    I deserve the boo-urns. But I hope to accumulate some beers for the next BIF

    This is how I'm feeling, though if they are desperate I can do a box, just don't expect more than what is on the shelf here!

    Not much of a forum user, but I heard about this CANBIF from an acquaintance and am looking forward to the exchange! I don't have quite the cellar that most on here seem to have, but I'll try my best!

    Understood! Read the last go around. Will wait to hear from others. Hope I knock the socks off someone.

    Enjoy!

    For many people its just about getting to try new beer that isn't easily available if we got of our asses and bought it ourselves close by; and some of us also just love sending out fun boxes regardless of what we get...

    Unfortunately I came back from vacation to an enormous crack in my windshield, which needs to be replaced. Goodbye CanBIF money. I'll have to sit this one out.

    Barring any last minute additions, the breakdown is as follows:

    BC - 8
    AB - 3
    SK - 1
    MB - 2
    ON - 11
    QC - 4
    NB - 1
    NS - 2

    Total of 32 (one shy of last rounds record). Breakdown is not too bad as well with 14 west of ON and 18 east of MB.

    A casual jaunt through the liquor store today reveals anyone getting a box from BC is gonna be stoked!

    I'm new to the site so sitting this one out, but will definitely be taking notes (and building up the cellar) for the next BIF

    For anyone who is still thinking of joining this round, please let Phil and I know as soon as you can tonight so that we can finalize the pairings and get the same out to everyone.

    I did a little scouting yesterday and picked up a couple of seasonals, as well as scoping out what's available in general. Should be able to put together a decent box of local stuff!

    Ok, we are done - had 1 more entry (thanks @MasterSki) so we are now at 33 which ties last round for the most participants ever. Lots of new participants as well so this should be a great round. Just finalizing the pairings and then you will be receiving your recipients from Phil or I.
