    Looks like I've been ninja'd, thanks again Andy. Should be seeing a box from me yourself some time today
    Now for the box...
    Neshaminy Creek Shape of Hops to Come - awesome bitter bomb, glad to have another
    Dock St Rye IPA - love what rye brings to the table, my favorite subgenre of the IPA
    Dock St Ain't Nothin to Funk With - Want x1000, perfect marriage of my love for sour and Wu Tang
    Surly Abbrasive - another want getting ticked, this won't last long

    Round 1 I was but a child emerging from the womb, googling things like "what does LIF mean" and being far too direct in my hints.
    Now I am a man, a grizzled veteran well versed in the arts of porch bombing and horribly vague and deceptive clues. With that I open up my round 2 hints...

    Hint #1: you are, to my knowledge, a human. One who I hope enjoys NE hops amongst other things

    Dear Target,

    Like @VetsPackage I was too forthcoming with my hints during my first two BIFs. The first round of the Summer Newbie I was narrowed down to a couple of New Jersey guys pretty easily. For the Locals Turkey BIF I was called out before my box even shipped. This go around I will try to make @Mipper proud with many headache inducing hints.

    Also been thinking about this and just gonna throw it out there:
    Anyone open to the idea of starting a new thread for round 2? This one has become outrageously long and it'll be a nightmare trying to look back on once clues really start rolling in and you try to narrow down your pool of senders. Also I scraped ice off my windshield for like the 5th time already this year and seeing "Summer" in the title is really making me hate all your southerners

    Glad it landed safely. I'll be home late tomorrow. The wife will open and put whatever needs to go into the fridge. Cheers.

    As some of you have noticed, I'm sending out targets today (finally... jeez this guy is a slacker). It's taking me forever because of some combination of site issues and ISP issues, but I've got a tab for everybody ready to hit "Post" so it's just a matter of time.

    @Bristopher89 No BA Hazelnut for me. I'm 4 hours away from Cycle and have never had anything from them. I plan on going there for the first time in March when I'm in Tampa for Huna day.

    Also Target Acquired.

    Do we know when tickets will be on sale and the chances of getting them?

    I'm driving by Saint Pete on Friday, hoping to grab a couple of growlers. Do you know if it is still available?
