The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

Actually, that was the beer that I brought to WA from FIBland (except for the cascade). Needed to make room for all of the WA, OR, and CA goodness that I brought back! (Including the Logsdon Seizon Bretta--which I just discovered in my neighborhood Binny's today--On the downside, I could have brought back a different beer. On the upside, I guess that we get Logsdon in IL now!)

(And #PBM2015???)

 

All four boxes for 12-days and AA dropped off at the shipping department. Fate is in the ever incapable hands of FedEx now.

I offered to make the FedEx run today, feeling bad that 3/5 boxes going out were my 12-shippers. They said to go back to my office and sell stuff...not sure if good or bad...

AA Content Hint:

After I mistakenly thought you had no CO sours on your wants list and including this morning's switcheroo, I am hitting 6 wants with these first 2 boxes. There are 2 more I'm pretty certain are wants, but aren't on your list. Either way, you'll be happy I think. Also a few that really should be wants that you've never heard of...one named after my favorite non-beer mixed drink.

A third box will go out in mid-july containing some fresh hops, a few more extras, and some swag (and perhaps another bottle?) from a release I'll be attending during the 12-days...

 

Reverse AA Hints since my Sender has gotten quiet, but I'm onto him with a little help from modern technology. Box looks to land Thursday! Also I'm in that weird antsy stage where you know beer is en route from you or to you (or in my case, multiple boxes going BOTH directions)...must do something to keep from crazily checking trackers every 15 minutes!

Hint 1: My SENDER's state has a water feature (bay, ocean, lake, river, spring, drainage-ditch, etc) named after it.

 

I like this reverse hints setup. That is pretty funny.

 

Long story........... documented somewhere here or in the 12 Days of Summer thread.

#PBM2015

Lurks back out........

 

He already explained this in the 12-days thread. Means "Please Beer Me 2015" --> he is requesting to be ninja'ed.

 

Ha! Not even close.

#PBM2015

Lurks back out......

 

Guess I wasn't too far off--I thought that it meant Porch Bomb Mipper... So... When in Rome...

 

Finally back home... 20 pages to catch up on.

Found a totally unexpected porch bomb from @mklisz waiting for me. WTF DUDE??? Much appreciated! Good deeds don't go unpunished so you're in the blacklist now... (although I still owe a couple of return ninja boxes before I can return fire cough @wheelzntoys - haven't forgotten).

Cheers!!

 

So i was just about to head out to drop my boxes of to fedex when i get an alert on my phone saying theres a possibility of a tornado. At least if it gets serious we will take shelter in the cellar, where all my beer is!

 

Still bummed I missed you...
Come back to the NW and we'll go to OR next time.

 

second tornado watch here since Saturday, fun times

 

#VBS - Quality control for my extra's inventory:



Yep, this one will do nicely!

 

Yeah it got real dark real quick. Im glad i turned around as i originally forgot my phone at home. I would have drove right into bad weather and probably got stuck somewhere. It rained so hard i couldnt see my neighbors house lol. But its passed unfortunately not soon enough for me to get out and get to fedex in time.

Hopefully my target doesnt mind waiting one more day. I promise, its worth it

 

I just got invited to their tap room after meeting their head of sales (ironically while dropping off beer boxes at FedEx), he tossed me a pint glass, sticker, and a free drink coupon

 

@Dave_Treat - how much solar abyss were you looking for?

 

AA Target: I've been awful with hints this round, but I went ahead and picked everything up today! Per your request, no IPAs; it was hard not getting a Yellow Rose for you though. Shipping by the end of the week!

 

I think he's off the grid on his canoeing trip, might want to text him so he'll at least see it when he gets back, if not sooner.

 

Does that make this a BIB (Beer it Backwards?)

 

I can track your progress through the thread based on what old posts you're liking -- I think you're still at least a week behind (or I had a couple of bad posting days)...
