What a freaking smack down. And from the Mayor of Chicago to boot! Frankly, I'm honored. But dismayed that with all their issues she's distracting herself with humoring an old squid such as myself.
So, let's begin with an overview of the site damage in general.

Now a more detailed damage assessment.
The beverages consist of A Weller Special Reserve and a Three Floyds Dark Lord Demonic Russian Imperial Stout. That is a NH stout that is way up on my I wanna try list! Nice.

An Apache Armored travel case
A Plasencia ash tray
A very cool torch lighter and bottle opener.
A Beer on the Wall Sticker and bottle opener
And the tell tale, two OpFTH rocks Glasses.

I'm calling a huge thanks to our Ukranian buddy Ypetryna. I will admit to being confused as he alluded to being out? But the OpFTH swag and Beer on the wall goods point to his local. That's my best guess anyhow,.
I'm floored. Great Santa smackdown. Some amazing smokes, an absolutely perfect selection, I'm very excited to try these. Great beverages and cool swag to boot! Going to be a good holiday around here!
Thanks Yaro!
