CANBIF, fall 2017.

My box is coming together. I should be able to hit most of my target’s style preferences, and so far, it looks like everything will be new. I am planning to hit a brand new brewery tomorrow and hope the beer is as good as early reviews suggest. Should have the box in the mail next week.

 

No pumpkin beers for me either please!. Lol!

 

Thought I forgot something--thanks @dabeerbuddha!

No pumpkin beers and also no smoked beers (please, please, PLEASE)!

Thank you kindly!

 

Box is near complete, just putting the final items together. As it sits my target is set to receive a box loaded with 12+ beers in all shapes and sizes, most you'll like. One you wouldn't if I told you what it was, but likely would if you try it without looking it up. And one item that is not beer... but that I am confident you will enjoy based on the info i could find about you! Final weight TBD but be sure that the mailman won't enjoy lifting it! Box will be shipped tomorrow if I can acquire the final items today, but for sure early next week!

And to my sender, I also don't enjoy pumpkin beers, have yet to find one I liked, and have stopped trying. But hey, I'll try anything once.

 

Is liking pumpkin beer really a thing?

 

All pumpkin beers will be returned to sender at his expense, if that is possible.

 

As today is last day of free shipping under 11 lbs, I sent 5 gems to my target to get there early, as I told Electros. The second box will be up and ready in another week, and includes some 750 ml.

 

Good news for you. So popular they extended it.

Glad to be back in after missing the last 2 rounds.

Hints!

To my Target:
- I am shipping to the West this round.
- You have not posted any hints yet.
- You are active on Untappd, your wish list there is relatively small with harder to find brews but I do already have 1 for you from your WL.
- You LOVE Pumpkin Beers...just kidding, you don't care for them.
- And my last hint for now, if you have Instagram check out my account run_addiction for an idea of some of the brews you are going to receive.

To My Sender:
- I'm easy, you won't beable to disappoint me, unless you send me a 12 pack of Bud Light. Heck, I even like some Pumpkin Beers.
- My preference is Pale Ales, IPA's, Stouts, anything Barrel Aged.
- Not really into Pilsners, Lagers and Smoked Beers but willing to give them a shot if you feel they are worthy of trying.
- I really enjoy trying anything not available in Ontario or Western NY state.

 

My box is also almost completed, I just need to pick up a few more items. It seems as though my target has had very little from my province, so I aim to rectify that.

Also for my sender, I love cider and ice cider as well! My target will be getting a couple great BC ciders.

 

picked up a few last bottles today and packed up the box. hoping to be able to ship out tomorrow. good chunk are from the seattle area as im down there quite often these days and I figure its close enough to be local! Box will be heading east to a province i've sent a few canbifs to in the past.

 

we are talking about 2.4 2.5 litres wrapped

 

Box is out for delivery in the biggest city in the target"s province! That hopefully means my target will be quaffing a carefully hand curated selection of new to them brews this weekend! Do you know who you are?

 

Also, if you aren't active on BA, please post where you are listing wants, haves, etc. (e.g. Untappd as who?)

 

My styro shipper finally came in and I have a bunch of local brews picked out for my target. Heading stateside this weekend and hope to bring back goodies to top off the rest of the box. Aiming to ship early next week!

 

I finished shopping today, I’ll be packing up some boxes over the weekend and hopefully shipping on Monday. Happy to find fresh examples of everything that I wanted to include. And crowlers are allowing me to send a couple things that were not possible in the past. Woohoo!

 

To my western target:

I just dropped off a 32lb monster off at the post office! You know it’s a good one when the post office worker has to call the mailman to bring a hand cart! You should see your box on the 15th.

Final hint: my favorite sports team is playing close to you in the next month or so.
