    I guess that means we need more practice. I wonder how that could be accomplished?

    Dibs on @Amarangakis for next round of BIF. Incredible box. And honestly there hasn't been one haul post yet that I wouldn't love to have landed on my doorstep. You guys are doing great work so far. Excited to get mine in @RuckIt's hands soon and to find out what I've got headed my way.

    Interesting thought.... could have a "12 DoX: Expert" and "12 DoX: Beginner"

    I think more realistically we'd do it more like we did one of the rounds in the Locals where you announced up front if you wanted to be close to the limit or send a porch nuke, it ended up being one huge round with two different criteria depending on the level of commitment you wanted to make.

    If you really want to nuke a porch, send boxes of Tired Hands Growlers. Send a face mask in the first box though, safety first.

    Box 1 was loaded with cans.
    2 x Other Half Brewing-All Green Everything. This was a big want.
    2 x Other Half Brewing-Hop Showers. Should have been want.

    This is my first time trying anything from Other Half. Looking forward to them all....

    Forgotten Boardwalk-What Butler Saw
    Forgotten Boardwalk- Funnel Cake
    Forgotten Boardwalk-Morro Castle
    Forgotten Boardwalk- 1916 Shore Shiver
    Forgotten Boardwalk is a brewery I have not heard of but looking forward to trying out some of there brews.

    On to the big boys...

    Single Cut Beersmiths- BON BON
    Single Cut Beersmiths- Does Anybody Remember Laughter?
    Another brewery I have not heard about, but looking forward to trying out.

    I heard a lot about Grimm, this will be the first thing I try from them.

    Trillium Brewing - Congress Street Big Want
    Trillium Brewing - pot & kettle Should have been want

    I've heard so many good things about Trillium, but have only had the chance to try one of there beers. Artaic was great
    and I've been trying to get my hands on more to try.

    Kane - Sunday Brunch
    Another brewery I've heard nothing but great things about, but haven't been able to get my hands on. Sunday Brunch sounds so good, looking forward to finally giving it a try.

    Scott, thanks so much for all the great beers. A great combination of things I've been seeking out and others I have yet to hear about. Every bottle sent is new to me.

    I discovered today that my local UPS store closes at 6. My box is packed and ready to go, but I missed the cut off. Alas, the Lone Star state will see some "barbecue sauce" headed its way Manana.
