    Count me in! I transferred Barleywine #2 from the barrel to the keg this morning. Barleywine #3 went into the barrel. #3 weighs in at hefty 12%. Somebody will be getting a bottle of this one pictured in the near future. :wink:

    Pre porch busting reveal: my partner will receive a local bottle of bourbon that may or may not have also produced a barrel that a beer I send was aged in. Double trouble if you will. I'm so excited about this.

    @Whyteboar sorry I don’t fit the profile. I can’t play. I guess the BIF’s I’ve been in the past do not qualify me for this one.

    If only we knew who to ask for an exception to whatever excludes you…
    Oh @Beersnake1 - if he posts in an upcoming NBW or one of the appreciation threads that’s mentioned, can he play? Oh please?

    If you can find the time it would be great to have you! I know the school year is on so you’re likely busy, but everyone needs a place to relax and spend with, well, other beer geeks, right?

    Vouch for @Jasonja1474 he's done NFL33 bif several times, a few of those I was a part of with him. I actually think he sent me a box for my win in 2021.

    Also big vouch for @Jasonja1474 , he's been my proxy for a brewery membership out his way for the last couple years, and we've sent beer back and forth multiple times. And I'm pretty sure I know him from participating in a BIF with him a few years back. Just sent him a box of stouts and barleywines to practice for this BIF.

    Whoa whoa, what? I’ve been asleep at the wheel. Now I have to go look at things…

    P.S. I’ve been drinking this 903 Brewers Barrel King Strong Ale with rum soaked coffee beans and vanilla sugar. Like a barleywine but not and like a barleywine-ish version of BA Fragile Like a Bomb.

    Do I want in? Absolutely I do!

    What am I in? What do I have to do?

    I’ve never done a BIF, but my trade record is good and I drink stouts and barleywines all the time. LOL!

    I’m interested, but after reading the qualifications criteria I don’t think I can participate!
