The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

I was thinking this as well. I'm also thinking if I win I'll redirect to one of you other sorry lots that doesn't have enough beer...maybe @whyteboy003 ? I've won what feels like a shitload of LIF's lately...time to spread the love.

Funny you should say that! We're actually having a morning party at the office tomorrow with donuts, mimosas, bloodies, etc. Not to celebrate my 30th birthday but to celebrate the first ULA launch that will be 100% reliant on our systems. Here's hoping they took some notes from SpaceX's recent flub.

Uh...I can be at your house in an hour this time of night...just saying...

Cheers buddy! Instead of a box, we should meet for a handshake next time I'm in FL! (figured it was worth a try)

 

Definetly no redirecting to me!

Maybe you should design a drone that could deliver 64 baby duckies from CT to Miami!

Nice try! Would love the handshake (Steve told me you have pretty hands) but your porch isn't safe

 

VBS - Earlier beer I shared with the wife today. Local IPA from TN. Quite tasty. Some of you tried it already and expect it in future boxes.


By the way, @whyteboy003 , I guess your 12 Days boxes were "okay"...

 

Either i did something wrong, or im just not trying hard enough.. but the day i can split an IPA growler with the girl is the day i can die a happy man.

 

If it is an IPA, she is always game. I would say it probably went 2/3 me 1/3 her though.

 

Have I mentioned I love this group?!

 

I tried to get fancy and it didn't work. All you need to know is this beer is courtesy of the amazing 8th wonder @NickyPogs

 

They day the ol' lady asks for half of my growler, I'm getting a divorce.

 

The 'MC' started off liking IPA's.. now she's into sours, saisons, pales. Thank god she doesn't like "dark beers"

 

@PA-Michigander is trying to kill me tomorrow. . I hope my 12 days sender decided to take it easy on me.

 

But wait, how do people sign up?

 

Yes. Yes I am! You can defer it to whenever works best for you!

 

You have to signup via random.com.

 

Almost forgot, I have challenge rward pron to share... @vitaminvert must have thought that Death was along the lines of Stone's Crime and Punishment beers (fortunately it was more like poor man's Mexican Cake) because he rewarded me like I did something really impressive...

 

It said to inquire about the domain, so I put in your email address and telephone number. Hope you're okay with that.

 

Ha! I feel the exact same way. I practically had to beg mine to have some cider last night. Cider! (Got it with her in mind to begin with)

 

I'm slackin' off in getting this posted, but there it is.

NBO - Horizontalhood Trip #12
If you would like to be in consideration to be the recipient of a 6-shipper box filled with great stuff, please BM me your shipping address (or just say "it's in the directory"). If you would prefer to skip this trip and sign up for a future trip, don't send me anything and wait for the next person to post their NBO to sign up. Also, please let me know IF there are any specific styles you do or don't like, since that may impact what's in the box or who I choose. Signup period ends at 11:59PM on Wednesday, June 17th. Wednesday night I will randomly select the recipient and start posting hints as to who it is. Box will be shipped shortly after the winner is chosen!

How Horizontalhood works:
1) Some of my favorite beers have come from a brewery “Sampler” trade where I ask my trading partner to throw in a whole brewery’s lineup. If I didn’t do this, I would have only had Lunch, and not a tiny beautiful something. I might have only had Jai Alai and not Tocobaga. I night have only had Miller Lite and not MGD (just seeing if anyone is paying attention). So the purpose of this BIF is to showcase your local brewery’s line up and send something that wouldn’t normally be asked for. Show that your local brewery is not a one trick pony.
2) The current holder of the Horizontalhood box will make a post in the Locals BIF thread saying that the signup period for the next Trip is open and will be open for 2 or 3 (or 9) days. Anyone that would like to be a potential target for the box would send their address information in a BM to the current holder of the box. To be eligible the person must have:
a) participated in Locals BIF rounds 1, 2 (summer 6'er), 3, 4 (Winter 6’er), ACJ BIF or be one of the new faces (avatars) that have recently joined us prior to this Trips NBO post -- that's basically the guys (and gal) in the directory and about 3 or 4 others.
b) have not already received the Horizontalhood box.
3) After the signup period is over, the current holder will randomly pick the next lucky recipient of the Horizontalhood box. They will not announce this person nor the number of people that signed up, but instead will start posting hints as to where the box is going (BIF style hints). If no one signs up to be the next recipient then, as the original founder, @Clarkson will be the final recipient (hopefully without him knowing that it is coming to him).
4) The holder of the Horizontalhood box will fill the box with high quality local bottles from A SINGLE LOCAL BREWERY ONLY, and ship it to the target. Make it a kickass box, but with this group of people I know we won't have to worry about that. Also, add the targets name to the tracking board in the box and add any 'decorations' that you wish to help commemorate the box's visit to your state. You may add one piece of swag in place of one beer, but it has to come from the brewery that is in the box.
5) Once the box is received by the target, they will post the pr0n for all to enjoy.
6) Start over at #1

You do not have to enter every signup period. You can pick and choose when you want to be in consideration to be the next recipient. This would be nice if the current holder of the box is from your own state or an adjoining state.
Cheers!

Sign ups will end at 11:59 PM ET on Monday, July 20th.

 

Happy birthday @vitaminvert! Welcome to your thirties!

How Sixterhood works:

1) The current holder of the Sixterhood box will make a post in the Locals BIF thread saying that the signup period for the next Trip is open and will be open for the next few days. Anyone that would like to be a potential target for the box would send their address information in a BM to the current holder of the box. To be eligible the person must have:
a) participated in Locals BIF rounds 1, 2 (summer 6'er), 3, 4 (winter 6'er), Anti Circle Jerk, or AA (current round).
b) have not already received the Sixterhood box.

2) After the signup period is over, the current holder will randomly pick the next lucky recipient of the Sixterhood box. They will not announce this person nor the number of people that signed up, but instead will start posting hints as to where the box is going (BIF style hints). If no one signs up to be the next recipient then, as the original founder, heystevec will be the final recipient (hopefully without him knowing that it is coming to him).

3) The holder of the Sixterhood box will fill the box with high quality local bottles or wants and ship it to the target. Make it a kickass box, but with this group of people I know we won't have to worry about that. Also, add the targets name to the tracking board in the box and add any 'decorations' that you wish to help commemorate the box's visit to your state.

4) Once the box is received by the target, they will post the pr0n for all to enjoy.

5) Start over at #1

You do not have to enter every signup period. You can pick and choose when you want to be in consideration to be the next recipient. This would be nice if the current holder of the box is from your own state or an adjoining state or if you are going to be out of town for a while or whatever. Jump in and out as you please.
