    I wonder if there will be beer Pr0n or if he already drank the box.

    Need a little more light in the man cave. @pnelting will give you some lessons. His mini studio shots lately have been nice.

    I'll post a BTS shot later. Right now it's just thrown together, but when time allows I have improvements in mind.

    I am just trying to learn the tricks of the trade from the great @pnelting. Garbage bag, box in a box, seasonal tape colors, massive amounts of bubble wrap, etc.

    I think I'm about out of beers from this BIF. Maybe one more.

    Safety cones or party hats?

    Nice! Thought it was a small softbox based on the reflections I've seen. Have you played with moving the box around or a 2nd light source?

    Depends on how many beers consumed.

    Just thrown together. I may experiment some this weekend. Only have the one speed light.

    Just got home from work to find my girlfriend attacking a box with a knife. After I wrested it (the box) away from her and defended myself from her wild slashings, I was able to dive into what appears to be a LIF box from @jschott75. Inside an incredibly complex array of six pack holders, extra pieces of cardboard, plastic baggies of assorted sizes, a garbage bag, and roughly 1 metric ton of bubble wrap I discovered six wonderful bottles of liquid from the North.

    [​IMG]
    Central Waters - Bourbon Barrel Scotch Ale: a great style from a great brewery. I've had a few beers from them and liked them all.
    Toppling Goliath - Rover Truck: This will be my 4th toppling goliath beer, and maybe I can fib and say I've had a TG Stout now and have a big beerpeen!
    Troublesome - I love everything about Off Color. Label Art, Style selections, etc. Can't wait to see what they do with a Gose.

    And then a trio of New Glarus beers, which I always love to drink no matter how much Diabetes they give me.
    Apple Ale - only one of the three I've had before. Liquid magic apple pie sex.
    Pumpkin Pie Lust - PUMPKIN! I'm more of a ***** for pumpkin beers than white girls are for Pumpkin Spice Lattes.
    Serendipity - Can't wait to crack this big guy open soon and enjoy some fruity goodness.

    Thank you so much @jschott75 (I forgot to see your actual name on the box, D'Oh!)

    Let me figure out how I want to put together a LIF and I'll be ready to send you lovely people a box of Texas Magic sometime next week.

    Glad you liked it, I don't think you've had any of those before according to untapped / your had list.

    @Mipper From what I saw on Kevin's untapped it looked like quite the bash!

    And there were a metric ton of pumpkins we didn't get to try! I sent everyone away with 4 bottles, but still have a bunch left over. I am happy to send you some tasty ones for a shipping label!

    Do you have any favorites or wants?

    I wouldn't know where to begin. I'd like to attend another bottle share vs just take freebies. Where in PA are you? I am over in Plymouth Meeting.

    I believe you had some pretty good ones left over, if anyone is in to pumpkin beers you should take Eric up on his offer.

    GIF Update: We have five people signed up so far. If you are still interested please BM your name and address. I am planning to get the first box sent out next week when the growler arrives.
