    Haha not exactly. It is was just a coincidence. He knew I was shipping some BIF boxes out and had planned to send me one, now knowing he was getting one from me.

    Hey now! Manhattan doesnt look anything like that :)

    I guess the balls in my court now, Scott bombed me again! I hadnt had any of these and cant wait to try them. Thanks for the beers and the bottle opener! How much butter do you eat man, this is the second "I cant believe its not butter" box that youve sent me :D

    BTW, congrats on the new job. Do you work in the beer industry now?

    HAHAHA! I'm working at a grocery store here (HEB) and the butter boxes are a great size for smaller shipments. I start at Ben E Keith Beverage Distribution on March 10 (a day before my birthday, whoop!) as a Sales Rep. So yeah, I finally made it into the industry! :fro::rockin::ban::D:mug:

    Enjoy the brews, man. They are some of my favorite homers for sure.


    PS - I warned you to expect retaliation :cross:

    Haha I told SWMBO that you either work at a butter factory or a grocery store. Well congrats on the job! Any chance you can convince them to send KS more good beer :D

    The selection you sent was awesome. They were semi cold when I opened them, so I may have to have the stash IPA when I get off.

    PS - I will get you back when you least expect it ;)

    I'll see what I can do, but since our domain is limited to TX I guess I'll just have to ship you samplers haha. Thanks man I'm stoked to get in the game. The interview was priceless too: Walked in, suit-and-tie, sat down, bossman says, "I've already decided I'm gonna hire you, so let's talk numbers and I'll show you around the warehouse." I was speechless. :ban:

    I look forward to your rebuttal :drunk: prost bro

    Just got one from coyote68! Went home to grab my credit card before an appointment and met the UPS guy there. Thank you so much Joe! What a selection and the cold pack did wonders! Cant wait to try all your homebrews, especially excited about the kreik. I will be breaking into the growler after work, and it was the pale ale you sent me. Couldnt be happier man, thanks!!
