    Setting up a trade now for an amazing sour from a brewery in Texas that is know for it's wild ales and hasn't disappointed me yet. I will probably be shipping towards the latter end of the window but it will be worth the wait!

    Hint #2: My target lives in the same time zone as me and has posted in this thread less than me.

    FYI to my sender, a massive box from PA just went through my intermediary and will take another week or so to get to me. It doesn't get opened as to avoid multiple destroyed porches. I can't wait!

    Hint #1: My target lives in a state I've never visited (but always wanted to party there).

    ----------------

    To my sender: I'm pretty much a sour virgin, so feel free to pop my kriek!

    My target lies east of me. If I ship towards the end of the window, I should be well positioned send a box o' sour wants.

    To my sender: my wants are kind of hard, I will be adding some more stuff shortly.

    My box to my target will ship after a local release of sour awesomeness. I hope he doesn't mind. His patience will be rewarded :wink:

    Im waiting on one much anticipated and a couple under-the-radar brews that will be coming out in the next couple of weeks here. Hopefully it'll be worth it for my target to wait a little bit :slight_smile:

    If its under the radar, then I dont think it is allowed. Send me three bottles and I will let you know if it is okay to ship...stricitly for research purposes and the good of the BIF.

    My targets will have to wait about 3 more weeks, I am travelling for work over the next two weeks and gathering up some solid sours along the way.

    I'm probably going to wait until the end of the shipping window so I can grab some other local sours that are on deck to be released. Hope they release in time.

    Would it be wrong to not send any Belgian sours? Right now, I've got beers from Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, and Colorado. Hoping to add Tennessee and Missouri to the mix. Several of these beers are wants.

    Box is traveling to someone who has posted in this thread less than me.

    I don't think Belgians were specified so that looks like a topflight mix. You'll have a very happy Dummy for those Sours.
