    I'm sure I speak for many of us when I say I'm glad I'm not the only one who does stupid things like that.

    Boxes landing on a porch tomorrow, at which point my Beer Tax Lien and my crushing metaphoric boulder of shame can be lifted.

    Check the date the label was approved, each KBS label is a little different from the previous and each label has to be approved individually. Sorry that I can't recall the actual site, but I'm sure you're resourceful.

    So I learned a lesson about late night brewing past night.

    Don't do it.

    Didn't get done til 1:30 and had to wake up for work at 5. Man I'm hurting today.

    I feel the same way after late night drinking. Wonder if they could be connected?

    It is theoretically impossible to brew beer without also drinking beer. That's a direct quote from Socrates or Michaelangelo or Leonardo dicaprio or someone.

    Yeah late night brewing is only for weekends... I finished a batch (pitched) at 3am once, by the time I was done cleaning up (not even finished washing everything, just getting the kitchen cleaned up enough that my wife wouldn't kill me in the morning) it was almost 5

    So here's a thought that I'm trying to figure out how to make work for Round 2. It definitely sounds fun in theory. BIF in a Box Bang. Find someone local in the group, put together a 12 shipper of beer and ship to another team. Next team takes bottles, replaces bottles and ships out to a new team. Still trying to figure out if this would be possible for those that don't have someone living close. Just an idea for the time being.

    Idea compliments of @jpsboom

    Cool idea, and I don't want to be 'that guy' while I'm so new, but doesn't that mean each person on the 'team' gets fewer bottles each?

    I don't mind the idea of sharing the shipping cost for a >50# box, but I was looking forward to 6 bottles from someone at the cool kids table. (also, there's lots of people in the philly area, and I'm definitely the 'get picked last' kid)

    Being a "new guy" to this thread, don't judge too harshly here :slight_smile:

    I like the idea. I am in IL. @IPAFan521 is also in IL. Perhaps it's time to make a new friend for something just like this.

    Yeah very similar to Gangbang. But instead of a group of people getting together to drink, it'd just be two guys getting a box and splitting the beers evenly to take home. I guess you could drink them on the spot too. Up to you. Like I said, really haven't thought this through yet.
