    A blatant plea to get some more NW forum members to sign up for the NBS BIF. It's fun, easy (ya just gotta post on NBS, and on the hints & hauls thread), and yer gonna get beer! @kemoarps , @woemad , and I are long time participants, wouldn't seeing some more NW folks on board. Especially you Oregonians!

    Michigan, the Mid-Atlantic, and New England always show up strong, let's show them how the Northbest does it!

    I do, i really do. I miss the excitement of a box from a friend made through this site where we'd just say - $80 sound good? - and go shopping and surprise each other. But giving up trading and all those FedEx expenses has been a godsend to my beer budget. And I stand by my post the other day where i admitted to not having truly explored a lot of the smaller Portland breweries. I need to fix that. Heck, I feel like I'm barely able to keep up with Ex Novo, and Von Ebert? forget about it!

    Do it!!

    I'm definitely interested. Not sure I'll be able to make it work for sure, but I'll confirm one way or the other by 8th

    i've been craving a BIF lately, but I think i'd have maybe some issues hitting the shipping window due to some travel issues.... but i think i'll hop in next round...

    As long as you keep your target and the folks running it informed, we can probably work with that. It's always OK to ship early too.

    Nope. Hawaii has been in, but not the 49th.

    i’m in indiana til 4/1, so it kinda defeats the purpose of getting some ak beers into the mix. there’s a chance i could make it work, but it’s a very slim chance with our local covid restrictions and shipping times.
    next time!
