I recieved 3 or 4 packages - will get the details out to you all asap. MY GF has the pics locked in her iphone. I will say I really enjoyed all of the beers - my buddy and I had a tasting Saturday all day from the lightest Kolsch to the darkest Belgian. Goes without saying but I really enjoyed them all. The best feeling is knowing the package arrived - I'm like a giddy schoolgirl everytime I get a message that a package has been received. Christmas has come early to me and I thank the community so much. What can be better than scoring 3 nights for me and my buddy on .Net - and then drinking sampling packages of beer from around the USA. I'm not religious at all thought I dig me some good church music - I feel blessed again to be apart of this community. I also could still have a beer buzz. Thanks again!

OK in the order they were recieved - not gonna get all nutty, and notes of caramel on you for these reviews.
@KimboSlice hooked me up with a home brew - Cheapside Porter. All I can say is wow - what a head!
Wish I could make beer like this - as a guy who grew up on Yuengling Porter all I can say is this was great. All the good things about porter were in there. I could drink 100 of them.
Also keeping it close to her home - a Michigan based Frankenmuth Oktoberfest Sesonal - delightfull.
Thanks again for everything!

Next up @Harrynuggs:I love when I get beers I have never heard of, froma brewery I have never heard of. Such was the case with the wonderfull array of beers from Wachusett Brewing Company - I'm probably still pronoucing it wrong.
Starting with a sprite Country Pale ale - real nice crisp and refreshing
Then to the IPA - not photo's - broken glass all over kitchen - Real nice, Love me some IPA - not overwhelming and forced - very nice.
MONSTA IPA - in your face PA - loved it.
The imperial is still in my fridge - I'll crack it tonight
Overall Great sampling - I would buy their beer again! THANKS SO MUCH!

Been drinking Long Trail since the first tiem I went to VT in the 80's - nice to see this:
"Hit the Trail" - Long Trail - English Brown Ale - yum! I love an english style brown - went really well with the food I was eating at the time - I ad never seen this one before or never noticed becuase all the labels look the same after a few pints. Very nice!
I'm a porter guy - saw Saranac and was like hmm - who knew they made a porter.
It was the 4059 Degree Porter - needed to reseach why they call it this - it was made 4059 above sea level. Man this was robust - really nice porter to get my juices flowing - everything a porter needs to be.
Lastly a berr i never had before - Saratoga IPA. Look I probaly have had 1000 IPA's in my life. And this one is near the tops - fresh, crisp, not to boozy - really nice. I think @spacecoyote works there - and now I cant figure it out are they in NY or owned by a place in mendicino or both. Anyway - really nice IPA - I can see a trip to the races in my future - along with a tour of the brewery. I could drink this all day long.
THANKS AGAIN!

Last review of the day - @mavisdavis - what a selection - over the top thanks again Mike.
OK from lightest to darkest:
Berkshire Brewing Company MA - Gold Spike Kolsch - what can I say - I'm a Kolsch guy too! Crisp, malty, felt like I was in Cologne - really germany and nice!
Mayflower IPA MA - really nice IPA from MA - not overhopped, not forced - piney/fruity - another IPA I could drink all day but could get hurt by it 7%
The comedy beer - which I have seen but never bought for myself. Clown Shoes Tramp Stamp Belgian IPA. Ive been diggin Clown Shoes for the last year - this Tramp Stamp was really nice - I mean they really do a nice job over there in Ipswich. Beatiful Color, sweet orange finish, malty - really nice.
Lastly a beer I have never heard of - Pretty Things Berr & Ale Project St. Boltolph's Town - Yorkshire Brown ale - wowzers - right up my alley. I love me a Yorkshire bitter brown and boy this was dead on - Malt in your face! I could also drink this for days - but I would fall down.
Really epic selction here.

Happy to represent Mass. and amazing that there were no repeats given the number of Mass and NE shippers. It's a beer revolution! We will look back on this time in beer history with great appreciation. There has been nothing like it in our lifetimes and we should all dig it while we can just like the fellas from VT. Happy you enjoyed yourself @mikednyc, sounds like a good session. Cheers!
