How long did you stay for? Did you get tagged at the border for all that? I ask because I'm heading across this weekend.

Usually I love it but the last bottle we drank (purchased 2 in Michigan) had a wierd peanut buttery note that totally ruined it for me! Hoping the last bottle is better.

Got a 6ft all-fridge. Tempered glass shelving, crisper draws are full of beers as is every space in the door. There's a mix of bottles of all sizes.

Best thing ever bought from Craigslist 4 1/2 years ago!

Currently I have a 6 pack of Smashbomb, and a bottle of Del Ducato Verdi Imperial Stout. 99% of everything is usually down in the cellar.
