    I’ll go with 4. Thanks!

    And speaking of LIFs, one of y’all needs to check your porch.

    I am predicting that Cole shuts down NYY, with Houston winning 3-1. However, I am going to hedge my bets, and give myself a buffer (both for the possibility of two low-scoring games, or one higher scoring game), and go with seven total runs for my official guess.

    Edit: @beertunes juuuuust beat me to the buzzer with seven. Make it six from me! :slight_smile:

    If this isn’t my favorite barleywine, it’s in the Top 3. Revolution rocks, IMHO.

    Lucky bastage.

    My uncle has the same name as my target. It's a classic name but probably not used much anymore for good reasons.

    As of this moment, the score is 4-2. One more run, and you lose the LIF.

    Hint #1: I am (as is typical) shipping south and east.
    #2: I am shipping to one of the 48 contiguous states.
    #3: It is a possibility that I have shipped to my targets state in a previous BIF.
    #4: My targets state touches a body of water.
    #5: My targets city/town/village/wide-spot-in-the-road is at a higher elevation than parts of my city (sea level).

    The Astros have 3 more outs to score a run for me. Then, the hated Yanquis can go quietly into that good night.

    I now find myself in the extremely awkward position of hoping the Yankerz score exactly one run, so that the Astros win the game, and I win the beer........

    So it looks like @beertunes Won my LIF with 7. The final score was 10.

    As a condition of winning Sammy's LIF, I must start another. Will post it as soon as think of it.

    Since I won @SammyJaxxxx 's LIF, I have to start another one. Here we go:

    At my work, we are canning our winter seasonal on Tuesday. Since it's a seasonal, we won't empty the fermenter, but just run until the cans end. We should easily get more than 600 cases, and should get less than 800, based on the number of cans, probably in the 650-700 case range (but, could go under or over). Guess the exact number of finished, saleable cases (low-fills, scratch & dents, QC pulls, etc do not count) we end up with. Closest answer, over or under, wins. In case of a tie, first response wins. GO!!!!!

    Nope- nothing that bad.- My target and I would probably get along really well in terms of enjoyable styles,
