It is about that time of year again!!  Tomorrow we open the first beer of the month!  A couple months ago I started wondering how we were going to pull this year’s box off, since I had every intention of purchasing a box put together from the Craft Beer Cellar in Clayton, MO – however, they closed their doors… the one issue we did run into last minute was tissue paper… didn’t have quite enough, so it’s a bit mismatched this year.  The overabundance of address labels we get, writing with a sharpie next to an image sure worked out, especially since I had an issue finding small enough stickers with the Christmas theme.

SPECIAL thanks to the Buckhorn, which is located in Trout Lake, MI, where we absolutely love to go to have a few beers, enjoy the wonderful food and be around good company.  The service is always amazing as well.   We were able to purchase single beers to help fill our box and we are very thankful for being able to do that.

Also, SPECIAL thanks also goes to Provisions in Boyne City!  The selection of craft beer was amazing and there are many that I’m excited for us to try this year!
