Hey Newbies (and lurkers), its been far too long since we've had a BIF round, so what do you say to a Blind Summer Sixer!!! The requirements: Six wrapped vessels of beer to be enjoyed each day spanning from July 2 (Tuesday) - July 7 (Sunday), 4+ BA / untappd rating unless it is a want of your target. Beer must be from outside your target's distribution. Extras are not required, but if you feel the need to send on some more beer than required, please limit to 6 max (wrapped or not). As with past blind BIFs, each shipper will provide their target with six individually wrapped beers (bottle, can, growler, etc). Each of these packages will be tagged with the order and/or date on which they should be opened, and each day the target will open the designated package for that day, take a photo and post it on BA, and I guess drink some beer. Minimum ~100 oz. of beer. I trust your judgement, but since the number of beers is limited, we should probably try to avoid a box of exclusively small format beers. Feel free to double up small format beers for a single day, verticals are always fun! This is open to any past participants or lurkers. Newbie Newbies looking to join with fewer than 5 positive trades will require a sponsor - if that's you, just speak up and we'll figure something out! The timeline: Boxes need to be in your target's hands no later than June 29th. If you think you might have a problem getting your box to its final destination on time, ship early, nobody likes to sit on the sidelines and watch everyone else have a good time. Send me a PM with the following information (title the message Newbies 2019 Summer 6er so I can easily reference it.) Name, shipping address, and cellphone number Shirt size (just in case...swag is not required, but is certainly not prohibited) Any 'Do Not Ship' dates (i.e. you’ll be out of town) Untappd username Style likes/dislikes As usual, hoping to not pair people up with each other that have sent and/or received from each other in previous rounds, or people with bordering states, so the more people the better.
