    Lloyd Christmas there above had em mixed up. You’re sending beer to someone who has been to Australia?

    ...from the Archives of Oblivion re: BIF #15:

    Burke-Gilman Brewing Co. -- Ma Che Cos'é
    Italian pilsner (a gently dry-hopped pilsner with German malt and Italian-inspired technique)
    ABV: 5.6%; pouring temperature: 50.0℉; canning info: 04/26/22
    Source: @snaotheus (BIF #15 LIF)

    [​IMG]

    3.58/5 rDev +4.4%
    look: 3.75 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

    Clear, amber colored body; lively carbonation; nice head, white and fluffy. Light esters and malt grain aroma. Gentle grain flavor, light bread; moderate to bold hop bitterness. Medium-light body; light coarseness on the palate; low-key dryness throughout.

    A decent and thirst quenching pilsner.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    ...I remember bicycle riding the Burke-Gilman trail back in 2003 while stationed at (then) McChord AFB during my final year of active duty...this would have been the perfect sport's beverage back in the day...:grin:

    ...and BIF #16 clue #B53x: box numero something or other pretty much packed except for a food item of some sort...it's still not clear, but likely ultimately arriving west of the Canadian River (or is that just the beer fogging my sense of direction...???)...I suppose it's always possible I could hand-deliver the first box in person as I journey eastward later this month...

    That last statement makes me want to keep one hell of an eye on you. Not ready to call out, but suspicious.

    It would be fairly easy to hop over my way on the way to cheese land, depending on how you go.

    Probably paranoid, maybe psychotic. Who knows.

    ...well, Omaha is my first stop, Amana Colonies (Millstream Brewing Co.) and slightly beyond on my 2nd day...I am bringing my bicycle as I have good memories of bicycling the Root River and Willard Munger trails in the past and (likely) will do so again (sooner or later)...

    ...too much math...I'm grabbing another beer...although there seems to be a factor of 10 missing in this equation and I may have something figured out here...maybe two more beers to put my mind in focus...:sunglasses:

    ...ah, now I believe I have @BigIronH and his last clue figured out -- very clever...math can be very helpful when you don't read too much into the equations...0^10 = Nothing at All

    Home now, and I've opened the package that @WunderLlama so kindly sent to me.

    Imgur is acting up a bit, so I hope this works:

    Damn! Damn, there's one from Rhode Island, one of my last 3 states! I'm happy and good to see some Trillium, and other beers I've been wanting to try.

    I am so greatful for these, and some I will be sharing with friends. Thank you so much!

    Hints for BIF #16

    As Summer plummets into Fall, shenanigans begin.
    With targets across the Divide, tensions mount,
    relax, it’s only beer, so pop some generic Meprin.

    All hints will be honest, I swear by Ma’at
    Though puzzling they may be,
    I promise to ship no beer with add juck’d meat.

    Hint the first of at least three:
    Thus far our relationship has been one-way
    Although I shipped to your state before thee.

    Thing is, by style, Butt Wiper is pretty much average, so it got a 3.
