    I've been slow to start and will proceed incrementally as I am hoping to add a beer that is not available yet, but is scheduled for a January release.
    Anyway...
    Hint #1 - My beer will be shipped eastward.

    One request, and maybe it was presented elsewhere and/or earlier, but do we have a list of the participants of NBS BIF #1?

    Info #5: beers are packaged. Fairly large amount of bubble wrap used, hope it's enough. Will send out sometime next week, so...

    Hint #8: if you rated more beers then me, I am not helping you rate more - I gotta catch you!! :wink:

    Dogfish Head is listed in two different ways and I have beers in both. Does that count as 1 or 2 breweries?

    Sweet, new hint blood has entered the fray. Maybe I'm your target, I would love some sweet MN beers sent my way.

    Hint #15 - Made a trip down to Lancaster today and picked up some beer from Spring House brewing, I'm almost 100% sure my target has never had one of their beers.

    Yikes! I guess I have reviewed beers from 3 Delaware breweries (the Iron Hill was quite awhile ago). I guess I'm still in. :slight_smile:

    Whoa! Way behind on hints (I suspect that pesky holiday season we're just emerging from might have something to do with that!
    Hint # 4 - My target is near the eastern seaboard, but is south of the Baseball Hall of Fame.
