It's time... A HUGE thanks to @jonbonfondle for running the last several rounds. I volunteered to run this round to let him take a break and be able to guess his sender again. I have big shoes to fill. Newbies BIF Round 7 Minimum requirements - 144 oz. of beer rated 85 or higher (or 4.1+ rAvg if there are too few scores for a rating) unless a it's a want (in which case, just send it). Basically send a box you'd be happy to receive yourself. Shipping window - Last week of May, box should arrive no later than Saturday, June 3. Although a Memorial Day VBS would be ideal. Special rules - 1) Wrap a minimum of one bottle so that your target can do a blind tasting. Target should post a VBS/VCS of wrapped beer while trying to guess said beer. Blind tastings would be done within 30 days of delivery. There are lots of ways to conceal bottles/caps/cans but extra advice can always be shared and provided. 2) Include at least one piece of local brewery swag (local = in your state). This should be a glass, shirt, etc. Send me a BM with details before April 12th: Name/address (specify work or home)/untappd/likes/dislikes/shirt size/swag preference (glass, shirt, other)/shipping date restrictions. For any newbie newbies looking to join (yes, we ALWAYS want fresh blood), a couple of notes. The general requirement is that you have at least 5 positive trade transactions under your belt. If not, let me (or the group) know and we'll find someone to sponsor you. There's always someone willing to step up, so don't let this hold you back from joining. There's also an expectation that pictures of your impressive BIF haul are posted to this thread so we can all drool over the beer your received.
Finances, currently on a drinking break, Just got out of a four year relationship and am in a slump, yadda yadda yadda. Odds are I join, just not feeling it at the moment.
Yeah, glad u signed up for another round! Welcome back! Glad you're back...who gets the Raccoon It Forward?!
We know @droopy1202 will be back, he drinks everything in his fridge in the span of 2 nights, he always needs new beer . Paging @locoformavs, are you in for another round of shenanigans?
I'm definitely in! I'll send a message soon. Thanks for the reminder @azuelke ! My friend @Cal213 is interested in joining this round. I'll be sponsoring him of course. He doesn't have any trades on here, but has many on reddit and through other regular trading partners. Cheers!
