    So far I have 7 bottles for my target. 6 of which are wants. Lumped together these bottles have a....
    Combined average rating: 4.26
    Combined wants/gots ratio: 920 wants. 245 gots

    I'm not done either

    Since we are throwing it out there... I'm probably good on just about all things Bruery, Cascade, Russian River, New Glarus, and Lost Abbey.

    Hint: There is a town in my targets state that has the same name as my favorite cartoon snail.

    Also, putting a very non-sour/funk/sasion extra off my targets wants list in his box, mainly because I like to break rules.

    I'm stoked! this is my favorite BIF. Looks like I should be able to hit a few (or a bunch more) of my target's wants. There is a release that is coming up that may make its way into my target's box. Lets see what else I can find to stick in there... may have to dig a bit deep

    I must be slacking, I've only hit 4 wants so far. Refilling some stuff recently drank and rated highly as well.

    My box might be traveling the longest distance in this BIF. I will fill a 12 bottle shipper to capacity, and it's looking like all 12 might end up being wants. BOOM

    My targets haves and wants may or may not intersect a bit, especially recent haves. If you had things listed as wants, but now have them and dont want a second, it might be a good idea to clean that up? I will do it on mine right now incase I missed some, I have had problems sending to people like this in the past.

    As my targets wants stand today I will only be able to hit 3 or 4 (maybe some updating would help). Either way I should be able to put together some good beers.

    Looks like my target has posted in here already. Have a few things lined up so far, will be adding to the box for the next couple weeks likely. My box will be making a pretty long trek.​

    When you say haves, do you mean gots or hads?

    Hmm, don't think that's me. I may have one or two, but that's just because I like them so much!

    Just put a request in with a great BA for some HF beers, hope to get some.

    My target has shipped to me and I have shipped to him. This is my last hint until ship, for good reason...

    I have also updated some of my "wishes"

    By stalking researching my target, I have already been introduced to a new beer that I really enjoy and can find pretty easily

    I am doing pretty well on hitting almost all wants for my target, but some of those wants are older so if he might want to update them.

    I don't understand what he is going to do with some of the beer I send him because he only drinks beer that are rated ... wait for it























    4.6 or higher.

    Have a great long weekend everyone and do me a favor - as you drink you beer remember all of those who made it possible. Cheers to all the Veterans out there. As the saying goes "Freedom isn't free"

    Late to the party, again, but I too have access to all of the Bruery sours (unless we're talking the Wanderer or SITR w/Peaches). Also have a ton of the GI sours, but will take pretty much anything from HF, Lawson's, Tired Hands, and Allagsh sours!!!! I will make sure wants are updated today, and this is my favorite BIF EVAH!!!! Did I mention I like HF?

    As for my target, I think I can make him pretty happy with some funky thunder raining down on his front porch. I haven't ever traded with him before, he's a member of the Bruery RS, and he is east of me. Can hit several wants, but will also expose him to some NW beauties he's likely never tried.

    Oh, and I like Hill Farmstead.

    Cheers!
    Jeff

    P.S. - Thanks to Korey for running this again!

    My target is west of me :slight_smile:

    Not going to give many hints, going to play this one on the low.

    And P.S. I am FUCKING stoked at how much activity we have had in this thread in just the past week! This BIF is amazing, and I feel it will just keep growing into more greatness. I am very happy to have had the opportunity to run this BIF twice now, and would love to in the future.
