    Whenever I start taking a hobby to seriously I generally go cold turkey and take a break from it, For Instance I like and follow almost all sports and am somewhat of a statgeek, but when i get to the point where I'm watching ESPN and instead of focusing on sports i'm trying to mentally set Skip Bayless or Chris Berman on fire from my basement i'll just stop watching for a couple months. So while i still kept drinking great beer and kept in touch with some great BA's i hadn't signed in for about 5 months. However like an addict I'm back. I see the site changeover is happening at a blazing pace, and some lady named Ann is making everyone miserable. To kick of my first post in the new format i figured i would do a LIF.

    A BA Hi-Fi Rye to the winner with other assorted beers

    Rules: Lower 48 states, didn't go to the release. Ill keep it open through the weekend.

    Below is a blurry unorganized pic of some beer, you need to guess what they are, whoever gets the most correct brewery plus beer gets the box. (There are duplicate beers in there, no need to list them twice)

    LOL

    I'm going to make my guesses later, but I just had to say that I often find myself doing the same.

    OH! I have that vintage too. I should have known.

    Thanks again and welcome back! The BA Hi-Fi Rye is the perfect addition to the lineup of Barley/Wheat Wines for the "wine" tasting I'm throwing here in Athens. If anyone wants to come it will likely be on 9/22...BM me.

    Great LIF!
