The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

So @jawas decided to drop a nice little surprise porch bomb on me tonight, completely unrelated to this BIF... I guess he figured out that I loved me some Founders and that Founders is one of the few major breweries we don't get distro for in Colorado. So he went and did this...



Founders IS x2 (one of my fav RIS)
Founders Curmudgeon x2 (love this Old ale)
Founders BS (one of my favorites period!)
Founders Rubaeus x2 (mmmmmm, raspberries)
Fegley's Brewworks BB Insidious (never heard of em, but I love me a BA stout!!)

Thanks @jawas for this sweet box!

 

On the Skid Row hint I googled the other hints and was pretty sure it was me but I couldn't figure out how Josie and the ***** Cats fit in... came back today and saw the Under the Sea and the other 2 hints I hadn't seen and that pretty much sealed it

 

Woah!

 

I usually do not do this but I am really happy I completed this Marathon. Perfect conditions made it a great race!

My reward for doing this was some Revolution Unsessionable. Quite good but not to my target's liking if I paid attention.

 

Woo hoo! Congrats dude! Your first? I did Chicago in 03 or so I think. Great race. Great city.

 

Just popped the cork on this Consecration (amazing, thanks again) that @Kramerbarthomer sent me on Sixterhood Trip #4 and am packing the box for Trip #5. Since the target likes IPA's, I searched high and low for some freshies today. Couldn't find anything I was happy with, so I'm glad you like you like stouts. Besides a lowly 86 from a certain popular TX brewery, the box has ratings of 100, 100, 93, 92, & 91. Going out tomorrow to a state that as of today has rained or has rain in the forecast this week.

And don't worry Locals Target, I have not forgotten about you. I've been shopping a little here and there, pulling out from my stash a little too. If you get stressed about who your sender is, just go relax at the body of water that you live very near to.

 

Thanks. No, I have run a few already and ran Chicago last year but, this year, the conditions were perfect for a fast race. Can't wait for next year!

 

I'm catching up late on this, but the problem I see with this is that a lot of us have pretty limited good can availability. And the problem with growlers is aging. Plus for the first time I joined another BIF (and made my first trade today) so I am sort of overwhelmed already.

 

OK, so this is subject to change in either direction depending on how stuff fits in the boxes I'm planning (if I have to add or remove a couple of beers I will), but as of right now I am shocked to discover I've got 381 ounces. Average BA rating of 4.10 and 91% (although a couple of the beers don't have many ratings). I hope to finish packing tonight and ship in the morning, I'm guessing a Thursday arrival date but will confirm tomorrow.

 

How about Buffy and Jodie for us old timers, as a clue?

 

I actually knew who @kgncfl was sending to, and when I was trying to think of other Sebastians, I thought of Mr. French!!!

 

I am down to 4 possible senders. Two of you have been pretty vague, like myself. Two of you need to post some clues. OK target, I have a few of your wants packed up. I am also waiting for the cans to ripen on the Jai Alai tree in my back yard. I hope to send next week. I am sending to a state that starts with a vowel. Cheers

 

Nah, I did and it made no sense to me...

 

I just looked at who my my last 4 possible senders are and I am really psyched. Cannot go wrong with locals from CA, OH and MN.

 

I'm hoping @raulazzer awakens from his BA slumber soon to confirm that he's my sender....otherwise I apparently have no sender...

 

I am in the same boat here. I just wrote off 2 potential senders today. I have one prime suspect but the hints were vague enough that I may be completely wrong!
I still can't believe the hints of @kgncfl . I wish I were so creative.

 

Family Affair was one on my list along with Sebastian Coe.

 

If my sender were to want to wait until the latter part of next week (10/20), that would be cool with me. Looks like a work trip sprang up next week. If not, I'm sure my mother (who is house sitting) would love a box of beer.....

 

Hit as many wants as possible....IMO

 

Clearly I need some sleep. Sender, please disregard my statement about waiting to ship as I am struggling to read a calendar, ha. It's been a loonngg day.
