    Why the Unblended only restriction? Most Lambics are blended.

    Huh? There is no such beer style on BA called Lambic - Blended.

    This is what I was referring to...I didn't mean to write most Lambics...just the OG of Lambics

    You specifically want 3 750ml bottles, right? Or do the bottle sizes not matter as long as they add up to more than 75oz?

    75oz minimum...the 3 - 750ml bottles was merely an example. Typically in a BIF there is a minimum set as a guideline but guys usually go over (or way over) the minimum by sending extra bottles along. Once the BIF has started, another thread will be created for guys to put out hints to their targets and for guys to post pictures of their hauls that they have received.

    I am interested, but agree that Berliner's and Gose should be options.

    It should be interesting to say the least...we have a nice mixed bag of new BAs and serious traders.
