    Hint #5: my target has NOT posted in this thread.

    Update: I have the 2 wants and another new Oregon brew to complete the min. ounces. With a few extras, I hope my target is as excited getting this package as i am to ship it. Final oz count and pic tomorrow. And to my target: I'll BM you the tracking number Monday :slight_smile:

    Tracking numbers do not go to targets, they come to me. If you email the target, then it kind of ruins the surprise. Please make sure that you include your name on the box, so they know who the box came from (even though I forgot to do it).

    The person who got the box said that it landed on his doorstep as he was heading out of town, will post haul today/tomorrow.

    Bells - Hopslam
    Dogfish Head - 120 minute IPA

    Super stoked on the box! 3 of them I cant get here (Lolita, Friek, Hopslam), 2 of them I have seen, but have never tried (Oude Geuze, Oude Tart), and the 120 Minute is always a want, as its a favorite of mine (and not so easy to come by in these parts). Im really excited to try the Friek!

    Thank you, sir :grinning:

    We salute our fallen soliders... LOL I actually drink that beer quite frequently, so I know the feeling. I like it better than the Tilquin, even though Tilquin is a blend of 3F and Cantillon. Makes no sense...
