    I'm sure this is mentioned here somewhere, I'm just too lazy to look. What does CIF and GIF stand for?

    There are 2 traveling boxes that people sign things and keep passing it around. One is a growler and one is couch cushions used as packing material. Growler it forward and Cushion it forward.

    Oregon/New York LIF:

    Most of the guys and gals on slack know that I am traveling to Oregon and New York for three weeks and trying a bunch of new beers. The Oregon half of the trip just wrapped up and I grabbed a few beers at De Garde to include in an LIF. I'll also mix in some NY beers (Single Cut, Barrier, Grimm if I can find any...). This box will not ship until I return to CA the week of January 10. Here is how to enter:

    Guess how many new beers I will try!
    Tiebreaker:     Which new tick will I like the best?
    * I like this LIF because I think the tiebreaker will result in good advice about what beer to drink :slight_smile:

    Cheers Newbies!

    @ECOBOOSTINST Can you shoot me another message? For some reason it says the conversation you started isn't open for replies.

    Thanks!
