Inaugural Rookie BIF Hints and Hauls Thread

Hint #4: I'm shipping to a state that was one of the Thirteen Colonies

Content Hint: At least one beer currently in your wants list will be included

 

Hint 8: target's state was one of the 13 colonies
hint 9: in terms of how long you've been on BA, it seems like you're the youngest for this BIF, but I may be wrong on that one.

Content Hint - You'll probably be getting at least half the box filled with some higher ABV stouts/porters/barleywines. One of which may be from my cellar with a few good years of age on it. The rest should be some fresh hops

 

Hint #5: your state is tied (with three other states) for the second most heavily represented state in BIF

 

Hint #3: Targets username contains at least 1 character more than once.

 

Hint #6: my targets home state is east of my home state

 

Last Hint: The expected delivery for my target is today

 

Hint 1: I’m shipping west, which should help no one since I live on Long Island.
Hint 2: target’s state has teams in all four major sports.
Hint 3: target’s city is the same as the last name of a semi-prominent singer from the 80s.
Hint 4: my target has been a member longer than me, has done more good things for the site than I have, yet his beer karma lags far behind mine, proving once again that karma is a bitch.

 

A recap and a new hint for mine:

1. Shipping West
2. Zero beer reviews on BA.
3. Their state was admitted to the union prior to the start of the Civil War.
4. A baseball movie is based in my target's state.
5. Someone from your state has main evented a Wrestlemania in the last 10 years.

 

To my target: I apologize I was not near a computer yesterday so I was unable to post any hints for you. I will post hints 4 and 5 today and maybe more later.

Hint #1: Shipping North
Hint #2: you have more trades listed on BA than me.
Hint #3: Your state was not list as one of the top 10 most check-ins of 2017 on Untappd, however, you border states that are on that list.
Hint #4: I have now posted more hints than you have for your target.
Hint #5: I have visited your state multiple times for football (NFL) and baseball games (college) and I have shipped beer to your state in a previous BIF I participated in.

 

Hint #1: Shipping East
Hint #2: No sours for you!
Hint #3: I joined BA before you
Hint #4: Shipping to a state that has more than one person in this BIF

 

One bottle of BA Darkness for you coming up, target!

Hint #1! Your avatar is not a human!
Hint #2! I have approximately fifteen times the completed trades you do in the last ~two months!
Hint #3! We share a recent trading partner!
Hint #4! Your state may be quite small, but it is more populous than my own state!
Hint #5! Nine Inch Nails' drummer (circa 89-97) was born on the day that you joined Beer Advocate (though not in that year)!
Hint #6! You are not the only participant from your state in this BIF!

 

My original guess still qualifies. But I'm not counting it as one of the four pairings I'm sure I've figured out.

 

Hint 4: as a big boxing fan, a Pound 4 Pound great is from your state

 

Going through the thread, with the hints provided, I have it down to six of you. This is the world's most infuriating game of Guess Who.

 

Hint #7: My target joined BA before I did

 

Hint 1: I’m shipping west, which should help no one since I live on Long Island.
Hint 2: target’s state has teams in all four major sports.
Hint 3: target’s city is the same as the last name of a semi-prominent singer from the 80s.
Hint 4: my target has been a member longer than me, has done more good things for the site than I have, yet his beer karma lags far behind mine, proving once again that karma is a bitch.
Hint 5: target’s state is the home of a fictional barber shop quartet from a cult classic 90s movie.

 

Hint 1: target's state touches a large body of water
Hint 2: target's username is longer than mine
Hint 3: you are not the only BA participating from your state
Hint 4: according to untappd, you have only had beers from 2 breweries in Michigan. This will change.

Content hint:

 

This cracks me up. "Honey, I swear I'm only on Beer Advocate for the puzzles!".

*Looks up @CheChe 's previous hints*



I'm calling you out @CheChe !

 

I'm confident I know who my sender is, but that's based off of only 3 hints...so I could be wrong. I'll just patiently wait for further hints.
