USPS was supposed to deliver the package I sent today but it seems to be stuck in the void.

Found my package stuffed full when I opened the box I received in the mail.

Funnily enough, my wife has degree in entomology and used to have a solid collection of insects she pinned herself.

Nice work Elf!

Awesome mix of beers, what smells like goooood coffee, turtles and very exclusive RM coasters.
No handle though, just the real name on the shipping label. I think it's @Westy but I don't know fo sho.

Always love seeing the array of local things. I didn't know Rogue made a whiskey.

That death star glass is pretty cool looking, and 3 Floyds is usually :drool:

The shadow box with the bike parts is super creative, too!

@Nick seems to have had his package in transit forever thanks to the holiday, but it finally got here!

Awesome haul with 3 local crowlers of IPA that look amazing. Is noon too early to start drinking on a work day?

Would love to hear the story of the (apparently hand-painted) hat, and is the honey yours or someone you know?

Sanchez loved the honey and tolerated the hat :D

hey BV. So glad that finally arrived, and sorry for the delay!

the IPAs are all great and award winning CO brews. I hope you like them.
The hand painted cap is by a local artist Danielle Leckron. Her website is down but she does amazing work, all mountain themed. Her large format paintings of CO and UT are incredible. That hat is of the front side of a local ski area called Arapahoe Basin, as seen when coming down Loveland Pass.
Finally the honey is by a friend who keeps bees. It's the best honey I've ever had, incredibly fresh and 100% CO happy bee-made.

thanks for everything you do here. Cheers!
