    Your targets a lucky BA. That beer is fantastic.

    I believe I've eliminated the field to 18 potentials, including the non-posters. Problem is, there are at least 2 other VA dudes in this BIF and there's nothing to distinguish us!

    To my target: I hope you like barrel aged beers. Oh, who am I kidding, I know you like them!

    The nice thing about knowing that 3 of us get together frequently to drink beers. There are even better odds of getting sweet brews in our face.

    After midnight....time to crank out a few more tips:
    Hint #6: At this point, my target has posted multiple times on this thread, but not as many times as Haywire.
    Hint #7: Since my target joined BA, Tiger Woods has won 4 tournaments.

    narrowed it down to 6 possible senders, but really only one or MAYBE two that are strong possibilities.

    Hint 1: It would take me approximately 43 hours to drive to my target's house.​
    Hint 2: My target has also posted already.​
    Hint 3: In a rough comparison of mine and my target's 'gots', it would appear we share only 9 current gots. However, I've had 60+ of his many 'hads'.​
    Hint 4: A world-class IPA from both my 'hads' and 'wants' is brewed in my target's state.​

    Haul teaser: Even without having to lift a finger to purchase anything new for my target - which I am doing over the weekend, but to a lesser extent than the cellar perusing I've done already, I have 256 solid ounces ready to send.

    Some haul facts:
    • Except for one stylistic addition based on listed preferences, everything I'm sending (so far) is on their 'wants' list.
    • The average BA rating for the 13 brews (so far) is 94.4
    • Simply averaged, the rAvg for these 13 is 4.27
    • Stylistically - but not necessarily quantifiably - this haul includes:
      • 4x BA barleywine
      • 3x imperial stout, including one that is BA and rated 100
      • 3x BA sour
      • 1x berliner weisse
      • 1x gose
      • 1x DIPA
    Finally, it is going East. However, I do live just about as far West as I possibly could, so hopefully the proverbial beans have not been spilt.

    Well, I packed up a 12 shipper of bombers last night and noticed I still had beers left that did not fit; so time to start stuffing box #2 :grinning:

    Uh oh, here we go again. If you think that Pimpinmidget is your sender, you should probably go out right now and invest in a back support brace.

    Just filled my target's box to capacity. About 350oz at 50lb set to crush a porch in Pennsylvania. There will be a second box, but it will be a bit smaller. Still hoping for a couple more early fall releases this weekend.

    hint 1: although we are in the same time zone, our states do not border each other.
    hint 2: your state has some really weird sex laws.
    hint 3: the state that i am shipping to ends in a vowel.
    hint 4: in 2010, there were more gun related murders in my state than in yours.
    hint 5: per the 2010 census, my city/town has a higher percentage of white/caucasian residents than that of my target (use pottstown, pa for your data comparison).
    hint 6: part of my target's address contains a name for a member of the [​IMG]
    hint 7: when i remove/alter some letters in my target's state, it makes me giggle like a 6th grader in sex ed class.
