    I swear I do not remember packing that much but I also packed a roll of tape so.

    I have received news that some unknown object of large mass arrived at my doorstep. My confused roommates have taken it upon themselves to carefully unpack the box. I will update with pictures when they arrive.

    My roommates have decided to torture me as punishment for talking about the BIF all week(s) nonstop. I will need to take my "own damn pictures."

    Cross post from the can can BIF. :slight_smile:

    Shot in the dark...anyone have a steady Richmond VA local for local trader? Looking to get a regular trader for my NYC to their Richmond. I’m new to the trading game so I was hoping maybe a regular here could vouch for me or intro me to someone. Posting a local for local in the main trading section is my last resort. Private message me if you have a lead...thanks!

    The roommates I used to have would have just drank it all.

    I've been hit! @dprice sent this awesome box of cans:

    [​IMG]

    From Burley Oak: (really excited for all of these, my first Burley Oak brews!)
    Triple Berry Cheery JREAM
    Carrot Cake JREAM
    Grape Squish with Cabernet Sauvignon grapes
    100 - all Galaxy triple dry hopped DIPA (!!!)
    Investigative Reports - hoppy turpene ale?

    Tree House - Julius (classic!!!)
    Levante - Glitter Parts Pineapple (another new brewery!)
    Tired Hands - Only Void coffee imperial stout (never had one of their stouts before, excited to try)
    Indeed - Rum King (had this once a ways back, psyched to get to have it again)
    Alesmith - Speedway Stout (another classic)

    Thank you so much! You absolutely killed it on my preferences, sent tons of beer I haven't tried before, and were just generally super thoughtful. Cheers!

    No mention of sharing with the roomates has been made. I respect the roomates decision to not take photos or send list of the beers at the home! I'd do the same, but I'm a dick.

    So, if anyone wants to see what "a lack awareness of personal space" looks like, go to post 2258 on the NBS Halle Berry thread (page 56, I think). The minimums are 66-72oz of beer, a piece of swag, and a local food item.

    Mins easily exceeded.

    Fucking ridiculous.

    Seriously.

    Yeah, some of the other BIFs can get a bit crazy. I think that is part of why @swenny916 started up this one, with the limit and very few requirements to participate it's a great way to get people introduced to BIFs. I think it is an awesome idea.
