    It's time for round two of this one. I'm targeting a shipping deadline that'll be 4-6 weeks from now, likely in early May. It'll basically be the same rules as last time:

    - At least 6 beers, with a minimum of 150oz.
    - All beers must either:
    (1) be a want; or
    (2) have an rAvg of at least 4.0 on Beer Advocate at the time of shipping
    - All beers must be saisons or anything that is funky and/or sour. This includes all the sour styles on BA as well as any other beers that are listed under a different style, but were intentionally soured or inoculated with Brett.
    - If you can't hit wants, please try to find fun and exciting bottles / growlers that your target otherwise wouldn't likely be able to try.

    For reference, here's the link to the Hints & Hauls thread for round 1: http://beeradvocate.com/community/threads/sour-saison-funk-hints-and-hauls.32/

    Last time we had 23 participants. Preference will be given to past participants, though I can likely handle a few more for this one.

    Cheers!

    I'll get involved in this one if there is room. Saisons are my favorite style, and watching the hauls from last time I wish I would've gotten in earlier.

    Cheers!

    Sounds good! Just message me with your contact info.

    PS -- best avatar on the site! Let's hope Groce works out. I like his passion and upbeat style of play. Seems like he can recruit, so let's hope that transfers over to Illinois.

    Really enjoyed the first round, thanks again for setting that up and running things! I will sit out this round, but could see myself participating in rd 3 or 4 after I return from some travels.

    Yes, for sure. We're at about 10 participants so far. I'll give it a bit more time to get a few additional members. Right now we're a bit Midwest-heavy.

    Cool, jut seeing what's up and figured a bump couldn't do any harm. Looking forward to sending out some serious funk!

    I can't help any with the Midwest-heaviness, but I'd like to do this one again. Thanks much, Thorpe.

    Haha, it just got a bit heavier, but I'll figure that part out if it really becomes an issue. You're in, DaBubs. That makes 13.

    Let me know if your contact information has changed since round 1. If not, I've got you on the list!
