    Everything besides the IPAs I will be shipping is now bubble wrapped. I'll be boxing things up in the next couple days (in all likelihood, two to three boxes worth) and shipping out on Monday. My target is participating in another BIF with me (actually, he's one of my final 8 possibilities for my sender in that BIF), and the first haul recently landed. It was sent from another BA in his state.

    I had a hunch it was you for a while. Don't worry about not hitting more wants; everything you sent is either a want, something I have had and really enjoyed, or something that sounds awesome. Cheers!

    Just got back from South America, and I've narrowed my sender down to 3 people, all who have not posted much in this thread. Hopefully will get some hints or a shipment soon :slight_smile:

    Boxes are packed up and ready to go tomorrow. Two boxes at a total of 49lbs, with stats below

    Volume: 374.3oz (273.4 barrel aged)
    Average Score: 4.1 (4.19 barrel aged)
    Volume Weighted Avg. Score: 4.13 (4.20 barrel aged)

    Hopefully the first word in my target's name doesn't describe his mood at being one of the last to receive a box.

    He's getting almost fifty pounds of beer, he better not be as his name describes. I think his (perceived on my part) patience with the home team's last two seasons shows that he will be patient in waiting for the box, too!

    Yeah I feel like that is a very under the radar beer for how good it is. I'm wishing I would have bought more of them when I saw it.

    Yup. That was in there as well. I'm not sure how much use I will have for it during a Michigan winter but will certainly pull it out this summer. Thanks again.
