    I have had the opportunity to meet with, trade with, or talk with many good people here on BA. I want to give something back. After today's box arrived my girlfriend told me I officially have too many bottles of beer, so tell me, just how many are too many?

    LIF:

    I will get rid of a few bottles from my local brewery, Cigar City, to the person who can tell me how many bottles are too many bottles. I don't know the answer! This weekend I will be rearranging my cellar, and during this I will count all the bottles to find out.

    RULES:

    Lower 48 states only please.

    Only one guess per person.

    Price Is Right style - be the closest without going over.

    If more than one of you guesses correctly, earliest correct guess wins.

    DETAILS:

    I will take guesses until June 28th.

    I will ship July 1st.

    My Gots list and cellar link are NOT up to date, so I wouldn't use those as any indication of the answer.

    One and only hint - the number is somewhere between 50 and 1500!

    Good Luck!:wink:

    Trick question. There's no such thing.

    But then again, I don't know your girlfriend so I'll say 183.

    Awesome idea for an LIF! I haven't reached the point where my wife has said that yet, but I fear it every time I go to the bottle shop. I'm gonna guess 285 bottles. Cheers- and thanks for the shot!
