    From looking at some tracking numbers we should have 3 boxes landing this week.

    Please remember to send me your tracking numbers so I can keep track of who has shipped and who has not. If you were designated a NOOB you wont get your box until your target gets theirs.

    Box coming together nicely. A few more things to try and find.

    Hint #2 My target lives in a state that does not border another country or an ocean.

    Hint 1: shipping south
    Hint 2: shipping east
    Hint #3: my target has posted on this thread.
    Hint #4: My target has at least one person in their avatar.
    Hint #5: My target's state does not have a team still alive in the NBA playoffs.
    Hint #6: At least one former US president lists my target's state as their home state on Wikipedia.
    Hint #7: My target states no style preferences and has no more than 40 wants. Yo, fellas, if you are still in the mix after the first 6, UPDATE YOUR WANTS! Otherwise, there's some real shit brewed not far from me, and you're gonna open your box to find a bunch of Grain Belt cans and a sixer of Leinie's Summer Shandy. Which is, like, a combination of beer, lemonade, and ass juice.

    And to get this party started, archi348 drops a 40lb behemoth on my doorstep! Big thanks to you but the UPS guy is hating me for sure! I think he probably rolled his ankle on my brick steps since one is now is loose. On to the haul...

    Two boxes came today, one was 40lbs of goodness and the other, 40lbs of dog food. Moose picked the wrong box, that shit is mine boy.
    [​IMG]

    Starting with the cans, in all of their glory...
    [​IMG]
    Surly Furious x3 (want)
    Surly Bitter Brewer x2 (should be want)
    Surly Coffee Bender x3 (wife is pumped)
    Surly Over Rated x3 (want)
    Surly Bender x3 (want)
    Indeed Midnight Ryder x3
    Indeed Day Tripper x3
    and of course, Gourmet Buffalo Blue Cheese Peanuts (already half gone...)

    And onto their glass brothers...
    [​IMG]
    Central Waters BBBW (love it)
    CW BB Stout (love it)
    New Glarus Coffee Stout (keeping me in the good graces of the wife)
    New Glarus Black Top (want)
    New Glarus IIPA (want)
    Surly Pentagram (holy want!)
    BCBS (perma-want)
    Founders Backwoods Bastard (perma-want)
    Founders Curmudgeon
    Capital Brewery Autumnal Fire
    Capital Brewery Eisphyre

    Group shot minus a Over Rated and Coffee Bender which were sacrificed to the Beer Gods for the safe travels of their mates.

    Archi348 (can I call you Archi?), you brought the pain and I look forward to paying it forward. You hit many a want and re-stocked the beer fridge. Target, be warned!

    Enjoy Gator! Glad i was able to hit a god number of your wants.

    Sorry about the two soldiers that didn't make it. I thought my pack job was pretty solid, but perhaps i stuffed a bit much into that box. Hopefully the leaks were contained. On the plus side i'm thankful that the losses were ones that i had sent multiple of.

    You may well find a couple replacement cans randomly on your doorstep someday.

    Prosit!

    Final Hint: Shipped today so it gets to my target before his Beercation.

    My box is all over the place, ranging from local to out of your distro. You've drank so much already it was tough to build a box for you.

    As for whomever is my sender. I am on Untappd at Ben10 to see what I've had because I know my Wants on BA is lacking. I'm trying to add as much as I can think of. (At lurpy1's general suggestion).

    Cant wait for our local breweries to start putting their brews in bottles.

    Would of loved to send some Kane or Carton along with my box. Archi set the bar high.
