NBS BIF #16 Hints and Hauls: Sweet Sixteen - Teenage Lust Tastes Like Creamed Corn and Rolling Rock

This is it. THIS is IT. THIS IS IT!!!

We're live, BIFers!!!!! Let's get this show on the road!

Rules Reminders

Official Share Date: November 11-13 weekend.
(Please ensure at least one box, preferably including a Mystery Beer, arrives no later than Thursday, November 10th.)
You should plan to drink at least one of the beers (preferably a Mystery Beer) on the official share date, unless otherwise communicated. You can start drinking your new beers as soon as they arrive, but save some for the NBW thread.

We've got a full month for shenanigans, BIFers!

Minimum Contents: 96 ounces of beer, at least 1 wrapped/disguised Mystery Beer (some of us send several, but that's optional), at least one local food item (or food-adjacent, such as coffee or spices), and at least one item of Breweriana (swag; glassware, a T-shirt, stickers, coasters, pins, bottle openers - something, preferably local to you, and/or related to the beer you send)
(Do not worry about trying to keep up with some of the maniacs in this BIF. The minimum is the minimum, and every person here is perfectly OK with receiving exactly that. If that's all you can, or even want to, send, that's fine! Similarly, ninja boxes are never expected (it's right there in the name), and absolutely not required. Send what you want to send. )
Participation: You must participate in this thread with at least 2 hints per week (until your target discerns their identity). More are certainly welcome. The helpfulness of your clues is entirely up to you.

Etiquette: What follows are not necessarily hard rules, but good ideas to follow.
*Hint Lies. Completely allowed. I consider it good form to at some point help your target out, though, so if you drop one or more false clues, at least consider giving your target a chance to figure out which clues are false, and which clues are true. That's up to you, though.
*Misdirection. Actively encouraged! (As opposed to outright lies.)
*Official Call Outs. If someone officially calls you out as their sender, the honorable thing to do is to respond that they are correct - or incorrect, as the case may be.
*Recognition. There is zero expectation that all of the beers you receive will be enjoyed on the weekend and reviewed in the NBW thread. You will likely receive simply too much, and many of the beers are of the type that you will want to enjoy as fresh as possible. Do so! Drink a beer the day you receive your (first?) box! However, if you post the beer in WBAYDN? (or Untappd), it's polite to thank your sender with a tag.
*Reviews. The entire purpose of this BIF is to drive participation in the NBW thread. It has long since become its own thing, but that purpose remains. Please review your beers in NBW (or here).
*HAVE FUN. Please try to play the game and guess your sender. Have fun with your target! If you are going to be away from the thread for a while, please let us know.

LET'S. GO.

Oh: I'm shipping West. Unless I'm shipping South. Or both. Or in a stunning twist, perhaps I'm shipping East around the world.
