    Hint 1: Pennsylvania is not the state I'm shipping to in this round.
    Hint 2: Evidently my target doesn't want any beers from a well-known local brewery.
    Hint 3: Overjoyed at the prospect of sending my target a beer they have very recently added to their wants.
    Hint 4: Right, an easy one.. I would have to drive through at least 4 states to reach my target.
    Hint 5: I'm not friends with my target on Untappd... this might give it away. Hopefully, my target is tracking hints.
    Hint 6: Apparently my dear target has not cracked the hints yet. For every additional hint I'll add a bottle to the box.
    Hint 7: If you have fewer than 7 characters in your username, you're not my target. Does this help?
    Hint 8: Latest news is my target might be older than me? Not sure, but they should have everything they need to solve it right here.

    The next hints will be about the tracking number...

    Finally got my BIF box out. Will land on thursday. Going to a state that does not have an NHL team.

    Also, it's not going to @Eziel , but could always use OH brews.

    Hint #1 Not shipping to Yourahoser
    Hint #2 Your wants don't overlap all that much with my state
    Hint #3 You expanded your wants for Round 4, thank you
    Hint #4 If I tried biking from my state to yours, I'd most likely die of exhaustion a third of the way there, in the mountains
    Hint #5 Not shipping to a newbie Newbie
    Hint #6 Your state comes up in history books much more frequently than mine
    Hint #7 Bailey
    Hint #8 "Do you even drink?" kidding, but you consume at a way more modest pace than me
    Hint #9 Your state borders more than 3 states

    Think that last one gave it away, @andreizm Should I be on the lookout for some California Love?

    Thanks for the fun entries fellas and ladies... Made me laugh :slight_smile: The winner of the Quick and EZ BIF was @SRBush1974 and ironically, I think he may have been the last entry. That's the fun part about having your co-workers pull a name out of a box. People on Slack got their name in twice so maybe that tipped him over the edge?! Anyway, send me your address and the Ohio cans will go out today.

    Can's wait!

    Hint#22 - I am shipping to a new Newbie and the box is heading out today. Heading South.

    Puh-lease. I sent out 4 the last two days and sending out at least 3 more this week. We're doing just fine up here.

    Technically they never said these OH boxes contained any beer. Could be eBay/Etsy arts & crafts. Or empties.
