    Here we go for Round 2...

    Signups open till September 19th.
    Boxes (plural) due by OCT 31st..

    Thats 4 weeks for early bird shopping and a 6+ week shop and ship window from when you receive your tagets (again, plural).

    The Sloppy Seconds group welcomes new people. We ask that you have a few trades under your belt, but if not feel free to reach out. We are friendly. Just realize that this is not the ideal beginners BIF. But if you have what it takes, than we will make it work.

    This BIF is about giving more than receiving. If you cant stomach to send out some of your nicest beers in good faith that someone will return the favor (KARMA), then you probably dont belong here.

    Here is what you are on the hook for....

    2 boxes containing each of the following:

    100 oz of great beer. Awesome shelfies are welcome but NO SHELF TURDS. Hops should be no older than 8 Weeks. NO FRIDGE DUMPING. If you'd rate it under a 4 on UT, id strongly reconsider sending it.

    1 piece of nice brewery swag (shirt, hat, etc) or 1 nice brewery glass (preferrably stemmed). No generic Pint glasses unless your target prefers them (which is rare).

    1 local food item. Awesome not widely available Sauces,marinades,jerkies, candies, etc. you get the idea.

    And new for round 2....1 mystery beer for each of your targets to review blind publicly. Call it a WILDCARD. This beer is open to interpretation, and must be reviewed on the thread before any of the other included beers can be opened. Use your imagination and have fun. The wildcard can be anything. For example, it can be a "whale", a macro beer, a terribly executed beer (Rogue Voodoo Donut or any other gone awfully wrong). Have some fun with it, after all thats what we are here for.

    So,
    in total you will owe 200 oz of great beer, 2 pieces of brewery swag, 2 local food items and 2 mystery(wildcard) blind beers split between 2 boxes. You will also owe a blind review of your mystery beers and a credit/haul pic for each sender (in a timely manner).

    Participation will not be forced. However, if you fly silent the entire time and cannot bother to leave hints or bust balls with everyone in the thread we reserve the right to keep you out of future rounds.

    We value camaradie and generosity above all else.

    If you think you can hang with us, then send me a message titled Savages V2 and include the following info:

    Name
    Address
    Email
    Phone number
    Shirt Size
    Food Allergies
    Preferred spirits if any
    Shipping Blackout dates if any
    Style preferences or whatever you see fit to help your sender tailor your box. Do not be shy...

    Content hint...traveling to Richmond, Vermont, Colorado, Switzerland, and Germany. Items from these locales will be in your box. Maybe it will be beer, maybe it will be wurst...who knows?
