    Update your wants and start hoarding bubble-wrap...

    Just to reiterate the guidelines:
    A minimum of 132 oz. of local, non-widely distributed beers.
    Send your target a big ol' box of yummy beers that you yourself would be elated to receive.

    1 piece of brewery swag.
    Glassware, T-shirt, mittens etc.


    Have fun everyone!

    If you're in Minneapolis, Seattle will still be a little North.

    Target acquired!
    Looks like I'll be shipping north.

    I haven't been to my target's neck of the woods in quite a while. I've had many a good time up there, though.

    And I have my target....

    Hint #1: my target already knows who he is. That should be all he needs.

    I just picked up a ton of local ipas and sours. My target didn't list his preferences, so I went by his highest rated beers.

    I know we'll be shipping in April, but any precautions we should take for shipping into the polar vortex? Looks like atleast half of the country is gonna be below freezing this weekend. #LoveFlorida

    All right, I'm glad some people are getting their targets now. I'm excited to get this thing started! As far as the polar vortex I don't think it should be an issue by the time you send in April. But if it does become an issue, I would say err on the side of caution and wait until it warms up. Just contact Hastur and he can contact your target to let them know the situation.
