TLNBIFF Hints and Hauls

Here are the pics from my awesome box!









Thanks again Eric!

 

186 miles, 2 breweries, 2 samplers, a parking ticket and target #1 is set to go.
Packing tomorrow, shipping Monday.

 

Both of my targets will be receiving stuff from their wants list as well as local distro. Both targets will be getting religiously named beers. One target will be getting a beer synonymous with a deep fissure in the earth, the other will be getting a beer associated with a latus rectum and a beer with a potential Hippie name. Box one headed to the north east of me will have two cork and cage bottles in the 180oz of goodies. Box two will also be headed north east of me, but not as far. Box two will also have two cork and cage bottles to fill the 166oz of goodies. Both boxes will be departing early next week. I must check the previous posts to be sure my targets will be home. There have been a lot of posts regarding vacation. Speaking of which, I will be also on vacation from the 19th-27th of July for my second shipper's info.

One of my targets has been very active in the posts of this thread so far. My other target has posted once (to my knowledge, math was not my strong subject).

 

Damn on the parking ticket! Kinda makes you wanna drink

 

Good thing I checked in on the thread before the apartment office closed. I was too busy extending the celebration of America yesterday. Drawback to living in an apartment: They don't deliver packages to you door, so I will need to see the chiropractor this week. Benefit: They keep you beer in the nicely air conditioned office when you don't pick it up.

Now for the ****:


Very nicely packed in to a 12 bottle shipper with strategically placed Anti Hero bombs.

3X Revolution Anti Hero (tried this once, and glad to have more than one to drink/share)
Marilimelaw Ninja - Collab between Tired Hands and Pipeworks (yes please!)
Revolution Crystal Hero (sounds delicious)
Pipeworks Centennial Ninja (I'm a sucker for single hops)
New Glarus Berliner Weiss (didn't get a chance to pick any up on my recent Milwaukee trip)
Spiteful Brewing - Malevolence (never had it, but sounds good)
Pipeworks Blood of the Unicorn (Tried it once, and really looking forward to having it again)
Pipeworks Something Hoppy This Way Comes (I love hops)
New Holland Dragon's Milk (barrel aged, yep)
Pipeworks Majestic (citrusy IPA, can't wait)
Three Floyds Apocalypse Cow (just had brought one to a bottle share, and it was well accepted)
New Glarus Serendipity (I love this beer)
Pipeworks Jones Dog (Chocolate Lacto Stout, this should be good)

Thank you to bcm75 for putting together a great box. Looking forward to everybody else getting bombed like me.

 

Luckily the parking ticket comes out of the stupidity budget, not the beer budget.

 

If it all fits in the box, target 1 is looking at 172 oz of mostly local goodness with an average rating north of 90. It seems like some of my locals don't get the love they deserve.
Included is 64 oz of peanut buttery goodness, a couple of wants, a couple of style/brewery wants, some stuff that I threw in because they might as well be wants, and a can with a cool pull top.
Beginning it's nearly 600 mile journey on Monday.

 

Hint 1: My targets will be getting a beer that's name puns on a Jock Jam.
Hint 2: It would take two and a half weeks to walk to either of my targets. But probably a little longer because of the sled full of beer I'd be pulling.
Hint 3: One, if not both, of my targets did not give their home addresses for shipping. It's hard to tell on Google Earth for one target.
Hint 4: Apologies in advance to both targets for not being to hit more than 2 or 3 exact wants , but a lot of similar styles and fine-ass locals are coming their way! These include 2 BA brews each and many beers the Bros thought were better than the masses did.

 

Looks like mborden's shipment dropped on my porch last night, not this morning. Can't believe I didn't notice the damage leaving for work this morning. Anyways, here's the haul...

Brooklyn Local 1
Brooklyn Local 2
Dogfish Head 120 Minute
Firestone Parabola
Firestone §ucaba
Dogfish Head World Wide Stout
Middle Ages Wailing Wench
Ithaca Flower Power (x2)
Middle Ages X
Sixpoint Resin (x2)
Ommegang Biere de Mars
and a note mentioning some future Heady.

A great box. Most of them are new to me, so can't wait to share them with a few other BAs here in Indy. Thanks again Mike. Let me know if I can help you track down anything in my local distro. Cheers.

 

Glad it got there safely, enjoy! Ironically, now that Revolution is pushing more beer into Ohio, Anti-Hero is becoming more difficult to find. My normal store was totally tapped out today! So you currently have more on hand than I do.

 

Been too busy w/ work this weekend to watch that till now. Hahaha...I like it. I'm not going to lie, I may start saying it when I'm pissed. I steal things like that.

 

Heading to Dark Horse as we speak, my friends. Well see what goodies they have for my targets.

 

Awesome man, glad you liked it! Your wants list was large and whitish so I tried to stalk your posts and hads to get an idea of what you might enjoy from my area. Cheers!

 

Whitish. Hahaha

 

I was just able to land a Growler of a popular TG brew. Now to decide which target gets it.

 

Sooooo, I usually do not try to lead people astray in a BIFFFFFFFF, but my boxes will have to be altered. I have this bad habit of needing to stop at a brewery when it is on the way to anywhere I may be going. I happened to stop at Lost Abbey today and picked up some small format cork and cage items to round out my boxes. I will be hitting a few wants with those newly acquired items. So unfortunately for the FedEx driver, and your porches, the boxes will be pumped up a bit. Sorry, I hope this in not an inconvenience. Oh and one of the boxes has been coordinated with my shipping partner, and that said porch is in store for a box gang bang!

 

Is this now the third post in this thread for one of your targets?

 

Wonder if it is the growler that I have purchased 5 times in the last week?

 

So I should call you for some gopickitupformebro's?

 

Went camping in WI last weekend and Daves Brewfarm this weekend. My dad is a courier and heads to Hudson often as well.
