The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

So ive been a little lazy, I'll figure out the winner if the lif tomorrow. Might have to include a grape crush

 

@ninjembro - to you and your pup -

 

Very sorry to hear that, man.

 

VBS - because its "Thursday"

 

this is such an awesome beer

 

I'll join this one as well!

 

Sorry to hear that - toast to your pooch tonight.

Maybe I missed it, but never got his name?

 

He was Aaron. Not sure where we got the name, I think we just randomly chose it haha

 

Cheers to Aaron tonight.

I'm on my second Weimeraner - his name is Kasper but I grew up with dachshunds (Nikki and Pee Wee)

 

You can include me as well.

 

So lucky for us (at least those who choose to participate) the not Summer Sixer is going happen. I believe last time we tried to keep this to a 6 container package although some people (me included) through creativity did bend the rules. 6 x 750 ml containers would be 150 oz so lets set a max at that number. I think you could be a nice and balanced 6ish pack with wants, should be wants and of course locals involved because that's what this group is all about. I think a piece of brewery swag is a nice extra to include but certainly not a requirement for this sixer. I have already received some bm's so if you haven't sent me one yet please do. Be sure to include shipping info and style preferences/dislikes. I think @Mikexw was going to provide me a list of prior BIF pairs but it wouldn't hurt if everyone just included that in their BM since some of us have been paired up in other BIF's.

Shipping Window: I am going to make it a bit of an extended window because of the concerns with shipping in the cold. I am sure those of us who live in these climates are aware of the need to avoid boxes sitting in warehouses over the weekend and/or in sub zero temps but those BA's who enjoy Florida and Texas winters may not have encountered this. I would say a good window would be December 29th though January 19th to ensure a good weather window is selected with out the need to rush a box. As always I am sure their will be over achievers (@Kramerbarthomer will appreciate the early pr0n I'm sure).

Below is the list I currently have of interested parties for the Not Summer Sixer ie BIF round 4 (I think) of locals. If you are not on this list and want to be let me know. If you are not on this list and are on the fence get in. If you are not on this list and cannot pull the Not Summer Sixer off we will miss you. Cheers!

This is in fact Round 4, and can we just call it the Winter Sixer? And if you guys PROMISE to not make my box (that will in fact include no more than 6 bottles) look like total crap.... I guess you've twisted my arm into joining. I can't quit you guys. Just be sure to give me a target with wants I can get in 40oz increments to keep the cost down.

To my sender: I seriously am not going to let this get out of hand, so please don't go out of your way to wow me in any way shape or form.

 

Would love to participate but I'm going to have to sit this one out. So much other stuff going on. I'll be back though.

 

I think @I_BYE_MI_BEER said he wanted in on this too...

 

Not Summer 6er AKA Round 4 AKA Winter 6er
updated participants list
Assuming I can get all the information in ASAP the goal I will set to assign targets will be by December 6th

BM sent with shipping/past target/sender info. For this round I'm going to try to hit as many wants as I can as long as I can get them locally. Although given the shipping window, I'm pretty sure nugget nectar will be in this box regardless of it being a want or not...

 

Also FedEx just dropped a box with some crab chips in it...could only be the work of @heystevec...we lined up a little side action and he dropped this box of delicious on me.

4 x wake n bake I really enjoyed last year's
Moohoochiato chocolate coffee stout yes please
Double duck pin in a can!
Beechwood Melrose ipa new to me sexy label and sounds delicious

Thanks again Steve!

 

In for the Sixer

 

Damnit this list of people for the sixer is too good to pass up. Count me in @UcDru . And make sure not to give me @Lehighace06 as a target since I don't plan to send 6 shelf turds

 

Yes, no @Lehighace06 for me either, I also do not plan to send 6 shelf turds
