    Ya gotta participate in the weekly NBS thread, and be willing to review the beers ya get.

    Our general parameters are: 66-72 oz minimum of beer, no maximum.
    At least one of the beers must a "mystery" beer (cover the label in some way), that the target must review blind.
    1 piece swag (t-shirt, glassware, etc).
    A local food item.
    Participate in the H&H thread.
    Post reviews on NBS on the "official" share date.

    The next one will be in the spring, likely early April, with sign-up starting mid-February. Probably, I haven't looked at the calendar yet, but we try to stay off of Easter Sunday.

    This is my first one, and you should be scared. Every time I see a USPS/UPS/FedEx drive by, an extreme feeling of panic washes over me. I start shaking, and curl up into a fetal position.

    I've been beat.

    Seriously, it's a lot of fun, and you get to try new beers from all over the place. Highly recommended. Hopefully I'll have gotten through all the beers from this one by the next one.

    It is with heavy heart that I must officially declare that I have entered the war. These repeated provocations will not stand, and our enemies must be vanquished! A surface to surface barrage is loaded and will be unleashed posthaste. Certain details of the operation, such as targets and locations, must be kept classified for the safety of our troops.

    This festbier is outstanding! Deep and rich toasty bread, with a malt character that's nicely rounded yet really pops, and a generous amount of spicy hops that lets you know they're there but still play beautiful harmony. Definitely mid-4's from me, and one of the best I've had this year- wow!

    I thought it was really comparable to the Sierra Nevada this year. Just had one and still love it. Sharing this one from @spersichilli now with one of my brothers

    Smells more sour than it tastes. The raspberry dominates but the orange is noticeable. Especially with the sourness. Pineapple in the aftertaste. Very mixed cocktail like in that regard, and definitely spiked punch liek overall. Enjoyable enough.
