    This is the 7th iteration of the single bottle shipper LIF started by Sender. I won mcaulifww's version 6 by stalking the crap out of him. Luckily a restraining order did not come with the bottle of Brux. I'm going to turn this shipper around as quick as possible. Here we go.

    The winner of this LIF will receive a 750mL 2011 Cantillon Classic 100% Lambic Bio. I'll probably sneak some coasters and stickers in the box if possible. This LIF is meant to be perpetual so please only participate if you're willing to start version 8 in a reasonable time frame. I'm going to keep this lower 48 only. One guess per hint. I'm not doing shit today other than watching the Olympics so hints should be abundant.

    I took a couple extra days this weekend away from work (Friday and today). I didn't do much and it was everything I imagined it could be. Get all of these right and the single bottle shipper will be headed your way.

    1.) What's the name of the bar in Northern Colorado I visited Friday afternoon.
    2.) I was also at Odell's on Friday. How many ounces of beer did I purchase?
    3.) What style of beer did I leave in my freezer on Saturday, and didn't discover until yesterday?
    4.) What four toppings (veggies, sauces, cheese, etc) did I put on my burger Saturday night?
    5.) How many beers did my neighbor and I try yesterday?

    Hint #1 I purchased multiple vessels of beer at Odell.

    One clarification, for #3 I'm looking for the exact style as listed on BA. ie, American Wild, or gueuze, or flanders red instead of sour. Pschul, you can edit or guess again.

    Only one topping has been guessed. I had cheese, but the correct kind hasn't been guessed yet.

    Is this to imply not a single other question has been guessed right? Or am I putting too many words in your mouth :wink:

    This is not correct, but I will be going there in a couple weekends for a fresh fried basket (and frozen to go) of Rocky Mountain Oysters.

    Looks like everyone is on to #2. The bar is in Fort Collins. The style has still not been guessed. The cheese, veggie, and additional meat added to the burger have been guessed multiple times. I did not have mushrooms on my burger. Still missing the sauce component.
