Both.... expect new ticks and wants. And most people tell me you're out of beer so this has grown to 2 boxes at least. I have too much according to my wife. Absolutely! I'm sure I met more than 5 but was buzzed and forgetful of names. I remember meeting @whyteboy003 , Steve, you and then it gets fuzzy.
#GIF out for delivery today! No challenge bottle or anything crazy, but once the package arrives in the Frozen Tundra that is your home, please dump the included Fort Lauderdale Beach Sand on the ground, pop a Pineapple Beach, and take a picture frolicking on your makeshift beach! Cheers!
Delayed post from a couple of ninja boxes I got hit with last week. First up, @beatjunkee hits me with some awesome hops and a big VA want (Cafe Royale): The hops are long gone and were delicious. I'm still thinking about that Johann beer...my first Aslin and I'll definitely have to seek out more in the future. Then @MTKATL hits me the next day with a couple more big wants and some other local goodies: Can't wait to finally try Sexual Chocolate and the BA WnB should be great as well. Thanks dudes, you can expect return fire sooner rather than later...
Last call for sign ups. I am closing this down tomorrow. Please people sign up, I can't ship a Florida box to another Floridian. LOL I mean shipping will be cheap, But we get the same beers!
With my final plea for help in the #CIF, two people signed up. I will flip a coin and ninja the box out tomorrow or next Monday.
I got GIF'ed! Awesome box of FL brews here, far left and far right beers are new ticks, everything else I'm excited to revisit a second time (especially Huna!). The growler was really filled with sand. A lot of sand. I'm taking Charlie's lead and will be ninja'ing the #GIF in the VERY near future... Thanks @CBrodbeck!
Word on the street is the first place Best Box prize was sent out today, keep an eye on your porches this week if you participated in the most recent round.
Got hit by two surprise boxes last few days. First ninja was from @jonbonfondle with an awesome selection of MN brews: BA Darkness, damn dude! My only taste of it so far was a baby pour into a filthy glass at a fest. Bent Paddle, Modist and Fair State are all new breweries for me, which came up during our meet up while back - going through these beers and really liking all of them. Thanks Jon! Second ninja was from @HeartofMiami with an awesome selection of FL beers: New Huna! New MBCP! Rum BA Last Snow! Loved the regular Last Snow, quite excited for this one. Way, way generous Jared! Swamp Ape is the legendary FL initiation beer; so glad to have finally tried it and to join that club. Thank you!
I got hit with yet another ninja box on Friday, this time from @Elkevjoe. Insanely generous box here, I've wanted to try Nut Smasher for a while now, PLUS he throw in the BA version. PBC Porter and BA BDA, along with new JO's and WR ticks. Thanks so much Kevin!
Well this little monkey friend of mine has spent enough time here in NE Ohio. Time for him to move on to some possible warmer weather. #PIF moving forward! Invite list: Obviously anyone in the Newbie BIF is encouraged to participate. I'll open this up to lurkers as well. The only requirement is at least 5 trades and 100% feedback. In the spirit of the Newbie BIF anyone with less than 5 trades or with less than 100% feedback is welcome to join with a veteran sponsor. Veteran lurkers are also welcome @Beer4B . I will ask that you only sign up if you are committed to keeping the #PIF going. The beer: In an effort to keep the #PIF moving along I'm going to limit the beer to a 6 bottle shipper with a range of 88 oz. to 140 oz. of 90+ Rated beer, or 4.0 on Untappd. Beer must be from outside your target's distribution. How it works: Send me a PM with "#PIF I'm in" and I'll randomly chose a winner. Once you've received the #PIF take Pleepleus out to a local brewery and check-in beer under his Untappd username: Pleepleus17. Small swag like mini pins are also encouraged. It's important to show Pleepleus a good time and not let him get bored. Keep the #PIF moving! I will close sign-ups down 4/1/2017 and ship the #PIF on 4/3/2017.
