Swap-O-Rama #5, The fall harvest...

[BeerMeDuffMan]

I had a few GABF in my box...sadly I sent two of each of two of them. They are so good you can't have just one...

 

[absoluthamm]

Mine doesn't have any doubles, but there is an Anti-Hero and a Galaxy Hero(Anti-Hero with Galaxy hops). Closest to a double I have, although one is a can, one is a bomber.

lol sorry, should of clarified, two of one kind.

I need to take another look at gbaf winners. I know I have at least one gold medalist but ne'er really looked through.

If you guys haven't seen it yet, YouTube Triumph the insult comic dog at GABF. Hilarious.

Can u guys get Heineken on the east coast? Not sure what else to send 😉

 

[TallDan]

Looks like I get to be the first to say that i received beer! (and it looks like a bunch of other goodies!)

Yeah. It's only 90% skunked by the time it gets here, west coast is probably more like 95-98%.

lol aw well...looks like he already got it

Yes, I did! I've been digging through it a little while trying to get some work done. (I am working from home this week.) I'll post some pictures later once I have a chance to get it all unpacked.

This has clearly set the bar high though. Good news for who I'm sending to, I haven't sent yet and know i need to up my game plan!

Those extras are just the balls, aren't they Totally off topic, but good craft anything is worth sharing

 

[absoluthamm]

Damn, I was hoping it was going to be me... Had a hunch that it was coming to IL though.

 

[BeerMeDuffMan]

It came through A LOT faster than I had anticipated. Original delivery was slated for Friday. By 8pm yesterday it was in IL

This is what happens when BeerMeDuffMan sends you beer.

 

[NIZZLE]

You da man beerman! :rockin:

 

[TallDan]

The unlabeled bottle in the front row is a Westvleteren 12. The only thing not in that box was a cheesesteak.

Hmmm that must of melted

 

[lilrokz06]

That's a nice looking haul... Great job.

 

[BeerMeDuffMan]

That big ole bottle in the back is a bottle Philly's own craft salted caramel whiskey. Thank Mikey for that idea

Damn dude! You don't play around!

Yep, already sampled that! I don't think I'll likely be drinking it straight (again), but especially with the included cocktail recipes it certainly will not go to waste!

At first I thought it might be Root (http://www.artintheage.com/spirits-landing/root/) since the bottles are very similar and it's also from Philadelphia.

 

[BeerMeDuffMan]

Its a bit harsh...nothing like a typical whiskey...which is exactly what I found interesting about it. That Root us good stuff!

 

[bcros80]

Nice box duffman!

 

[Canti4341]

Nice haul!

 

[Indytruks138]

Bottle of craft whiskey and a westy 12! The level has been raised.

 

[BeerMeDuffMan]

Weeeeee that was fun!

 

[BeerMeDuffMan]

That Brawler and Pikeland pils that I sent both took some honors at GAFB. I was searching for the aged Voodoo Daddy yo no avail. I hope you enjoy the other contents as well

 

[DrPhunk]

Nice package dude!

 

[aeviaanah]

He'll yea duff that's what I'm talkin about! Can we get a list of all beers included?

Aah, so that's why there were two of each of those, and the rest were singles.

My wife was excited about the Sweet Baby Jesus, apparently she had just talked to a friend about that one. This is really pretty awesome

I love me some sweet baby jesus. Just finished a bottle, and my recipient will be getting some.

Dan you want to give a list? My memory isn't too hot lol

 

[aeviaanah]

This should be a thread rule!

On a side note, I just tried my latest ipa and it's killer! 7 different hops and it's paid off! I always know a good homebrew if it's good even before it's carbonated!! Id like to give a few of these away for critique. Gonna need to be in the keg for a week or so tho.http://www.brewtoad.com/recipes/maris-the-middle-child

 

[SavoryChef]

This is the final bottle for my recipient. Oh and I'm not sending the empty, I bought two.
