The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

As soon as I started seeing your hints I was so glad for this

 

If it is me...Spicy for sure...I am behind on my hints though need to get caught up..Been in meetings for work in Chicago the past 2-3 days..Did enjoy not your fathers root beer though and that was fantastic.

 

Seriously, one of my favorite beers ever.

 

It was my first time ever having it and I was not disappointed...

 

I didn't think you were my sender but with the chocolate hint maybe Hershey? I might be the closest to Hershey.

 

Hint/Content Hint: My target has never rated a Troegs beer. That is going to change majorly once my box hits his porch, but don't worry, I'm at least hitting a couple wants as well!

 

Railroads and chocolate has to be an allusion to Hershey and the RR museum in the Lehigh Valley, sodefinitely a PA person! I'm guessing @ninjembro or @PA-Michigander based on Hershey.

@kgncfl well, yeah that too

@PassMeAZima i think I can finally eliminate you, still not 100% though...in any case do whatever you want with tracking, I like "give hints to get there" like @Mikexw suggested.

 

Nice hint -- you've narrowed it down to only possible target!

And Troeg's has lots of good stuff, plus a pretty limited regional footprint -- I think they are a great brewery to go with in a BIF like this (as opposed to somebody like Southern Tier, who is relatively local to me but distributes to most of the country, and to every state represented in this BIF).

 

If you want an example, http://www.beeradvocate.com/communi...-and-hauls-thread.180634/page-43#post-2589010 is what I did last time.

 

I forgot to save the tracking number at first, so I had to figure that one out a few times haha.

 

Thats awesome.

 

Lol it's actually better to do if there are multiple possible targets, since the hints will only work for one of them.

 

Fedex guy dropped this off today. Of course it was such a beast he didn't bother bringing it up to my door and just left it in the mail room.

 

Beer ****!

 

Tease…...

 

Very cool!

Mike is a true champion of great beer and a wonderful BA. Luckily I saw something bought for him, well actually his awesome girlfriend, but I think she will share with him!

 

Awesome haul. Those New England breweries are so good. And Fort Point Pale Ale is particularly delicious.

 

Enjoy, my friend. Tried to keep things either dark or hoppy for you.
