Someone has a BIF waiting at their front door!

 

[fernsanity]

Think that's me! Thanks so much Javier! Totally unexpected and such a sick BIF. I always enjoy hops and just getting into sours so I'm PSYCHED to get into these. Your homebrews sound awesome, especially the stout! Thanks again!!View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1421192909.195066.jpg

 

[Javier25]

I am so glad they got there safely. I was pretty worried. I hope you enjoy the Colorado love! Feedback on the homebrew would be greatly appreciated. (They're on untappd) Cheers!

Sounds like you're shipping it about 20 miles south?

Probably maybe. It's definitely located in a city I've driven through before, I think.

BIF out for delivery in longitude 78.800208
Once it drops on a front door I'll give the latitude

Here's hoping the ice packs in that box have done their job well. Ive picked out another recipient and will have something to ship out in a few weeks further out west, I think.

 

[Hello]

Haha it sure as **** did @finsfan

My god! So I get this package and I'm confused. Open it and wtf? All of this? Take a cake out to eat and find cheesesteaks?! Thank you so much @beermeduffman !! Too generous.

So can I keep the steaks and the pretzel in the fridge and heat them in an oven?

Yep 300-375 until warm throughout. Was the ice pack still intact? If there was still some slush going on in that bag, everything in the mini-box should be good to go.

Definitely slush, a bit of a small block in the center. Everything felt cold so I'm not worried and I'm a weirdo about food so that says a lot.

Man, thank you. I didn't know what I ordered from that company on the FedEx label. I thought this was another drunk purchase like the cat t-shirt off Woot.com I got last week. ****ing bright green t-shirt with a guy laying on the couch with a cat saying something about lazy days. I mean, what the **** is that? haha So looks like those aren't the porch lights I was eyeballing while drinking after all. They were expensive...this box was better.


If you think I'm joking about drunk shopping you should see my punching bag. It is rad though and I use it often.

LOL I leave my debit card with either the bar tender to keep my tab open or with my wife to ensure I don't go off doing just that.
Good thing that made it. Meat season has just hit the BIF thread. I'll be sending out another box next week or the week after I think. I've already picked that recipient.
Glad you enjoyed the box, and it looks like you finally got that SpringHouse bottle you wanted, with a little extra, too

 

[TheCADJockey]

I want a punching bag

Instead when I have a bad day I just drink IPA's until it's time to try to crawl up the stairs to bed, and end up halfway up the staircase crying myself to sleep.

EDIT:

Just kidding.

I don't have room for a punching bag.

 

[WesleyS]

That's awesome! Next time I grant an eMAW, I'm putting cheesesteaks on my list.

I really did and you did great. Such a great treat! I'm excited about everything, especially the quad.

I don't just accept any man's meat, but when I do, steak wins every time.

HAHA I laughed so hard.
I actually went to a beer festival once, came back to a bar and drank, then drank more outside with neighbors. I walked upstairs and had this moment where I said aloud, "I can do it!" Meaning, I could easily jump down 14 stairs without incident. I woke up at the top of the stairs, without injury. I was thankful that I actually didn't stay awake long enough to do it.

Amazing! In November we hit the bars pretty hard for my birthday, which is a feat in itself considering that means I got my friends to leave their house. The following morning as we exchanged stories, piecing back together our memories... I told them how awesome it was at this bar and how it was so good to see Amy again.

Yeah we never went to that bar and I don't know anyone named Amy. Told them this story completely sober.

lol... time travel..

This is hilarious!

And good thing you didn't jump!
I fell down like 5 wooden stairs at my house a couple years ago and my side/backfat was purple for a week. And I wasn't even bombed (yet)

Speaking of drunk purchases, I once bought a $1,200 paintball gun on eBay at 3:00 AM...

Is that used for target practice against unicorns?

 

[wobrien]

Luckily I used it a few times and sold it at the end of the summer for almost $1,100. I got lucky.

I didn't use it while drinking or I might have actually shot some unicorns

Not beer, but I just completed a pay it forward in the workings since 1998.

You guys may not know this, but I am a professional tattoo artist. Albeit I am not working full time, only when I am needed by friends who own shops or if I have someone that wants something done. Anyway, I was gifted my first set of machines by an unknown source whom only asked for me to pay it forward in the industry.

There is an apprentice 2 hours from here whom I have been following. He has the talent, and I knew he was the "one". I also build machines, so I built him a nice little machine and shipped it up to him. He has received it and was stoked that someone would actually do that. What can I say? I'm a nice guy.

Awesome gesture! I'm still looking for 'my' artist so I can get some sleeves. I had a bad experience with my first so I'm being picky now.

Good idea, do your research. You will know when you find the right artist. There are hundreds of amazing tattoo artists who aren't thrown in the spot light that is reality television.

 

[BeerMeDuffMan]

I'll never forget my first tattoo; freshly minted 18 years old out in 29 Palms California. There was nothing in that town except tattoo shops, pawn shops and barbers. I walked around for a good three hours before I found a shop blaring the Greatful Dead and smelled like pot. Good times
