    Hint#1: shipping South
    Hint #2: state borders body of water
    Hint #3: My receiver's state has one of the 20 busiest airports in the USA

    On a side note... when the heck is Chicago going to get FBS?! I mean, we're practically next to Founders, but I still haven't seen a drop of the stuff near me...

    But I did find a nice BA barleywine from a local Chicago brewer that I'll be wrapping up for my target's box...

    I think beer will enhance the medicine and cure you faster. If not, at least you can still enjoy the beer.

    I just purchased one of these said barleywines myself. Anxious to try it and if I can find another bottle, it will be making its way into my targets box.

    @Ncpogs--have you seen FBS around yet? I keep hearing everyone mention picking up a four pack or two, and I'm starting to get really jealous...

    Alright, got some catching up to do. Was watching The Fault in Our Stars with the lady. It was good (and quite sad), but Silver Lining's Playbook was still the best movie I've seen this week, and in a while.

    Anyway, I'm ready for FBS too. Unfortunately, Houston won't see it for God knows how long. However, a certain local, amazing IPA releases here in bottles (finally) next week.

    Hint #Texas: My target will be receiving a bottle of said IPA.

    Looks like I won't be receiving a box of amazing Tired Hands growlers from Kevin.

    No pressure or anything :wink:.

    Hint #1: Shipping North
    Hint #2: My target has more beers rated then I, but less wants!
    Hint #3: My targets state borders an ocean.
    Hint #4: My target has more then 1 but less then 15 trades completed

    Really hope my targets wants are updated, cause if they are I can hit a few of them for you!

    Sounds good man, but really I'm not in any hurry. More likely we'll be working something out somewhere around your 3rd trip from now. Also, if there's any other good FL beer, I'm all ears; CCB and Peg's/Cycle are just the ones I know about.

    Ooooo might this be the one from a socialist brewer whose name is an item only magicians choose to wear? I'm sitting on a bottle of that and am really looking forward to a good chance to open it.

    There's going to be a box heading from me to TX in the generally near future, and while that one won't go to you, perhaps the recipient will share (I just can't remember where exactly in TX he is). If I find out he's not in your neck of the woods, I'm sure a growler will find its way to someone in HOU pretty soon.

    @mbmiche try Foremost Liquors in Arlington Heights - (847)749-3821, may want to call first but they should have it. And I never got back to you, but I live in Lemont and work in Downers (not too far from Palatine to meet some time for a beer)

    Hint #1 (old) - shipping to a state that borders water
    Hint #2 (old) - shipping to a state that does not begin with a vowel

    Hint #3 (new) - my target's state is not the name of a Monopoly property
    Hint #4 (new) - while there are two senders in this BIF who share a first name with their target, I am not one of them.

    Hint 1: shipping north
    Hint 2: my target's state borders a body of water
    Hint 3: my target's state was one of the original 13 colonies.

    If my target likes this post I'll throw one or two local sours in. :slight_smile:

    Should I wait until after the brand new brewery up the road opens on 10/11 to ship? They are supposed to be canning right out of the gate...

    I can't figure this one out lol, and now I'm curious to know if we're all talking about the same beer

    My hints will probably be sporadic the rest of the week and weekend due to GABF. I'll probably try and post something, but no idea if it'll be coherent.

    Hint #4: I'm shipping in a generally northwardly direction.
