    I'm all set except for picking up one of my targets wants straight from the tap next Friday. Should ship out soon after that.

    Just of couple of beers left to pick up and my target's box will be ready. The sweater my target receives should "brighten" their day...

    The box will be going to a place that shares its name with a class of ballistic missile submarines, which was comprised of 9 boats, many named after US Presidents.

    My box has just landed at a small, delicious sounding part of the Empire State.My target is also a hockey fan apparently.

    I had only left for about 30 minutes!!! Why didn't you let me know you were stopping by?????? The Boxes were AWESOME!!! However, I must stay the sweater really isn't "ugly" if you ask me.

    Yea sorry about the lack of notice and just 'mildly ugly' sweater. I got to NH for a holiday get together with my wife's family. Had a family emergency this afternoon and had to drive all the way back to south jersey immediately. I didn't have time to chance to pick up the sweater I originally intended and a couple beers from up here. Hope you like what you got. The Blasphemy is from 2011 so it's about due for drinking! Cheers!

    I really hope your family emergency isn't horrible. I would have loved to got the beer and split a bottle with you. Thanks again for the great beers. I have already consumed 3 of them. The Rude Elf, Mint Chocolate Stout and Oaked Big Hoppy Monster are awesome!

    Planning on shipping next week. Tried to keep it semi-local, but since my target and I have some overlapping distro, I wound up raiding the cellar for some wants. Hope my target has been keeping an eye on this thread, they've been less than active when it comes to posting.

    I'll second the overlapping distribution call. Luckily I hail from Michigan and was able to round up some wants from there as well as others

    Box is packaged up and will be dropped off at FedEx tomorrow morning. Five wants were hit (almost all pretty local), and a near-indestructible box should arrive in a couple days to someone who posted on this page.

    New guy here. Looks like I already have over 100 ounces of beer off of my targets wants list in my cellar. Now I have to talk the wife into shopping for a glorious sweater. Thrift store here we come!

    Hint #1 My target and I have different area codes and zip codes.

    It is possible that my target will be recieving a homebrewed 10-10.5% spiced apple cider in his box. Hopefully it will be ready by the end of the shipping window!

    Why did I already eliminate you as a possibility? Can you please take back whatever hint it was that prompted me to do so?

    Hint #2: The box I send will cross more than one state line but less than 20 state lines to reach my target.

    Also, my target hasn't posted much in this thread.:slight_frown:
