Some people have good friends, some people have great friends. Well, I have one friend that is amazing. I live in hawaii.....I know, I live the tough life.....but seriously hawaii isn't all it's cracked up to be. Visiting here might be fun but living here is ok. Beer is expensive and the selection is slim out here. Homebrew supplies isn't cheap either. So anyways, back to my friend. He was kind enough to send me a sweet care package from Vermont.

Not the best picture but all great beers. 2 of which are heady topper. Hard enough to get in Vermont let alone hawaii. He had bought a case for himself. Well.......he said he sent me 3. But I only received 2. He actually had the people at UPS help him package the beer. Apparently the UPS person stole a HEADY TOPPER before it got packaged up.. Bummer man. Honestly who does that?!

The case of heady topper he bought for himself, was put in his luggage for his flight home to South Carolina. He said the TSA guy told him 8 beers bursted in the his bag and they removed them. The only thing was, he didn't have a drop of beer in the bag. You would think if a beer exploded, his clothes would be wet right? So, I guess the TSA guy jacked 8 heady toppers from him. He waited for about 2 hours in a line with about 200 people for these beers! ****, just ain't right.

Anyhow, great guy and a amazing friend. How could I repay him?

Also, I hope karma catches up to those folks that robbed him of his beer he bought with his hard earned cash.

He should've filed a complaint right then & there,showing them that nothing in the suitcase was wet. Then they could bust the sticky fingered employees. Who knows how many others they ripped off?!
 
Call your buddy's UPS store and tell them you'll provide the antidote for $50, no questions asked. ;)
 
That is awesome and surprising UPS was willing to help package beer since technically he shouldn't be shipping beer.

Anyway, maybe the UPS guy thought the can of HT was the price to keep his mouth shut about sending beer.

Your friend is very kind.

Thieving b***tards. "They all burst in my bag, eh? Hey, where'd that turnip truck go? I just fell off of it a second ago ..."
