    Hey BAs,

    I had a lot of fun doing the Bowl Game LIF last December and I figured since I am going to be making a similar run again this upcoming weekend, why not grab a few extras and pass along some of the FL goodness.

    Rules:
    1. You must be able to provide me with a shipping label if you win
    2. You must have at least 3 completed trades here to participate
    3. You must have 100% feedback
    4. No St. Pete / Tampa / Surrounding Area local BAs.
    This is for BAs without immediate access to these beers
    5. Closest to the whole number will win - No Price is right rules this time - ties will be settled by winner going to the earlier post.
    6. Deadline to reply with an answer is: 02/21/2015 at 11:00 AM EST - any posts after this time are not valid entries
    7. If two BAs choose the same answer, the first post in the thread with the correct answer wins - double check other answers before replying
    8. 1 Entry per eligible BA

    The Beer Run:
    This Saturday (2/21) I will be stopping by a few breweries / bottle shops after I go to the Russian Mail Order Bride Release at Green Bench Brewing in St Pete (HINT: I am picking up 3 sets. Click the link for more info) The plan includes stops at Three Palms, Cigar City, Cycle and more! Lueken's will be one stop and at least one Total Wine stop as well.

    The Beers/Prizes:
    I plan to grab a few Crowlers to go from each brewery. Which beers exactly? Not sure yet, I will make that decision when I am at each brewery. Most likely IPAs like Jai Alai or Crank but there is always a chance I grab something else like Cream and Sugar Please. Hoping there are some one-offs this time! I may also grab some swag to include.

    How to Win!
    Reply to this thread with the following whole number:

    Prize #1. Total amount of beer I bring back home from this trip - in Ounces (i.e. 1300oz total)

    I will take a haul photo of all of my purchases/pickups and list them all out in this thread.

    Deadline to reply with an answer is: 02/21/2015 at 11:00 AM EST- any posts after this time are not valid entries

    Based on my last two beer trips, I'm guessing somewhere between 264oz (it was a small one) and 9600oz (it was a big one)...

    So lemme say... 1233 oz.

    Thanks for the chance!

    Seriously.... that's 300 crowlers, or 36 cases of bombers... I mean, my cellar is bigger than that, but I've spent the last year+ building that, not a single weekend.....

    A friend and I went to Cali to pick up our entire Hoarders haul, as well as our Rare Barrel stuff... And a lot of things along the way. 32 full cases of 750s and quite a few growlers. So actually I kinda underestimated above...
