    @Weissie welcome, and thanks for the chance but I'm not gonna guess because if I do I will win (I'm on a hot streak) and I am already on the wrong side of the beer scales and need to give some out before taking more in.

    The talk of infection scared, so damn glad they weren't true. No signs of issue, but damn this is so damn tasty! Thank you to @treznor for this absolute gem.

    I think I'm going to keep the minimum where it is, but set expectations that it is a minimum but also the realistic expectation on total volume, if anyone goes over 200oz it's entirely to their own peril. At the very most, I may lower the minimum later, like as signups are closing, and also set a hard max, to send the message that this is not a peen measuring contest, and is ONLY a way to expose new people to the BIF game. I have a 12 shipper in mind for this, and not necessarily one full of bombers.

    @dwmetsfan13 blew up my porch. He sent me a message inquiring about getting some Casey a few weeks ago and told me he was headed up to HF in the near future. Well that wasn't all...

    Lets put this in proper context: A few months ago @Devman171 and @Syracuse12 found out they would in the next town over from me, on the same week, and we bounced ideas back and forth how we call all get together, with my crazy work schedule and them traveling with wives and children.

    We settled on a possible date, today. Than I loose 3 -4 full time employees a few weeks ago, but I should still be able to do something. Than my wife is schedule for an out patient procedure where she had to be put to sleep on Monday. So I expressed her feeling well depending on what we could do, and a small BBQ at my place would be the safe bet for her recovery as well. Than last week a full time driver fails his 6 month MVR, terminated. Than yesterday as all seemed a go, we get a cal that our one employee might have had a stroke and was going to the ER. Well it wasn't a stoke but Bell Palsy. She is a school teacher who works for us full time in the summer. Just too many things happened at once, I had to pull the plug on the BBQ, which my wife who was weirded out by strangers coming to her home last week, flipped out on me for being so rude, and she could work tonight till 2am so someone else could cover the day shift, as I was already scheduled to work till 10pm. Yeah, my wife recovering from surgery will work 2 days into her recovery so I can drink beers and BBQ. I was too smart for that trap.

    So @Syracuse12 made the mistake of saying he was still dropping stuff on my porch, so I pulled some beers together from what I was planning on serving, plus some minor toys I got, since my wife and I are childless. To reverse Ninja him. Im sorry though I swapped out the Chocolate Rain for the Black Tuesday. I was planning on opening the chocolate rain today, but since I have yet to have it, and have had Black Tuesday 2-3 times now, I figured I would give that as an extra. Mean while @Devman171 ninja'd me in true style without saying so, and I didn't have a reverse ninja box waiting for him and his daughter, but Ill find a way to take care of that.

    Actually, a hard max isn't a terrible idea. Until one guy goes over...

    After spending 15 minutes decoding what exactly im trying to guess here...

    Ill go with 25 ticks.
    I think you asked what your top beer has been? ill go with Bourbon County Coffee.

    And as far as this part "Bonus points if you choose to play, what beers as ive had in said list! Your correct guess if in cellar/ available you will receive as bonus upon said generous box," are you asking us to list out specific beers to our guessed number? Just going to list out the mega whales im ISO because...well why not.
    BA Vanilla Bean Dark Lord
    KBBS
    Focal Banger
    Goose Island Prop
    BA Abraxas.

    Thanks and welcome man.
