    Yup, I got in one little fight and my mom got scared, she said "You ain't got no auntie and uncle in Belair." So I just stayed in New Mexico.

    It might come in a two pack of cans. Not that that narrows it down or anything...

    Like I mentioned in an earlier post, I was planning on shipping this box on the earlier side of the timeframe. Looking at the past couple NBS BIF threads with everyone shipping about the same time has led me to wonder, is this discouraged in this BIF? There's a good balance of hoppy fresh stuff to get into right away and heavier/BA/sour stuff to pick from for the review date.

    Are you saying you're 24 years old? Goddamn. Makes me a senior citizen almost by comparison.

    I think the only thing that is discouraged is sending beer that you wouldn't want to get yourself via trade/BIF. Given that you'll include some stuff that needn't be drank immediately, I think you'll be fine. But @beertunes might want to chime in here.

    Yeah that's fine. The big point is that we want to have a big "share" day on NBS on 4/10. As long as your target gets the beer by Wednesday or Thursday of that week it's good, so early is no problem. I'll use myself as an example: last time I saw that my pay weeks were gonna clash with the "share" date, so I shipped a small box that got there about 10 days ahead of time. My target had beers for NBS the week before the "share", the week of, and I sent the second box, and he had beers for a couple more episodes of NBS.
