    Just shipped some high ABV stouts to Chicago area in single digit temps and even below zero for some of the time. Shipment left Wednesday and arrived Friday. No problems encountered.

    I shipped some high ABV stouts and barleys, along with a few 8% IIPAs to WI on Tues. 1 day trip. It was 40s here but teens there. Made it no prob. His box was also shipped on Tues and was all high ABV stouts. Was supposed to be a 1 day trip but missed a connection due to a snow storm up there and took 2 days. Cold snap hit in that extra day. It survived low teens by the time it got here, including sitting on my porch for 5 hours in 20-23 degrees.

    I received DDH Congress St and some Aslin Stripes the last two days in Cleveland MID-Vortex and had no issues.

    Monday of this week I shipped from Minneapolis: 2 Surly Darkness, a Bourbon County BW, a Bell's Black Note and a variety of double IPA to Nashville. The items arrived in Nashville Wednesday mid day with no issue. I was holding my breath a little on that shipment due to the extreme cold we had in Minneapolis the early part of this week.

    Received a box of two 12ish% stouts today. Delivered at 9:42 and were on the porch till my wife got home around 2:00. Bottles were fine with no issues
