MLB 13 run BIF

Thanks y'all. @bigaltemple Glad to see everything made it okay. I'm always happy to share the Short's love! I hope you didn't have too many of those when you were in MI over the 4th. Cheers, buddy!

 

Ah, what the heck. I'll run it again. Next team to get no-hit gets a box. If it's a perfect game, I'll throw in a six pack of whatever Short's seasonal is currently out (Key Lime at the moment, MMMKay is up next) and a bottle of Arcadia BBA Shipwreck.

If the Tigers are the ones to get no-hit, I'll post a YouTube video of me taking a six pack of Short's and a bottle of Shipwreck to the dome. Because that's how self-destructive I'll be.

 

I've only had a couple of them. One of which is the Smells Like... which I have no qualms about drinking more of.

 

Didn't they get no hit the last game of the season last year before the playoffs started? It was bad juju man.

 

That's why I started it in the first place! It's the worst getting no-hit, but to take it into the playoffs...ugh.

 

I first saw this post in email on my iPhone. I saw the first picture and thought, "nice box of MI goodness" then I scrolled down a lil more and the haul doubled. Hell of a mini box @JamesShoemaker!!

 

I've won two minis centered around player or team futility while my Brewers are having their best season ever... one for Carlos Gomez striking out 4 times in one game and one for the Brewers going 0-7... looking at the schedule, we got the Giants and Dodgers August 5th through 10th... I'll send you my address.

 

There is a box of beer headed out today to someone in this group, for no real reason, with some beers I am sure they will be happy to enjoy.

I hope that is vague enough.

 

I need it anyway for thank-you boxes to you and Damian for running such a killer BIF.

 

The first thing I do to identify you guys is look at your avatars, which resulted in me just asking myself, "who the fuck is the new guy with the Eagles helmet?"

 

Great Box o' beers from @leftoverburrito 's Lucky 17 mini-BIF.
Bourbon County Barleywine
Hair of the Dog Fred
Hair of the Dog Adam
2012 Bourbon Barrel Aged Plead the 5th
All wants. Thank you very much Nate!

 

I'm humbled by that box. Humbled and jealous! Well played @leftoverburrito.

 

Great box! I just had my first Adam a couple of weeks ago...delicious.

 

I couldn't wait to dig into the beers & drank the Adam last night. I agree. It was delicious.

 

Wish we had a mini BIF for over/under Derek Jeter mentions at the All Star game...jeez. Worse yet, not a single mention of Mr. Padre Tony Gwynn RIP. Shitty.

 

Glad everything made it! The Adam and Fred are both from 2011. Great carbonation on both those batches as well. Cheers!

 

Be warned good sirs: we have a ninja amongst us! He does not go by @pa-Ohioan or @pa-notredamer. But he's a mutha truckin ninja nonetheless. Pics to follow.

 

Find me a more conscientious and generous BA on this site than @PA-Michigander and I'll be shocked. Unexpected ninja box arrives today. See who it's from and think, "hmmm...that box is small for Nick." Then I pick it up and realize it is the most dense box I've picked up in awhile. Intrigue sets in.



And I find an assload of boat (my favorite session beer and permawant!), a MCTW (want), and a BA Blackout Stout (a want I've never had but will remedy within the week).

Folks, simply as a result of my beerlationship (tip of the cap @hansenm72), I've ticked off probably 20-25 wants and a bunch of should be wants. I try to fight back but that dude wins trades (the right way). Thanks Nick!

 

Saw you post about how Boat is your favorite session beer and I had just gotten a bunch of it. I had also mentioned that I had a BA Blackout to send down your way. Great beerlationships are so much more fruitful than trying to win trades. That's not what it is about whatsoever. Enjoy!

EDIT: And to think we may have never sent each other a single box if it weren't for that shitty Badgers team in the bowl game (sorry @hansenm72 if you're a Badger fan).
