I just opened the package today (which took a good while)! Great job with the packing!! The item looks great and is as advertised. It is a birthday present for my husband so he is the real expert. He loves Hampden Ale advertising so I think this will be well accepted. My Dad had one years and years ago so it is near and dear to me also. I will let you know my husband’s response after his birthday. Thank you
