    Looks like his box wrecked more than just your porch! Posting from Barbies fun house until the domicile is reconstructed? That's hardcore BIFing.

    No problem. Barbie has a waterslide and a pool.

    There is a show on Netflix. Barbie Life in The Dream house. It is a cartoon that is done as if it is a reality show with Barbie as the store. There are some really funny lines in the show.
    I know this because my daughters watch the show over and over

    I feel like I started seeing it around the city in the last year or so? Or at least that's when I remember noticing it, though that is no guarantee that that's when it first started showing up.

    My sentiments exactly, I was in a bit of a rush getting out the door for work to get too detailed but these look great. Excited to try them! @r0rschach has definitely wrecked some havoc in this round. I've always heard the saying "Don't fuck with Texas" but I'll be damned if this generosity isn't reciprocated.
    I have to get up in about 4 hours to be a functioning adult in my youngest son's kindergarten class, it's his birthday too so I'll be there at least through lunch. Thought I would enjoy one of the lighter offerings.

    There is no way you would convince me in a blind test that this wasn't a big DIPA. Probably the most flavorful, full bodied APA that I've ever had. Had it after a quality control check of a new volume of a local DIPA that thankfully doesn't taste like meat.
    Huge citrus and peachy notes, great body, overall a hell of a beer! Thanks John!

    Cheers! Tupps is the only other north Texas spot that is putting out haze that's worth a damn, although Celestial Beerworks is opening on the 31st and will deifinitely change that. I'm a big fan of their brewer, really nice guy and makes excellent NEIPAs.

    Exactly this. I have received some crazy rare and awesome beers through this BIF, but I've gotten even more random little locals of which I've never heard - and they're all about the same value to me. What's far more important is the banter on this thread, the fun of guessing your sender, and seeing your target try out new beers and letting you know what he thinks - good, bad, or indifferent.

    It's not supposed to be a group trade. It's a group sitting down together at the virtual bar: sharing, discussing, and occasionally shit-talking. :grinning:

    I agree with you 100%, letting someone know what you think of the beer they sent is pretty important to me. I even was afraid I would forget who sent me what with all these ninja boxes flying and being in 3 BIFs at once so I marked the cans and bottles as they came in so I would know who sent me what. The back and forth also really makes this and really any other BIF fun otherwise it is just trading with someone you don't know. I really enjoy seeing what people do and hearing their thoughts about other stuff outside of beer and these are great for that as well.

    I just want to make it clear that @thebeers is obviously trying to Price Is Right me! (I almost went with 26 runs, actually lol)

    So, there's a mainpage thread right now, where a guy is complaining about some beers he bought from an online reseller. One of the semi-regulars this BIF, @Harrison8 , was wondering how to set up a trade. Any New England/Northeast folks interested in maybe helping a brother out?

    I hope he's able to get the good, real stuff in good condition.
