Anything from your state is fair game.

    Think I'm cracking an Anna and a oude de tart tommorow.

    Really Interested to see what the Anna is going to taste like.

    I liked Arthur better than Anna...but neither are really my thing. HF does saisons the best of what I have had though.

    1. You agree to send a minimum of 4 local beers to your target. A minimum of 48oz of beer is required. You can certainly go above and beyond that, but please no more than 8 beers so that you don't make everyone else look bad
    2. You agree that upon receiving the mystery beer box, that you will be vigilant and get the box shipped to your target within 10 days of getting it, ensuring that time between targets is minimal.
    3. You also agree that if the box you send to someone is damaged in transit and undeliverable that you are still responsible for supplying your target with beer. This ensures no one gets left out. You will need to reorganize, pack it better, and re-ship within 1 week.

    Once the field of participants is set, I will organize the journey of the box and will ask everyone to submit to me a list of styles they prefer so that someone who likes stouts and IPA's doesn't get a box of sours....

    So up to 8 people this time...I am in as organizer, so that leaves 7 more spots. By replying in this thread that you are "in", you are agreeing to the terms listed above.

    ready. set. go.
    If there's room I'm game. I might be too late though.

    Lol. I don't need any Mexican brews for a long time.

    Speaking of which I know Tecate was on your wish list. I'll drop one in the box for you this week!

When I drop them off they will give me a code on which batch of Native I "helped brew" so if I want to go buy some I can.

    The wife and I were just discussing buying some hop plants to start this year and the rhizomes showed up, good timing.
    That's awesome man, you'll have to let us know how the rhizomes do! I've been wanting to grow some but don't have a good spot for a tall trellis.

    It might of been the best looking ipa I have ever seen.
    I can't get in to the smoked beers at all. Hadn't had one for a while so I recently picked up a Aecht Schlenkerla Eiche (supposedly one of the better ones) and thought it was terrible, just couldn't handle the smoke.

    This weekend my wife saw a Rogue Voodoo Bacon Maple Doughnut Ale in my fridge and wanted to open it. She was surprised when I said go right ahead, and I explained to her that it was the single nastiest beer I've ever tasted. That surprised her since she loves the actual doughnut, but she concurred after tasting and it was promptly poured down the drain.

    Got a fresh growler fill of Gandhi-Bot yesterday, it's about 48 hours old now. Still a solid brew. Also, for those in the Ants Beer Thread Mystery Beer Box LIF (Local It Forward) Volume 2 I'm just going to repost this useful tool http://www.seekabrew.com/distro/index.html and drop that my user name over at Untappd is konstantsavant.

    Like I said before, I am not going to ship the first box until the end of the month. If you want in I could probably work you in towards the end of the mystery box tour which would mean you wouldn't be shipping until late June ish. Let me know.
