    And since this thread has seriously been lacking them as of late, I think there is a hint up in that picture.

    You never ask a navy man if he'll have another drink, because it's nobody's goddamned business how much he's had already.

    ok, so i got home, and found a nice little box chilling on my porch, i will probably decide which to keep from the six beers that were in there tomorrow, had a long day, its st louis craft beer week, and there are a LOT of events going on, so im pretty tired, and cant deal with this difficult of a decision at the moment, thats how good everything in this box is! to tide you over, i will leave you with a picture of the extras that i found in the box, hows that for a compromise? i know its a terrible picture, but like i said, long day

    The MMMKay is quite nice... strong aroma with great flavors, which is amazing for being wrapped in a 5% lager. I describe it as a sticky bitter finish that lingers until the next drink, which then washes over with fresh citrus & piney hops and starts the ride all over again.

    Take your time, glad to hear the box arrived safely. How about a hint to hold some of us over?

    Hint #4. I made a gamble yesterday (but I think I'll be ok based on a little detective work with this thread) when I purchased one of my target's few wants to which I have reasonable access but that I've been having a hell of a time finding lately. I want to ship this beer out fresh, and would not let it land older than a month in age. It was bottled 7/26 and is being kept nice and cold.

    ***
    Hint #1: I will be shipping to the east and out of my time zone.
    Hint #2: My target lives in a state which I have never visited.
    Hint #3: I can complete the math "24 game" using the digits of my target's zip code. The last step in the first solution I came up with (or the first stated step if answering in a tournament) is "two times twelve is twenty four"

    coming soon! like i said earlier, busy week with lots of events for st louis craft beer week, so my evenings have been pretty busy after work. i will get a pic up either tonight or tomorrow, then get the box out next week. question for the group though, i am going to be taking a day trip to chicago/three floyds on tuesday or wednesday, i could pack up and get the box out on monday, or i could wait until i get back from that and look for something a little more special to put in the box while i am out there. what does everyone think?
