FotD Secret Santa Beer Swap

[pshankstar]

My box is scheduled for delivery today!

I also have a box scheduled for delivery today!! Keep your eyes open

Mine is out for delivery today too. I can’t wait to see all the posts tonight with these beer boxes!

 

[Scturo]

The suspense of this round is a killer for sure. Every day I wonder if today is the day, and from who, and what brewery, and what beers,...I need a beer.

 

[TheEagleRising]

PLEASE one of these be me[emoji16]

 

[TwistedGray]

PLEASE one of these be me[emoji16]

You'll get your box tomorrow, but I hardly think that's the one you're waiting on, lol. Hey, beer is beer, right? ...and it's technically a secret as to which TRB I sent : )

I tell you want, you just call me your Saturday Secret Santa, and it's a win-win!!

 

[gromitdj]

Looks like I am one of the lucky ones!

But, since he only used his real name on the package, I have to assume it's @CTownBrewer! Can't wait to get home and unpack this baby. Too bad it got delivered so early in the day. Makes for a long wait...

 

[gromitdj]

Life's too short to wait! I took a peek and couldn't help myself once I did. Holy Fudge, this is awesome! Thanks @CTownBrewer (I hope)

We did have a casualty, though...

I will properly toast to it when I enjoy my first one this weekend.

Any recommendations where to start? It'll be my 1st foray into the Rare Barrel.

Thanks again!

DAMN

 

[GnenieGone]

Ditto!

DAMN

 

[TwistedGray]

Yum! @gromitdj

I'd go for the 2016 bottle of Bellatrix myself, but then again that's just me.

Damn! Sorry about the break. I originally had the 5 club bottles set aside, but there seemed to be space left, so I threw in the Rye Barrel Home Sour Home. For what it's worth, I liked the Rye HSH much better than the bottle that broke.

Aside from Rye HSH, the Bellatrix & For Ever More are probably my 2 favorite club releases they've had since I've been a member. Playing For Keeps is a great tropical summer sour. Age of Exploration is more subtle.

Glad you haven't had much Rare Barrel. Shipping to someone also in California was a little stressful, since you could probably get a lot of what I have access to. Cheers!

I haven't had any, so I'm super stoked. Thanks for the tips, and thanks for the beer.

The good news is, the whole office smells wonderful!

So what you’re saying is that you ended up at 127fl oz of beer?

Seriously though, broken beers suck but Rare Barrel is some damn good beer. That’s an amazing box!

 

[pshankstar]

Someone has some beer. Woohoo!!

Cheers bud and happy birthday!! I’m glad it all made the cross country trip intact.
I haven’t tried Honor System or Deep Orbit yet.

I swear to god I’m going to write a post about how to measure 128 fl.oz. at the end of this round.

View attachment 660468 last minute pick up. Secret Santa coming at ya!! Shipping tomorrow

Haha. Love the sneak peak. I suppose you used that glass for a reason huh? I seam to have recurved two of those beers today. I could not have picked a better box myself. As always, thanks and cheers. My first beer is to you.

 

[jerbrew]

Hot damn! That looks like a FotD box!!

That looks like a locals only box.

 

[TwistedGray]

No clue where this came from. Did I just adopt two red headed kids? I'll give it a shot, I guess.

UPS truck temperature beer

 

[TwistedGray]

PS: clueless as to where this originated...also, haven't seen any of these beers on HBT. Maybe the Pseudo? Yeah, that kind of lost...

That Trillium wild is hands downs their best beer. Clean. Funky. Basic. Old school trillium

 

[GnenieGone]

I miss Austin.

@PianoMan

You wouldn't miss the traffic. Too many people moved in too fast. What's that thing on his head? A hat? A cowboy hat? Don't be silly, hipsters don't wear cowboy hats! [emoji6]

 

[GnenieGone]

The REAL Steve Austin!

 

[mullet6577]

I broke out the fancy glassware while packing a box last night. It'll start its journey to *redacted* this afternoon

 

[HopsNTails]

Seeing that box is going to give @Thorrak a heart attack
