Was just talking with mulder1010 and Pat has asked me if i'd like to run another Australian BIF, "Aussie BIF II", to be done before Xmas.Those who weren't in the Aussie BIF or those not familiar with a BIF, it stands for Beer It Forward.Person A sends a box to person B, Person B sends to Person X. X sends to A and so forth. You send a box to someone and receive a box from someone else. You don't know who is sending to you.Here is the thread from the previous BIF which was a lot of fun: http://beeradvocate.com/community/threads/australian-bif.10911/We'll run with the same format as last time...Minimum of 2.25 litres of beer to send with 1 bottle being large format.Box must include: 3 beers from local brewery 2 from local bottle shop 1 of senders choice 1 piece of swag (i.e. shirt or glassware, with a preference being from a local brewery). Or if you wish to send a growler, can send 1 x 2L growler or 2 x 1L growlers. The idea is to be generous and to obviously send stuff that a person can't get locally.If you are interested, shoot me a Conversation with the following: Full Name Mobile Email Shipping Address Shirt Size Please also update your Wants list with Australian beers and others. This will make it easier for the person sending to you to send you a cool box. I'll keep signups open until November 21. Then i'll assign targets to ship and have a shipping deadline of December 7, so that everyone has a nice box of beers to open before Xmas and maybe drink over the Festive Season.
Just an update, so far we have confirmed: mulder1010 spicelab bluebetty danieelol dansmcd sinkas MordeciaFunk joecast MrKennedy Should get a few more in hopefully before signups close
Going to close off signups as we have 11 and have heard back from pretty well all the active people on BA & RB with a yes or no. Please update your wants list. In we have: mulder1010 bluebetty danieelol spicelab MrKennedy joecast MordeciaFunk Lukie dansmcd CarlisleWineBin dgilks
Targets have been assigned via email to everyone except joecast & Lukie, who received theirs via BA Conversation. Let me know if you haven't received anything and i'll re-send.
Sent mine out today 11 beers, 10 from Australia, 1 from US. Could not fit the swag in in the end, will fix that up later. Am hoping that the beers get to my target safely :S
