Got my box from Catfish Noodlin From left to right: J Wakefield Brewing glass Cigar City Happening Now session IPA Cigar City Jai Alai IPA Cigar City Puppy's Breath Porter Cigar City Wandering Pelican Black Ale Cigar City Invasion Pale Ale Cigar City/Terrapin Southern Slice lager Cigar City Cucumber Saison Funky Buddha Blueberry Cobbler American wheat ale Funky Buddha Iron & Barley Wine (aged in Cabernet barrels) Cigar City Marshal Zhukov Not pictured: another can of Invasion Pale Ale and 5(!) more cans of Jai Alai. Holy poo poo dude, this box rocks! I know I messaged you when I got it, but wow, I am blown away. I already threw a Jai Alai in the fridge to enjoy after work. Thank you so much for sending the awesome Cigar City beers. They've been on my list as a brewery I've wanted to try more of. Plus, a kick rear end packing job; definitely going to reuse the 12 pack shipper for my next trade/BiF. Thank you for the great box!

My box from Podima arrived today 100% intact. NEBCO Fat Ten-er (described as a Belgian table ale) NEBCO Gandhi-Bot NEBCO Attempted RedRum Overshores Brewing Co. Triple Brun Full Sail BBA Imperial Stout Two Roads Roadsmary's Baby Brooklyn Monster Ale (from Nov 2012) I'm obviously super stoked for the NEBCO beers, especially Gandhi-Bot, and the Attempted RedRum sounds like a great barleywine. I've never had any of these so very happy with this box. I also really like the industrial strength packing foam that surrounded every beer. Thanks a bunch Podima! nosleep fucked around with this message at 01:28 on Sep 10, 2014 |

Awesome, glad it all arrived ok! Definitely reuse that packing material if you can - it originally came from belgiuminabox and is nigh-impenetrable from my experience.

broom posted:Enjoy! I definitely will. Got a taste of the Strawberry Rhubarb at the bottle share before Foothill's Sexual Chocolate release last Saturday and it was amazing. Besides that, I've tasted Jai Alai and the NG Berliner at other shares but I've not had any of the others. I'm especially stoked to try the TGD and Central Waters! I've been on a no beer diet for 2 weeks because of some GI issues (obviously I cheated a little at the BASC release), but that should be finished this Friday and psuedoSue is going to be my "welcome back to beer" beer.

I received this box from Zam: From left to right: Smog City Coffee Porter, Belching Beaver Peanut Butter Milk Stout, Alesmith BA Old Numbskull, Firestone/3F Old Leghorn, Firestone Bretta Weisse, Mammoth Double Nut Brown, Almanac Farmer Reserve Citrus and Heirloom Pumpkin, Modern Times Blazing World, Fortunate Island, Blackhouse, and Lomaland. It's like someone gave me Pentothal and I wrote a detailed description of what I like and it got filled by someone very well versed in their local beer. I'm thrilled with this box, and I'm really hoping I can win a box from Zam for the Beer League. Hamhandler fucked around with this message at 00:59 on Sep 11, 2014 |

Got back from the other side of the country so I drove to another country to pick up air-'s package for me. Just... holy poo poo. Lakewood The Temptress New Glarus Oud Bruin Boulevard Love Child #4  Jester King Das Überkind Prairie Artisan Ales Cherry Funk Real Ale 18th Anniversary Gose air- somehow managed to fulfil some of my wildest dreams. Made the drive to Buffalo worth it.

I got an e-mail from him last week saying he was going to ship the following day. I just sent an e-mail to him asking if he did indeed ship. Guy has successfully participated before, so I am confident it just hasn't gotten there yet. Will update you when I can.

I had posted earlier in the thread asking why you were my BIFee given our distributions. I did get lost in work and emailed Swickles to make sure that you were still my BIFee after no further update and the only response I got was asking if I had sent the package yet (yesterday).

A few days ago I received a box from an unknown person in Delaware: [img]http://i.imgur.com/smCCZVQ.jpg?1][/img] And the beers: Heady Topper Evolution Migration Series Fall 2013 Evolution Menagerie #8 Jack's Abby Berliner Style Lager Lavery Liopard Oir Yards Trubbel de Yards I've never had Heady before and am pretty happy about that. There also seems to be a good amount of funk in the box which is exciting. The box itself was really well put together too.

Ugh. Iodie/air-, full transparency - your pairing up is probably my fault. I think what happened is I forgot to include air- on my list of previous BiFfees in the google signup form (can't check though, obviously), and so got assigned him again this go-round. Swickles did the best he could by swapping me with Iodie's assignment, since at that point Iodie hadn't gotten his yet due to needing an email address. Unfortunately, that ended up with you two being in the same distribution region Really, really sorry about that - air-, if we ever end up doing a trade, I'll try to make it up to you since you're getting a little unfairly screwed by this. Iodie, don't let this scare you off of future BiFs - they're still lots of fun, and Swickles did a great job taking this one over from LeafHouse!

Yo air- if you're gonna be in Houston this weekend and want to grab a pint, let me know. Most of my plans are on Sunday or in the morning so I'd be game, if you've got some free time.

Well Merkin Muffley has been messaging me a bit during the process saying he's been super busy at work and what not, last week he told me the box was shipping out last Monday and I should receive it later in the week, I asked for the tracking number so I can be sure to grab the box cus I haven't been home much recently and haven't heard back, no box either. He said he knows it's been a bit shady so he sent Swickles a pic of his box, did you get that pic Swickles? I know he's been busy and stuff but if you have the box put together you can just schedule a pickup at your house from Fedex or UPS.

Yeah, he sent me a pic. Don't click unless you want spoilers. http://instagram.com/p/tO254JKejp/ Also, he said it was going out one week ago, so it should be there soon. I will PM and ask for a tracking number.
