I just email them and requested an exchange for one I can wear. I hope they reply....
Other wise it will go to the highest bidder and I will put the preceeds toward buying one I can wear.

Here is the email I sent........
------------------------------------------------
I was jumping up and down excited to receive my Samuel Adams Varsity jacket in the mail for making it to the final round in the Holiday Homebrew Competition. But my joy turned to disappointment when I saw it was it was an XL.
I am 6' tall and weigh 135 lbs dripping wet. It would look pretty tacky to have an XL jacket hanging on my tall skinny frame. In the past I have won homebrew competitions and if they sent me an XL T-shirts I had to just give them away, which takes the joy out of the whole thing. I really don't want to just give this jacket away as it is the main reason I took the time to package and ship my entries in and the anticipation was killing me, then excitement when I won it. Is there any way I can send it back and get one I can wear? I will pay for the shipping both ways. I really, really would like to show this prize off.
I was hoping to receive a letter or email requesting my size, but never did. Please let me know where to ship it in exchange for a Large if I can. Even a large is a little big, but I need a large for the sleeve length. I was all excited about wearing it to my Homebrew Club meeting and showing it off and talking up the next Samuel Adam's Competition to encourage members to enter. I have not opened the plastic it is still sealed. Please let me know what to do. I am sure any of our larger club members would gladly take it, but I don't think I could bear the disappointment I would feel every time I saw them wearing my prize :^(
Thank you,

I just checked the Samuel Adam's Site.
The only size the jacket comes in is XL.....
I guess I just have to wear a huge jacket. I wonder if I can have it altered?
