    Final preparations being made on my target's boxes. Final clues to be posted shortly.

    On the other hand, I'm still at double digit possible senders.

    Hint 1: Newgrass Brewing Co.
    Hint 2: The Olde Mecklenburg Brewery
    Hint 3: Boojum Brewery
    Hint 4: NoDa Brewing
    Hint 5: The Dingo Dog Brewery
    Hint 6: Ecusta Brewery
    Hint 7: Wooden Robot Brewery
    Hint 8: Fonta Flora Brewery
    Hint 9: Blowing Rock Brewing Company
    Hint 10: Gibbs Hundred Brewing Co.
    Hint 11: Raleigh Brewing Company

    Hint 15: Olde Hickory Brewery
    Hint 16: Red Oak Brewery
    Hint 17: Wicked Weed Brewing
    Hint 18: Waterline Brewing Co.
    Hint 19: Salud Cerveceria
    Hint 20: Duck Rabbit Craft Brewery
    Hint 21: Legion Brewing


    Decoder Hint 1: These are all meaningless... for now
    Decoder Hint 2: The key is a number
    Decoder Hint 3: Ignore spaces
    Final Decoder Hint: Without this number, your package wouldn't find its way to you.

    Content Hint/Update/Apology: Heist decided not to have a can release before your box went out, so no super fresh Heist cans.... also, they decided not to order Crowlers and lids.... so no fresh Heist crowlers either.... but that's alright, you're getting some equally as good crowlers in their place :wink:

    Dear Target, you should now have everything necessary to figure out who you are, but either way your boxes are landing on Wednesday (hopefully).

    @azuelke I wasn't strong enough to tackle a second bottle last night. But tonight, I am up for round 2.

    Central Waters cap, another 22oz er. Decided to proper glassware this bad boy. And this boy is bad! Thick, smooth, just absolutely amazing. I am really really enjoying whatever this is.

    I'll take a peek at what this is after I drink this glass or so. But daaaamn it is good.

    To add some notes, this seems very well balanced. Barrel notes come through nice and well integrated. I can tell it's boozy but it is super well hidden. Not getting a ton of oxidation so I'm not sure if it is aged. Tastes just really well put together. Honestly Eighteen was great last night but I think this is better. If just barely. I am super glad I wimped out on drinking this last night. I would have been wrecked.

    Goddamn @azuelke you brought the heat! I suspected it might be this but I didn't think you'd send one. Thank you so much!

    Hint #2: Will not be shipping to one of the original 13 colonies of America.

    Hint #3: shipping to a state that is next to a large body of water

    Hint# 4: Shipping to a fellow beer lover who lives in a state that has an " i " in its name.

    Hint# 5: Apparently in your state it is illegal to wave a burning torch around in the air... What are you going to do when Frankenstein visits?

    Will be shipping your stuff out this week, perhaps one or two more hints if you still havent figured me out after hint 5.

    For those who are not friends with Dick on untappd, I said that the "feeling lucky" on the wrap was a useless hint for him, which I didn't expect him to figure out. I was lucky enough to be selected in the Black Gold lottery, hence the hint. Hope it was everything you could have imagined.

    Maybe? We'll see what the future holds.
