    Hey, to everyone who is already in, and to those that join from here on out; if you could either update your profile or just post here what styles/beers you like and dislike.

    I'd hate for whoever wins to get a box full of beers/styles they don't enjoy. :grinning:

    I'm a huge hop head. Just started messing with Sours. Not too big on wheat

    I like every style. Only thing I have found I do not like that much are the overly hopped and bitter IPA's.

    For example tasted an IPA that was 46 IBU and was barely ok with it, then tasted a a 56 IBU and did not enjoy it that well.

    But I am willing to give anything a go and learn from my experience. I will drink it (I finished the Stella Artois that tasted absolutely disgusting to me because I refuse to pour out a beer).

    My guess is 750 miles.

    I am definitely a newbie, also had no idea what LIF meant!

    Thanks for doing this! My guess is 515 miles. I am obsessed with hoppy beer. But I do enjoy trying all kinds of beers. Sours have been my area of new exploration.

    I am going to proxy a guess for @ncpattyspub since he cannot post yet because he is to new, he wants to guess 650. If this isn't allowed @pimpinmidget let me know and I will remove the post.

    Awesome! I like hops, stouts and sours in order from most loved to slightly less most loved.
