    That was five BIFers ago????? Incredible how fast time flies. IIRC, I sent you other Rev stuff. They’re too legit 2 quit - in the running with Transient as my favorite breweries. If I lived as close to them as I do Transient, I’d need to add a second garage onto the house to hold all their beer I’d possess.

    Subtle MI references I missed. There is only one BIFer that has had as much Hoppin Frog as me, but he still found new ones I have never seen. I haven't shopped Ohio in a while, but once I go home to Ohio for holidays, I will check out some stores.

    I showed up after a long day at work to the porch and the bottom of the box was one thread on the from being open to the elements. Good thing for the all cans and also the trash bag containment. I had to open it upside down.

    @Ozzylizard crushed me last BIF. I still have a TON of beers still to make my way through. You are a lucky man.

    Either of you interested in hitting up the Charlton Tree House tomorrow? I'm thinking of stocking my fridge(s).

    @woemad close your eyes. Nothing to see here. :stuck_out_tongue:

    I like Philly the city, and if I'm otherwise unattached to a team, I'll default to Philly. teams. But, I cannot abide Brycecakes. Fuck that guy.

    OK, it's my turn for an LIF! I won one late in BIF 15 but then started traveling. Figured I would wait until this one began before launching. I'll leave this open to anyone from BIF 15 or 16.

    I'm going with a format that I have used in the past (I think back in BIF 14). Guess the beer!! One question per person per day and my answer will only be a YES or NO. You can ask anything that you want. You can only make an official guess ONCE, so don't guess unless you are pretty confident.

    ****Here are my only hints: This is NOT a one-off and I HAVE had this beer before.****

    GO!!!

    My final beer from NBS #11...again from @ovaltine. Mike, it took me almost three freaking years to make it through the ridiculous amount of beer you sent me!

    Pours a dirty, brownish red with minimal head. Aroma is all funky tart cherry. Taste is tart and acidic, but over the top. Nice earthy funk. Faint cherry. Light bodied and fairly easy drinking. Really enjoying this one.

    -----------------
    @BBThunderbolt I see what you mean. Looks like a real a-hole.

    Right, hiding behinds kids. Using children as a shield is a real douche-nozzle move. JV just struck his ass out!

    I've been hit by @BigIronH! A great box from the Upper Midwest, including:

    Oddside's Apple Pie Brown Ale
    Oddside's Double Dank Juice Imperial IPAl
    Oddside's Reinoso BBA Imperial Stout
    Brewery Vivant (a new brewery for me) Fall Saison with Cinnamon and Pear
    Arvon Brewing Co. (another new brewery for me) Oatmeal Stout.
    Central Waters Breweing's His Dudeness Imperial White Stout.
    Founders Maple Mackinac Fudge KBS
    B. Nectar Meadery's Black Fang Mead with blackberries, clove, and orange zest. This is the first mead I've ever received in a BiF.
    And a package of Turtle Rice Krispies with pecans, caramel, and chocolate. Mrs. Mac has already grabbed it.

    Thank you, Harley, this is great! I look forward to digging in and will review one of these on Sunday. Cheers!

    I think I still have a bottle of that tucked away. I'll have to dig it out, because I love cherries in a sour.

    Normally I would be all over this, but heading to Fox Farm to pick up some beer a still unsuspecting target.
