    Box #1 from Week 13 is in - early Christmas present from @jpatag66! Some San Diego goodness to wash away what I'm afraid will be a bitter defeat for the Vikes tomorrow against golden boy Rodgers.

    Toolbox Das Froot
    Modern Times Funky Universal Friend - I love unqiue beers like this
    Societe The Butcher
    Ironfire 6 Killer Stout - Love my coffee stouts

    Box #2 from Week 13 arrived as well - this one from Santa Claus himself (@PJ_ )! Not only does he manage to send 7 bottles, but the packaging was immaculate. I almost didn't want to open it. Almost...

    Cherry on top - he manages to find beer named after my alma mater. While the Bison won't be winning their 6th straight FCS title this year - at least they beat Iowa.

    Jackie O's Oro Negro
    Jackie O's Immixence - sounds great!
    Homestead BBA Bison
    Homestead Bison - Bizzzon!!
    Columbus Sohio Stout
    Westbrook Key Lime Pie Gose

    Thank you @PJ_ for the generous box!

    Could've sworn Santa was still over Russia/Eastern Asia, but then my doorbell rang and he had a sack full of hops and other goodies courtesy of @wolfpac255

    Thanks for a great box! Cheers and Merry Christmas all!

    Hey @Summer78 - I don't remember how the weekly box breakdown ended up this year. Are we going to do the confidence picks ATS for the playoffs? Or did the weekly boxes end up even?

    There's only one extra box this year, which will be going to one of the players who tied a week.

    If there's enough interest, I will run a playoff version. Maybe people put up a nice bomber or something. I'll run it if someone makes the ante.

    I like the nice bomber idea as the ante, perhaps paired with some nice locals? Example from my neck of the woods would be a Hunaphu with a four pack of White Oak Jsi Alai?

    I'm up for it! Hopefully we'll get a good portion of the BIF folks up for it. I liked the change of pace to "against the spread" last year too.
    I'll ante a winner's choice of:
    CCB Hunahpu
    Cycle RareR DOS
    Coppertail Sabotage

    with some local hoppy stuff.

    Ok. Just reply to this thread if you want in. I'll leave it open until Friday sometime and post full rules at that point. As per the last several playoff iterations, these picks will be AGAINST the spread, not outright winners.

    Playoff side BIF:

    I will post the spreads for the weekend's games Thursday or Friday. Each participant should BM me their picks along with their confidence (4 being the highest, 1 being the lowest). There will be a multiplier as the playoffs proceed:

    Wildcard - 1 mult (meaning there are 10 points possible to earn this week)
    Divisional - 2 mult (20 points available)
    Championship - 5 mult (15 points available)
    SB - 10 point game

    Tiebreak rules:

    1. Correct SB pick
    2. Most correct Championship weekend picks
    3. Most correct Divisional weekend picks
    4. Most correct Wildcard weekend picks.
    5. Split the boxes if all picks were the same.

    Ante will be one nice bomber (doesn't have to be a whale. A good one-off, seasonal, or brewery-only bomber will suffice), and a couple (2+) locals. No need to post if you are in or not, just BM me your picks by noon of the day of the first game of the weekend. There will be no changing of picks once they are submitted. Once the field is set, I will post the link for the sheet so everyone can see the picks.
