Mine too!
Edit: Don't know how I screwed up this response. I meant mine is close to it's destination, not too crazy sent today. But I'm sure everyone will appreciate their brew gifts, and not worry about arrival dates. RDWHAHB!

Mine was apparently received today. Hoping to hear that it arrived in one piece. Well, there was more than one bottle, so technically more than one piece, but...

Received mine today! Sadly subzero temperatures caused both homebrew bottles to freeze and one of them to leak :( the two purchased brews were unscathed though, letting them thaw and will drink them at least flat!

Sorry to hear that D34THSPAWN, I have been worrying about the beers I sent out also freezing, it's been colder then $hitt everywhere, but I think the ones that didn't break won't be flat after they thaw out. I have forgotten and left beer in the freezer and once it thaws out it is still good.

So I got my beer boxed up & was planning on sending this AM, however it looks like today low will be 26 (according to weather.com, however it's 20 right now), Sat 26, Sun 19, Mon 10. Shipping from NJ down south. Do you think I may have freezing issues if I mail today? A bit nervous about the possibility of the beer sitting in a cold truck over the weekend...

Only advantage I see is that it will warm up with lows above freezing by Thurs next week up north.
