    This LIF comes to you courtesy of BA's alpineclimber, kingkong, LambicKing, match1112 and myself. When I read that alpineclimber got royally screwed in a trade I offered to ship him a consolation box and asked if any other BA's wanted to chip in. Kingkong, LambicKing and match1112 stepped up to the plate and between the four of us we ended up with 18 bottles to send. Alpineclimber requested that I send him some of those beers but hang onto others for a future LIF. In a cruel twist, the box I sent to him was confiscated by Canadian customs, so the beers in this LIF "cheated death" thanks to alpineclimber.

    The Rules:
    1. Contiguous United States ONLY (I learned my lesson!!)
    2. One guess per hint
    3. Start a LIF of your own within a few months

    The Beers (one of each):
    Founders Nemesis 2010
    Founders Breakfast Stout 2011
    Blue Mountain Barrel House Local Species 2012
    Southern Tier Creme Brulee 2012
    Foothills Bourbon Barrel People's Porter (year?)
    Stone IRS 2011
    GI Bourbon County Brand Stout 2012

    The Question:
    While in Ohio this past weekend, I bought three craft beers to share with a friend. His girlfriend is not a craft beer drinker but was a good sport and tried each of the three. Two of the beers she described as tasting like "ear wax" and the other she described as tasting like "butt". He and I agreed all three were fantastic beers even though we had no experience identifying those specific tastes. Name the three beers.

    Thank you to kingkong, LambicKing and match1112 for your contributions, and to alpineclimber for coming up with the idea to keep the generosity going by way of a LIF.

    Hint #1: Two of three have been correctly guessed and one of those two has been guessed the most so far. Second guesses welcome.
