    I feel like 98% of us have this question (maybe not with quite the same relevance) in the back of our minds... the other 2% (very quietly) already have a connection, probably that they're afraid to share.

    I figured as much.

    With the sheer volume of releases de Garde has had lately, the locals there have no shortage of awesome beer! Some of the ISO posts for de Garde have been obscene and only further solidify the 'my de gardes are whales' mentality currently plaguing the town of Tilllamook.

    I have yet to be at a FL release where I was allowed to buy a mixed case of bottles and then turn around and trade them for 30+ bottles.

    Yeah because the greater Portland area was really hurting for beer before :rolling_eyes:

    Somehow my notification seemed to have fallen off for this thread... again. Oh well I am caught up now that I realized we were still trucking along!

    I actually do have a very solid and reliable De Garde hookup who I regularly trade with and is also willing to #pickitupformebro just needs PayPal to cover it. He doesn't really post on BA and isn't a big trader but I'd be happy to help if I can.

    Going to go ahead and revive this thread real quick just to make sure everyone remembers how incredible this BIF really was.... had a small share tonight with @vitaminvert and @3bthero and two of the three big boys (Coffee Abraxas and Black Note - via @vitaminvert) came from this very BIF!

    Another HUGE thanks to @DooshBagalow for sending me Coffee Abraxas!

    And a huge shout out to @Marti403 for that '11 batch 1 Black Note. Not only was it in pristine condition but it held its own against Rare, a truly impressive feat. This was a special beer for sure. Thanks again man!

    Hope everyone is good. Way too hot here in FL (as usual.)

    Any ideas for a Fall time-frame round 5??

    Settle down Florida-boy.
    It was 115 the other day here and still 99 at midnight. So we Arizona fools laugh at your frigid weather. :stuck_out_tongue:
    And I'm still drinking stouts from this BIF!
    I'd like to humbly suggest we start in Late September with shipping window beginning around Halloween so we can all be drinking dark malt juice at Thanksgiving. Oct/Nov is my favorite time of year for drinking.

    Thoughts?

    My thoughts are that January-December is my favorite time of year for drinking.

    I'd take 100+ dry heat over this 95-100 wet gross humid mess we have all the time.

    Can we all just move to San Diego for their annual 75 high 65 low Summer weather. haha

    Ahhhhh San Diego.... I'll be there this weekend fo rthe MT 2nd Anniversay!

    As for round 5... I think the Sep/Oct kick off sounds good with a shipping window of Halloween, then we will all DEFINITELY have MANY things to be thankful for :wink:

    Damn. I can't believe you guys still have this bad not going strong. I just caught up on the last 8 or so pages.

    Talk about a roller coaster of emotions!
