    Hint #1. Shpping north and picked up stuff to send today
    Hint #2. My target has not been on B.A. as long as I have
    Hint #3. Shipping to one of the original 13 colonies
    Hint #4. Mmm Cucumber Saison
    Hint #5. Just waiting for the final piece of the 6er. Gonna send NE very soon.

    To all the lurkers out there... Sending beer to random people is a good thing. Maybe that's why I have joined 3 other BIF's since this one. I have a core group that I trade with but still look to spread the Florida sunshine to those less fortunate.

    So this was the first thing I pulled out of the fridge, and I think I'll find something nicer to be the 'toast', but here's my first of the night.

    Cheers!

    I have gotten a box the past two nights. I'll have another when I get home tonight. Then after my run I'm heading to Casanova to get some beer. I need to get drinking.

    Glad you like it!
    The Endevour is tasting fantastic now that they keep cranking out fresh batches. Hope your buddies will enjoy everything as well!

    I'm gonna make you Ed's target next round... "I don't always trade beer, but when I do ..." and you'll get a whole box of Dos Equis

    I mean, if he gets all the Dos Equis for free, I'd expect he could at least splurge and include some Bohemia to go with it...

    Picked up my box from the UPS store this morning. Didn't have time for pictures before work but the bottles were amazing. Great job @mkhartnett.

    Mike didn't give many clues -- were you able to figure out that he was your sender? :-)

    @Mikexw were you able to get tracking information from our fearless leader? Hopefully that box is bouncing around on a truck today headed for delivery to a porch in Michigan. Publicly I want to thank @Mikexw for his work in tracking down Rob, intimidating him and working with him to get him to send (allegedly). I figured he was a big man and after I found his facebook page it was confirmed. For those of you who don't know now you do see below and if you are near NY be afraid...be very afraid.

    It has arrived!

    Wow, what a box! @Mikexw totally knocked it out of the park!

    Captain Lawrence - Birra DeCicco Limone Luppolo (Want!)
    Sloop Brewing - The Sauer Peach (I've never heard of this, but this sounds amazing.)
    Captain Lawrence - IIPA (Want!)
    Ithaca - Cruiser (Not on my wants for some reason, I thought it was! Awesome.)
    Ithaca - Flower Power (Want!)
    Evil Twin - Imperial Biscotti Break DeCicco w/ Chili and Hazelnuts (What?! Huge want! I couldn't believe it when I saw this!)

    Extra! Mike's Hoptimal Solution homebrew! Love the name, this sounds awesome. Can't wait to try it!

    He even knew that I love cats and extra'd this little black cat! :wink:

    Thanks for box Mike, this was incredible. Thanks for letting me in guys, I loved every bit of this BIF and I can't wait until the next round.

    Cheers!

    OK -- so the good news is that Rob DID ship the package, the bad news is that he just dropped it off this morning. It is scheduled for delivery Tuesday. As soon as I see the tracking number online I will forward it to interested parties so they can watch.

    Yeah, I mean I seriously think that he had it the trunk of his car, got my text this morning reminding him that I needed the tracking number (I thought he had mailed it Wednesday afternoon), and went and dropped it off.
