    Some of these guesses are looking a little "illogical" to me...

    I think you are right. It is tough to tell the motive behind the guesses for the cities...some people may still be trying to narrow down which 2 are correct so until I give a more concrete hint on those, people are safe...BUT, I made it clear that no one had gotten the State I can't make it to which would mean previous guesses before the last hint are out of the running...


    cneville, my friend, I'm sorry but Nebraska is impossible since it was guessed earlier by jaminjohnson (post #154). You are eliminated from this round. In the future...eliminations could last longer. Remember you can be reinstated even from long penalties by sending even a small box to The Target!

    HINT: The good news is that in this round we have another correct city and the correct state!

    Guess again. The person with the right state just earned themselves 3 Bonus Points!

    Wow! This box just arrived today from a very generous person in NY!

    Who was it? (I know your real name... but not your BA username)
    Thank you!

    [​IMG]

    Jolly Pumpkin - Oro de Calabaza
    Captain Lawrence - Hops n Roses
    Founders - KBS
    Central Waters - Bourbon Barrel Barleywine
    Brooklyn Brewery - Black Chocolate Stout

    I'm a huge fan of sour and funk. I love Jolly Pumpkin and I'm really excited to try Captain Lawrence's Hops n Roses (I tried to get it on a recent visit with friends in Brooklyn, but it was sold out!)

    My wife really loves the bourbon barrel flavor, but I never expected to receive such heavy hitters... Founders only recently started distribution in Maine - so I've never had a chance to see or try KBS, and I've only seen general releases from Goose Island... the barleywine looks fantastic as well (had never heard of it, and just read some reviews)... I used to live in Brooklyn (it's where I started getting into beer) - so it was especially nice to see something from them as well! This is so awesome!

    This is the first box I've ever received on BA - it was nice for me to see how it was packaged, bottles bagged and wrapped with packaging, box loaded with newspaper, styrofoam, etc. Edges of box heavily secured with packing tape... I can do that.

    Thanks!!!

    This is an awesome display of Beer Advocacy at its finest! Props to sidebordz on sending such a generous box, and welcome to the club mathematizer! I hope you get a few more boxes. Trading is fun...but it can be a slippery slope as previously indicated.

    First off...that is awesome! The target in now officially a LIF winner...I sure we can crown a few more over the course of this LIF as I have a few boxes to send out in addition to any outstanding displays of beer advocacy such as this!

    Nicely done Sidebordz...you have earned your way back into the competition (this round was a freebie for everyone) next round after having broken a rule in Round 2. Well played.

    Not only that but you have earned yourself some major bonus points (I will award them at the end of this round after any other boxes arrive...at least one more to come, keep your eyes open Target!)

    You will also be eligible for the "Beer Karma" Prize Box! Only those who earn their way into this drawing are eligible for this prize. So congrats!

    There will be other opportunities and other targets. This LIF still has some life left in it.
