my favorite non-BA stout)
    TH's Falconer's Flight Single Hop Saison (holy delicious...this one won't last long!)
    2013 MoaS (MAJOR want for me, for whatever reason, I've had a lot of trouble getting my hands on this guy)
    Troegs Taster Snifter
    5 4th of July Mints (big, big time want for me)
    Six pack of Firecrackers
    Yuengling bottle opener keychain
    2 spiders...i really, really hate spiders.

    Big time box from Zeke! Glad he picked up part 2 of my LIF, as some payback is warranted. Be warned good sir.

    After the box was packed, I realized how ridiculous it was for someone from PA to send fireworks to someone in SC, but whatever. Drink beer and blow something up! 'merica!!
    There was originally going to be a Kane growler in there, but they aren't open on Sundays. The Tired Hands was a really good hoppy Saison that should taste real nice on the 4th (or before).
    Enjoy.

    While I was at lunch, a well traveled box showed up from Brewzma. Looks like I'm in for a good 4th!
    I felt like an archeologist as I sifted through the clues that trace the box from its beginnings with @ThreeFishes , onwards to @RayOhioFelton , then to @Brewzma and finally to me.
    Pr0n tonight.
    Thanks, Scott

    The box to my target will be landing tomorrow in a county that has the same name as the county I live in.

    Funny thing is that I didn't know that until I googled my target's city to check the temperature, and realized we share a county name. Sorry I do not live in Ocean County. However you'll be getting a nice non-444th box from me soon. :slight_smile:

    I can't wait to get home so I can post my 'diorama' that I made with these beers.

    Someone else should have received a 444th box today as well, I haven't checked the tracking number, but it was on schedule for arrival today as of yesterday (and went out the same time as the above box, and wasn't going much further away, so no reason it should take longer).

    FFF Space Station Middle Finger and Dreadnaught
    Central Waters La Petite Mort
    New Glarus 20th Anniversary along with proper titware

    A note in the box said he tried to find stuff I'd like/want.
    He did.
    The 3 Floyds are already in the fridge and will not last the weekend.
    Thanks, Scott
    Happy 444th!

    Just arrived home to an awesome 444th BIF box from @Marti403, which helps me understand half of his hints and totally confuses me on the other half. No wonder I had no idea this was coming my way hahahaha. Here are the FOUR awesome beers he sent me!

    [​IMG]
    Beer #0.7: Dark Horse Beer Is Dark XIII
    Beer #1.2: Kuhnhenn 4D
    Beer #2.2: New Holland Drangon's Milk Reserve with Toasted Chilies (SO EXCITE!!!)
    Beer #2.9: Dark Horse BBPt5
    Beer #3.14: Founders Imperial Stout (2011!!!!!!! YESSS!)
    Beer #4: Founders KBS (vintage?)

    Thanks Adam for an awesome box. We've been each other's BIF targets before, but never had a proper "trade". I had the pleasure of meeting him in real life at the Michigan Winter Beer Fest this past February and this box reminds me how badly I need to ninja him. Because he always sends me the raddest beer from Michigan.

    I have picked my bottles, and Selecting some tasty stuff to fill in the spaces. But right now the fucking City flooded out my basement. gotta go save my beer and clean up the rest of the place. now that I have posted pron I feel a little less pissed off. upside the BIAB was not in the basement so this year long box has survived. Now the rest of my shippers we shall see how they dry out before I try using them.
