Was hoping to get mine out yesterday, but that didn't work out. Went out via UPS today, though, so all is well!

Just got my box from ReaperUnreal! Thanks dude! Whole lot of Canadian beer I've never heard of in here, and one I have heard of -- Dieu du Ciel's Peche Mortel, which I'm stoked to try. My box'll be going out tomorrow, and it's going all the way across the country so hopefully it won't take forever to arrive.

Yuuu, I've been reading through the old BIFs for some reason and I'm really pumped to hopefully get in on the next one. I would have applied for this round but I ended up missing out on most of the extreme things I would've wanted to send out. Beer generosity is the best kind.

I think the New Glarus Berliner Weiss is my favorite out of all those beers I sent. I had a hard time finding barleywine in Chicago in the summer. Enjoy!

Mine just showed up, and drat. Photos are currently being uploaded from my phone, will edit this post when they come in. Edit: Here we go! Sorry for the less than great photos, apparently my phone camera isn't what it used to be.   Thanks Tonde Mo Nai, you hit the ball out of the park with this!

Awesome, I'm glad they all made it safe and sound. (Maybe they didn't make the picture, but there was also a NG Scream IIPA and a second Anti-Hero, right?) I couldn't resist sending the Straight Jacket along because it's definitely one of my favorite beers that I've had this year and it's absurd that you can still find it on shelves. For the rest, enjoy the hops! My box from nosleep is on my doorstep. This workday can't end soon enough.

I didn't even see the Scream when I was unpacking, drat! Pulled it out just now. I had pulled out the second Anti-Hero though, and thanks again!

drat. These boxes are legit - making me wish I hadn't run out of space in the one I sent! Will definitely have to get a 12-bottler for the next BIF.

Well, it looks like about half the boxes have been sent out with about 1/4 received! Please remember to post when you get your box. If you haven't already done so, post here asking for tracking info if you want it sent to you! My package went out today!

Man, maybe next BIF will be regional themed where people in the same local area team up.

I have everything purchased and ready to ship, but i'm waiting to send until Tuesday so the box won't spend the long weekend in a hot warehouse or truck.

air- posted:We did talk about that remember Yeah this is the "gang bang" BIF that comes up from time to time. The problem is there's approximately 9000000000 Chicagoons and 2-3 posters in most other regions so it's hard to make the logistics work. One option would be to make like 3 smaller Chicago groups to spread things out. Instead of 2 people having to buy $600 worth of beer to match the enormous Chi box

Well this was a first  Was not actually my BIF box, but what the gently caress, no way was that box 36 pounds, probably was 30 though. I think its time to switch to FedEx even though it is not across the street from my house.
