Got the info, thanks!

My box for Zam is 2/3 made. I bought a bunch of bombers to taste-test before filling out the box. I just moved to Washington from Southern California, so I haven't gotten to everything on my "must try" list, yet.

Just a reminder to reach out to your box recipient to open lines of communciation and let them know when you're planning on assembling and shipping your box.

And post your boxes of beer when they arrive so we can be jealous!

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I, I took the one to Flavortown, and that has made all the difference.

After several ARDUOUS weeks of sampling all the beers in the area (Washington), I have finally culled together 8 different beers that are dynamite and total over $50.

Zam, I'm shipping it this weekend because we might have a night freeze mid-week. Also, this is Yakima Valley stuff, so it's gonna be hoppy,

I failed at getting the box out yesterday, so slight change of plans and I'm going to wait until Monday to ship out. Sorry bout that!

Zam, I have your beers. Still have to pack them up and get them shipped - maybe by this weekend, early next week at the latest.

Sorry I've been out of commission with the flu this last week, Drunk Nerds, your box of Chicago (and a few Michigan) goodies should go out Monday or Tuesday.

Just got a package from HatfulofHollow, who absolutely knocked it out of the park with my box:



A collection from Other Half, Tired Hands, Carton, Oliver Brewing Co, Manor Hill and Forest and Main. I've been dying to try something from Tired Hands for years, and have heard good things about several of the other breweries as well, so I'm super pumped to dig in here.

Thanks so much, HatfulofHollow!

Enjoy man! All the hops are new releases I just had sitting in my fridge along with the manor hill and the oliver, which are two of my favorite shelf turds so I usually have a sixer of both sitting around. I rounded it out with the Coffee Only Void, _______, and Sticky Drippy from my cellar. I opened one of my last COV right before I packed that box just to make sure it was still good to send and it's still quite tasty. Sticky Drippy is one of my favorite TH saisons so I hope you like it. I have 8 more bottles in my cellar because I always max out and trade for it whenever I can.

I'm not a big session IPA fan for the most part but this is one of the better ones I've had. Still kinda watery but the hop flavors are very prominent. Not the best beer for this time of the year but I could see myself crushing a sixer at the beach.

That Bottle Logic Actuator was really nice and mosaic-heavy.

I'm glad to know they arrived safely.

I am eager to hear your opinions on them, as I am really new to the area, so I had to go on an EXHAUSTING taste-rampage of like 50 beers to find 8 I considered worth sharing. The things I do!

dphi, your box is ready to go --- I will wait until 4/10 or so to send it out! Mostly craft breweries straight outta the smallest state -- Rhode Island! Hope you enjoy it. There's even a 6 pack of Gose beer from a local brewery I've fallen in love with.
