BIF #10 Growlers Plus Bif Round 2

NBO: Growler Plus BIF - Round 2



Round 1 is done and there were some awesome boxes shipped, with growlers from Hill Farmstead, COAST, Town Hall, Cigar City, Ithaca, and many others. We’re getting ready for Round 2 and I’m looking for a few more BA’s, particularly some west of the Mississippi, to get in on the action.

The Rules for Round 2 will be: Two Breweries One Box: 128oz total, 64 oz growler. Pick two breweries and everything in the box is going to be from one of those two breweries.

Target Ship Date: 11/7/11


Round 2 Rules:
Two Breweries One Box:
128oz total, 64 oz growler.
Pick two breweries and everything in the box is going to be from one of those two breweries.

BIF #9 - Locals Only

NBO - Locals Only

OK folks, this is the chosen group for the Locals Only BIF. It's a sizeable group of participants, but I think I've got the target list set - remember, try to stay with beers from your home state, or a bordering state, that have limited distribution.

I need everyone's shipping info, shirt size and any preferences you may have regarding the swag item(s). Once I get the info, I'll start BM'ing everyone with their target's info.
*The shipping window is the week of Oct 24th, let's try to have the packages arrive before Halloween.
I'll attach the requirements below, please shoot me a BM if you have any questions at all.

Let's really kill this one guys. Cheers!
Carl

Minimum Requirements:
*shotgun style BIF,
*100 oz of beer minimum, at least 5 different beers (not breweries) Growlers are fine, just be sure to ship them fresh and pack well.
*at least half your oz must come from seasonals or limited releases
*must include local brewery swag, t-shirts are acceptable, nice glassware is gladly accepted as well. Let's say a minimum of $15 worth of swag, so a t-shirt or some glassware and other trinkets. That way we're all on a level playing field with the swag.Again, make it something you'd be happy to own and I'm sure the other party will be pleased.

Remember these are just "minimums", feel free to ship whatever amount of beer or swag makes you happy. Let the karma flow forth and it will flow back to you..

Bif #7 - Telephone BIF -

Hi all,

This is the group for the first Telephone Game BIF. Here are how I envision things working. I'll send out a box the week of September 17th. I'm going to wait until then because I want to grab some things that I have been cellaring in my in-laws basement. I'm going to ship 4 bottles and a glass (pint glasses are ok as long as they are cool) to the first lucky person. They will keep 2 bottles and the glass, and then add two bottles and a glass and then send on a box to the target I give them.

- I used a random number generator to assign targets. I switched two people after the fact so no one is getting a box from someone too close to them.

- Let's say that the minimum dollar amount per bottle is $12. I'm going to put in bottles that ranged from $15 to $30 a piece, just to give you an idea.

- Each bottle should be a bomber or larger.

- When you get the box, pick your two bottles and enter the beers and your username in the notebook that I include. This will be a log of what people have received.

- For fun, let's say that there are no repeats. Say I include a 2010 Darkness (this isn't a beer I'm including, just an example). No one else can use 2010 Darkness as long as this BIF exists. Different years count as different beers though (so a 2011 Darkness would be fine).



Bif #8 - NOOB Round 6

NBO: N00B BIF Round 6 - Signups until October 2nd



The rules for this round:
144 ounce minimum (at least 2 large format bottles)
*300 ounces maximum*
at least one piece of swag
wants if you can, top 100 if you can

Shipping window: October 17-30

If you're new to the trade scene you'll need to find a sponsor. That is, an active BA who is willing to help you throughout the process and will take responsibility for you sending out your box. If you need a sponsor, please post in this thread.

If you're willing to sponsor a N00B please keep up good contact with them. Remember: sponsorship should not be taken lightly. If the person you're sponsoring flakes you'll be sending out a box in their place!

New this round: I'll have section leaders overseeing small groups. As a section leader all you need to do is keep tabs on 10-20 BAs and update me every week or so. This will save me from having to communicate with as many as 100 BAs individually!
