Heavy Metal BIF: Metal and Beer

Beers: Only black beers will be considered, along with beers that have some brutal artwork, one way or the other. Something that spells pwned like nothing else. 66.6oz or larger, bonus points for multiples thereof.

Music: I want to say 2 CDs: One based on the Chosen One's favorite bands/genre and one based on yours. After all, metal is more about you than the person you are throwing to the floor in the pit.

Keeping it Local: Every metalhead knows their favorite band graduated from their garage to the corner bar that sold 50 cent Buds to frat boys who thought metal was cool because it was noisy. Support your local breweries with some local beers that don't see much distribution. Added karma for including information/music by local bands. Note: stuff in here doesn't count to the first 66.6oz but counts there on.

Schwag: Any metal related schwag is an added bonus for extra karma. Anything goes here - patches, stickers, posters and anything that can be put in a box.

NOTE: Adding Trappist beers to the box resets sent count to zero. You will have to resend if you do!
