Quick testament and thanks to the members of Yankee Toys and the IH8MUD forum in general!
A few weeks ago I took a shot in the dark hoping to score some of your local craft beer called Heady Topper from Alchemist brewing. Probably no big deal to you lucky blokes in Vermont, but a California beer geek like me has been trying for literally 10 years to just get a sip! There isn't a liquor store or pub from San Diego to San Francisco that can source a single can...not even a drop. I have to give thanks to
@40Flipper for giving it a whirl a couple times but the local watering holes were dry.
Another one of your members who must be somewhat legendary in those parts
@albee sent me a PM saying he'd be happy to help. The guy went out of his way for weeks and finally hit pay dirt! Without hesitation he shipped me a package from Vermont to California and it landed on my doorstep when I returned from work today!!!!
A curious laundry detergent container filled to the max with sawdust...
Like a paleontologist unearthing the fossil remains of a brachiosaurus from the La Brea Tar Pits, I whisked away the top layer only to find an additional Vermont treasure!
With the anticipation of a kid on Christmas morning I dumped the sawdust and found the very elusive elixir that you're all so familiar with...
8 cans of the Heady capped with a jug of Vermont maple...
If you know
@albee I'm sure you know a very generous man who's nature it is to go out of his way for others. The Mud community (especially you Yankees) are a unique and courteous breed! I'll stop taking up all the thread space now and just say thanks from California!!!!
Thanks!!!
Eric
