    So let me tell you, if you are on the fence as to which bottle you want from @FFFjunkie just had the Uplands Peach and it is one of the best sours I have had.

    You guys have made it this far. In keeping with the ninja style so far, I am not 100% how many boxes will be going out until I finish packing them up. I can tell you all that it will be more than 1 but less than 6.

    If you guys could please message me your addresses it will be much appreciated.

    Boxes will be leaving very soon.....

    Cheers all!

    Well, I'll certainly go along with the group on this, but, out here at least, early October is the end of Fresh Hop season. The first hops are harvested in the last 1/3 of August, with the first beers on shelves a couple weeks later. Sure, the beers continue to pop-up for a few weeks, but all the bines are empty by the time of the Fresh Hop fest in Yakima the first Saturday of October.

    Yeah. After you send us all the seconds/left overs:grin:,we are a few weeks behind. I was at the Fat Heads release for Hop Stalker on Oct 14, and I think Columbus Brewing's Yakima was a week or so before that. Not a big deal either way since these things never end by the share date, but I thought most may want to send before than after as in the past. Feel free to vote me off the island.

    Okay I haven't been keeping up here but will try to do better after a small vacation. We're headed out on a little road trip around the east coast over the next 3 weeks. So I'll offer up a small LIF to all the followers here. We're leaving Saturday and will be traveling for give or take 3 weeks. To make this easy for me I'll offer up a box of goodies collected during the trip plus a few cellar dips to the person that guesses the closest to the actual miles we will travel. The only hint I will give for now is the first stop is in southern New Jersey. Entries will close when I get home and since there is no set end date that will be a risk. I may or may not update this along the route with info from the various breweries hit. Just tag me or quote this post to be entered.
    Cheers!

    I'm in for the BIF. My wife and I were doing pretty well on the NBS before the summer started and had a lot of fun reading through everything and this is a great excuse to jump back into it. Should be a lot of fun!

    Since @smanson56 is going to keep us in suspense for a few weeks, I'll offer up a shorter term contest... Next Thursday (8/17), there are 3 preseason NFL games. Guess the total points scored of all 6 teams. Closest gets at a mixed 4 pack of Bearded Iris hops, and whatever other goodies I may stumble across this weekend. Tag me with your guess, contest closes at first kickoff. Cheers, and good luck!
