    Awesome box @Orca_Whale !

    Azi, you were into craft beer at age 14? Kids grow up so fast these days.

    Nice hit as always @Mikexw !

    Nice @brutalfarce ! I'm also a big fan of that second fiddle, great stuff.

    Surprisingly, yeps. First it was simple stuff (as one does), but quickly went to stouts. Sours and funk followed and then hope I’ve only gotten into in the past year or two. But I found beer

    Oops, pressed post too early. I found beer pretty young, Twas the cheaper option over wine...long story short I definitely started drinking too early. Which is why I have decently old bottles of stouts and barleywines...nothing crazy, but definitely from before I was legal

    Is there an easy way to keep track of when new rounds start? I'm interested in the future but November is wayyy too busy for me.

    Please do the same for me. I’m going to be traveling the next couple weeks for work and won’t have time for BIF shenanigans. Really want to do this but the shipping deadline won’t work for me.

    Interested in more BIFs, but not great timing on the November one for me either. Does the newbies one go every couple of months? What's the plan for this one? Will spring be the next round for the rookies?

    I'll probably go again in Mid-February with a March or April ship date. Get through the cold winter for some of us.

    The Newbies is basically whenever @azuelke feels like doing all the work of running one. Usually every couple of months.

    Those three boxes look excellent, good job to all the senders! I'm gonna be out of the BIFs until next spring or so with work and wedding prep, etc. but I'll still be keeping an eye on whats popping up.

    That being said, just a friendly heads up, I'm not expecting any ninjas right now but we're headed to portland Tuesday for a week to meet with wedding vendors and what not so I won't be home if anyone had any ideas. :grin: I hope to be able to pop in and out on occasion but we will probably be pretty busy so I'l probably see y'all on the other side!
