    OKAY, so I know that there are some late boxes landing. And I have made the proper BM's to check on any stragglers. Cheers people! We almost made the "land by date" :wink: This was a fun one. I may organize this again, but I will not participate... I HAVE TOO MUCH BEER! :grinning: for now...

    First off, you can never have too much beer.
    2nd, if it were possible to have too much beer, BfloBrewHound and I would be the ones who have too much beer.
    It doesn't matter, you know you'll change you mind and join in.

    Benzo--by the way, great job on this. For being a "logistical nightmare" everything went very well, even with a couple of curveballs mid BIF.
    Thanks

    Agreed. The element of two targets and two senders was pretty freaking awesome. It was fun to play with the hints as well.

    BIF rating 5/5, would do again.

    Have to agree with the above two post. Awesome BIF. This was my first foray into beer trading of any kind and I had a blast.

    Thanks! Cheers! I will let some of the other BIFs finish up before getting it going again. My beer fridge will slow down again soon... then I have to work on the cellar!

    Pipeworks Coffe Abduction- I have heard so many great things about pipeworks and the Abduction line and can't believe I can finally try it.
    2010 Abyss- I LOVE Abyss and 2010 is my personal FAV. of it and FAv beer of ALLTIME. It Blows everything else out of the water. So for me to have another bottle of it brings tear to my eyes. Manly tears, like watching Arnold sink in the melting pot.
    2011 Parabola- I have only have 2012 Parabola and Loved it but for some strange reason, I could never get any more. I had 3-4 trades for it fall though, that I just gave up. So I am Super Pumped to finally get another bottle of it and a 2011 to boot. Icying on the cake.


    KevinMc79, you have Humbled me. This box is so freaking Awesome. I am Beer Paradise right now. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

    Happy to send it. Wanted to hit a few more wants and may send some as I find them in my split cellar. Moving sucks cause I can't find shit. But enjoy the beer.
