    Bumping this thread for Saturday’s holiday-themed mystery box. No online sign up—it’s all in person this go-round. Will that mean PtY style lines, or has SF cleared out by now?

    My box:

    Cable Car '17 (my favorite vintage of recent years)
    T30
    SARA Dutch Door
    Sierra Nevada 30th Anniversary Jack and Ken's Black Barleywine (haven't had this in forever)
    50/50 Eclipse No Wax, No Sharpie, Old Label (anyone have any idea what this could be??)
    2004 Corsedonk Christmas Ale
    Modern Times Quadrajet
    Rare Barrel 2014 Sourtooth Tiger
    Lost Abbey Ex Cathedra
    2012 Ommegang 3 Philosophers
    Yeast of Eden Grisette
    Avery golf foil sour with a long name

    Overall pretty stoked on the CC and Dutch Door. A few turds and a few interesting bottles. Happy to support the bar either way.

    Edit: After a little bit of research, it appears the unwaxed Eclipse might be a 2009 Jack Daniel's variant that was limited to 400 bottles and only given out to friends of the brewery and some bars. It was also aged for 300 days vs. 200 for the normal Eclipse. Reviews from years back are not favorable, to put it lightly.

    Not bad! Mine was more sour heavy, the stouts/barleywines were a bit older than I'd like. I got:

    17 cable car
    30th anniversary
    25th anniversary
    Quadrajet
    Lost Abbey Red Poppy
    Sonoran ales barley wine from 2000
    2008 schlafly reserve BA stout
    Yeast of Eden saison apotheca
    3F gueze 2016
    Sierra Nevada jack and Ken 30th anny (2010)
    Rare barrel 2017 hyper paradise (mango sour)
    FW lil opal 2016

    Trying to not be jealous of the people with horus stuff, as this is a great collection, especially the 25th anny
