    Seeing some great hints coming through, think I've been able to cross 5 or so more off my list. And sounds like we are all square on the 24 participants.

    Ny might not be California but I think I can find some decent locals. And I can hit a couple of other states within an hour's drive...

    lol... I was being sarcastic, NY is a great state for local beer! ...just off the top of my head: Sixpoint, Brooklyn, Ithaca, Ommegang, and Evil Twin, all awesome breweries!

    If the beers were all out of my distro, I would love to get a box with Ommegang Hennepin & Three Philosophers, Sixpoint Resin & Bengali Tiger, Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout, Ithaca Flower Power, and any random assortment of Evil Twin, all local and all exceptional.

    Yeah I figured you were kidding. I'm not a big Ommegang fan but I agree on all the others.

    Point being, while I'm not disagreeing with you sending out 100oz of wants, nothing is stopping you from finding abundant local options if you wanted to go that way, it's not like you live in Wyoming :slight_smile:

    I guess I'll have to fill some more of my target's wants. Definitely not local, but a want is a want. Totally didn't realize that brewer didn't distribute to my target's area(despite it being about 500 miles closer).

    I'm hoping to tick 5 wants off my target's list.

    Hint #1 - Shipping East
    Hint #2 - Will be hitting a few wants (is that considered a hint or just general niceness?)
    Hint #3 - I had a job interview with this persons local sports team. Obviously I did not get the job or I wouldnt be shipping to them
    Hint 4 - I love your states beverage
    Hint 5 - Your package will contain beer(s) from a brewery that only has 23 beers listed on here. A true local.
    Hint 6 - Not shipping to the shore
