    Still in the running, depending on what part of Spokane you're attempting to build in.

    Teaser here; a new brewery in my town released their first bottles a couple days ago. 200 bottles, brewery only, won't be made again. I obtained 1% of the bottling run. My target will get .5% of the bottling run. I dropped .5% of the bottling run on the floor of the next bar I stopped at.:slight_frown:

    If my math is correct, you got two bottles. And you are giving half of a percent of those 2 bottles to your target and spilled another half a percent on the floor of a bar. That means you still have 99 percent of those 2 bottles. I'm just unclear why you're keeping so much for yourself.

    No. I'm giving a half-percent of the entire bottling run to my target. Unless I grab another bottle, I have zero percent. Also, they kegged none of this beer, it's bottles only.

    Actually, it's my morning + reading that are bad here. @beertunes math (and use of English) was perfectly fine.

    Well I'm still trying to figure out another hint for my Jersey Boy's (tm), but I think I might have a clue on who my sender is...

    No problem, life happens. I just pity you for the sheer volume of utter nonsense you'll have to plow through to find any hints that might be for you!

    Today's (1st?) hint: My target is east of the Colorado Rockies.

    So you're not shipping to the Arizona Diamondbacks?

    Nope. Nor the Seattle Mariners, Anaheim Angels, Los Angeles Dodgers, or San Francisco Giants.

    Damn it! I knew there was a team I'd forget. But can we even count the Padres?

    Well, it was easy, nobody ships to the A's!

    Here's another hint: My target's highest rated beer is not an IPA.

    Damn, how did I forget them?!? A's were my team growing up. But I never forgave them for trading away McGwire and Canseco.

    That's my point. Math should not be used by anyone before noon. Math should come with a warning label and be considered a controlled substance.
    No one's target is the Padres, in or out of this thread.
