Quick timeline update --
Covid sucks, winter weather is the worst, and this January is absolutely nothing like the past several years. In recognition that things are a bit crazy at the moment I'm going to push back the "big reveal" by at least a week, and recommend people not stress about shipping if they can't make the 18th.
I recognize that this may create logistical difficulties for people which I did not ask about at the onset of this -- If you are not able to receive packages through roughly the end of the month (and haven't received your box!) please reach out to me and I will work something out with your Santa.
Please stay safe everyone -- You will get beer, even if I have to can it myself.
Doesn’t matter! You can reveal yourself as a Santa, you can reveal who you think your Santa is as a giftee, it’s drunken Santa - blame it on the hooch!Kinda ruined the reveal part on my end. Oops.
Thanks for looking out though! It’s kinda crazy right now. A neighboring school system didn’t have enough bus drivers to take kids home today.
I’ll go ahead and volunteer for some of that Thorrak HB though.
Aww man, why did you post this? Procrastination is my superpower. If I don’t have to ship by the 18th, I may put it off another week for no good reason.Quick timeline update --

Thanks @Thorrak for sharing this. It is crazy times for sure and sometimes it feels like it will never end. UGH! With that being said, whomever is my Secret Santa, please don't worry about shipping on time to me. Family, work, life is general is more important than a package of beer shipped to aQuick timeline update --

Awesome!!Finally was able to pick some lager from one of my favorite local breweries yesterday, so mine went out the door today! This was my first year doing the swap, and it was great fun shopping for beers. I even discovered a few new breweries that I now love! Thanks to Thorrak for handling the admin on this!
No dry January nonsense here, but I’m a very patient person. Whoever is sending me beer can take their time and do what’s best for them.
... Someone did not understand the size limit.My box arrived today, and I definitely think this counts as going above and beyond! Couldn't be more excited to try these, especially all the different options from Other Half. And thanks for including a cider! My wife is gluten free, so it's great to be able to share something with her! Guess I'll just have to drink the rest myself. Cheers, everyone!
There's always someone in the group who causes @Thorrak some high blood pressure... Ok maybe more than just one, there's still a lot of Santas out there. LOL... Someone did not understand the size limit.
Just make sure you have my address correct. I don't want to have to cart all that over from a neighbor's house.
Pm me for my address...lol
Uh, your uh, giftee had an uh… new address?
Well..I just checked and my recipient's package is in their neighboring state....and that location along w/the destination doesn't appear to have any inclement weather at the moment...
So..brown truck should hurling said package at their doorstop by "Tuesday, January 18 by 9:00 P.M."
I apologize ahead of time, my package will go out monday. been a shi show the last few weeks.
I would be lying if I said I never did anything like this.Dropped mine off last night. Apologies for the box and packing materials to my recipient, I usually just use a box that I have on hand, and that’s what I did. The box was a bit big for the contents, so there’s a lot of packing materials. I swear I didn’t just ship my recycle bin, there’s beer in there too.
Merry Christmas to me!Confirmed. Arrived in city at 0534 this morning, out for delivery at 0859.
I've used White Labs yeast. Same company on those IPAs or just a coincidence?
The same, I believe. I think I heard one time that they run their own brewery. I'm looking forward to tasting them!I've used White Labs yeast. Same company on those IPAs or just a coincidence?
