    Hint #1: What does Jason Segel have to do with the IRS?
    Hint #2: Who would Jerry Seinfeld refer to as an artist?
    Hint #3: Out of all the names on the list, my target's is most related to mine (SportsandJorts not my real name,) but more so when Mercury is in retrograde.
    Hint #4: All the hints up to this point have included a secret hidden clue. This one and any follow may not include the same hidden feature.
    Hint #5: Not shipping to @Dan_K

    Hint 6 Target has been on BA less years then i have. Also i know the shipping window is the 20th till the 26th, but i will be in St Louis the weekend of the 26th and would not like to skip the chance of finding something for my targets box so i would most likely be shipping the 28th . I hope thats not a problem.

    Happened to luck upon a long gone barrel aged stout today at a random liquor store that I picked up and will be making its way to my target.

    That actually happened to me too. I stumbled on a KDS about 2 months after it was sold out. It's the best thing ever.

    Haul **** tomorrow?

    Hint #1: I am shipping North
    Hint #2: I am shipping to someone I have never traded with
    Hint #3: I am shipping to a state that is currently colder than where I am shipping from
    Hint #4: My target has less trades than me

    Looking like I'll be sending two boxes for this one.

    As a potential target of yours, I would be OK with waiting an extra week to get more beer. :slight_smile:

    Hint #1: Shipping north of Florida.
    Hint #2: Shipping southeast of Chicago
    Hint #3: Targets state touches the Atlantic.
    Hint #4: Our states share a certain theme park.
    Hint #5: My targets 'most' favorite beer style is not Stouts. In fact, Stouts are 2nd to last on their list.

    Tampa Bay Beer Week kicked my arse. A week of vacation, getting up at 4:30am to line up for beer releases EVERY DAY(ie. Cycle Brewing - St. Petersburg) and many other brewery only releases.

    Targets box(s) is/are coming along great. Stocking up on heavy duty boxes and bubble wrap tonight to begin the packing process. Hope your porch has been fortified and your handyman is on duty to make repairs.

    Cheers!

    Hint#1: shipping west.
    Hint#2: target's state touches a good-sized/large body of water.
    Hint #3: one of the greatest nba basketball players of our generation (let's say since the 80s onward) --arguably in the top 3-- played/plays on a team in my target's state.
    Hint #4: regarding my target's zipcode, there's no helping how odd it is if said outloud -- not even if you add up the digits.
    Hint #5: i have IP traded in your state.
    Hint #6: target's username in scrabble tiles = <14

    last hint since i see "On Vehicle for Delivery Today"...
    Hint #7: "i'm going, going, back, back, to _____, _____"

    I'm currently traveling for vacation, and the first thing I did was make a quick stop at the local bottle shop and grabbed a mixed four pack of stouts for my target. Not gonna lie, not sure if they meet the requirements, but they're local to the state, and he can't get 'em, so I hope theyre good!

    These fall into the extra category.

    ...and here's a #VBS cracked as i sort through this ... an Upland - Malefactor (2015, flanders style red ale; blended sour, aged in bourbon barrels) with said beers in the bkgrd --- though this instance, to be more accurate/topical, may be more aptly named "Benefactor" in honor of Dan's generosity

    Hey Con, I heard you were out of beer...
    Glad you liked it! Having access to your Untappd let me find a bunch of new ticks and I was able to make a side trip to Denver to snag some stuff that doesn't make it down south. That Finkle and Garf BBA Imperial Stout might just be the sleeper of the bunch. Cheers!

    We have a Firestone factory here in town, but sadly they make tires, not beer :slight_frown:
