    I'll do a post on this weeks NBS, and we'll figure out the parameters. Perhaps a "drink on" date of 6/28? That's the week after Fathers Day, and the Sunday preceding Fourth of July.

    I'm in; but if it's anything like last time, it will be a multiple Sunday event :stuck_out_tongue:

    In time for 6/28 works for me.

    Same basic parameters as last time? Focus on locals, new beers, 66-72oz limit, try to get new folks involved?

    Sure, after all, the point of NBS is trying new beers. I suspect a lot of beers on peoples wants lists would be new to them, so hit those wants!

    Unfortunately I'll have to take a pass on this BIF unless someone wants to ship to Hawaii which is doubtful. Looking forward to seeing how this BIF goes though! Hopefully some new people will join in and it is as great as last round.

    Well, would you be willing to ship from Hawaii? Are you there now, or heading over soon? You might could put a box together before you head over, and have a friend ship it for you at the right time.

    Heading over in a few weeks but don't think I could convince a friend to do that and plus I'd like to do it myself anyway. I'm willing to ship from Hawaii but if we do the random pairing like last time I'd feel bad if someone got stuck shipping to Hawaii that was way back east

    I'd be willing to make sure your target was west coast.
