SWTFYW Hints and Hauls!!!

I'm incredibly glad that we are finally get Jackie O's in Columbus - it's awesome to see Oil of Aphrodite and any of their IPAs on tap around the city. Now if they would just CAN those...

I have heard that Mystic Mama is their next can, though, so that's something!

 

I want every box to be packed roughly like this. Think of it as a tutorial, a challenge, or maybe a request. Dollar tree pool noodles are cheaper than styrofoam peanuts (seriously... Office Depot tried to destroy my wallet for some damned styrofoam peanuts... screw that noise), more reusable, and don't get all over my living room when I open boxes.

... and another (possibly final?) hint from MMBrew:

 

I know who this is!!!

...but it's not me.

 

i think i do too!

 

very interesting...

 

let me ask another question as this is my first bif...are we giving hints so that our sender figures it out or giving hints to keep a few people in the running to make it a surprise?

Hint 3: The city I am moving to has a popular brewery that brews a series of beers that is now on #109


looks like they are on #110 now.

 

I was under the assumption that people should have a decent guessing chance right before it arrives.

 

another hypothetical question if your were my target which one of the beer that Jackie O's is releasing would you want.

• Dynamo Hum. Our 2013 vintage was aged for 22 months in a Cabernet barrel that had held the previous years Dynamo.

• Eveyln a barrel aged sour brown ale with raspberries added to the barrel. A blend of an 18 month and a 28 month old barrel.

• Chunga's Old Bruin is a sour brown ale aged in oak barrels with cherries added. Our 2013 vintage is a blend of 20 month and 33 month old barrels.

• Cabernet Barrel Aged Aberrance is our black saison. We aged it in a Cabernet barrel for 6 months with some carefully selected wild yeasts and bacterias.

Hint: My target has a lot of state pride

 

Those all sound good to me

 

Sadly, I eliminated you as a target, but those 2 sound especially good. They all sound great though.

 

Hint #1 I'm shipping east
Hint #2 My target's state is smaller than mine
Hint #3 My target has more wants, gots and hads than me
Hint #4 My target's state has more letters in it than mine
Hint #5 My target will be getting a want that is glassware

 

Crap... I forgot to pack my brewery swag!! Damnit.

Target: next time I'm at FedEx , I will send you the snifter I had for you.

 

Bam! According to the wife there is a box on the stoop. **** to follow shortly.

I figured you had Ten Fidy, but did you notice the canning date on the bottom? Glad to see it all got there in one piece. Box two is set to launch in the middle of next week, so it's a good thing you're planning on making some room.

 

That's a hell of a packout to get those chips there unscathed, too.

Kudos!

 

Great box....now we have to wait all weekend and part of next week till boxes start hitting.

I have good and bad news for my target, I don't think you will be getting more than 200 oz's. On the bright side, you are getting mostly wants and some very very nice bottles.

 

My target doesn't eat tofu....or does he????

 

Picked up a spicy and polarizing limited release for my target yesterday from a brewery that does not deliver to his area. I sampled the product earlier this week and I loved it! Ill let my target judge this one for himself.

One of my favorite mexican inspired restaurants is nearby my targets location. They make an excellent creamy corn salsa that also happens to be the namesake of this particular place. We will be visiting this place again in Oct.
