    I did some more shopping today for my target today.
    It was like Christmas shopping. Only better.
    And I hardly bought anything for myself.

    I LOVE coconut - used to drink a quart of pineapple coconut juice a night when I worked second shift, before I knew what it was doing to my arteries. The only brews I've had from Munster were Pinkus stuff I got in Switzerland. I haven't really been playing the hint game but I've been hoping you had me because I need some ticks from TN and IN. And if so, please remember the initial 66 oz goal 'cause I don't have a porch and gotta lift (with my legs) everything from ground level. Cheers!

    You bring up a good point. Are we liable for injuries or porch damage to our targets?:wink:

    Nope. We all knew, when we signed up for this mission, that not all porches and tables would be coming back. They give so we may toast! Cheers!

    I'll try to figure out how to post pics, but let it be heard that @WesMantooth sent me soo many OHIO wonders that I feel like I got a walking tour ( @WesMantooth and I holding hands skipping from brewery to brewery) of some of OHIO's finest. From Columbus, to Madtree, to Great Lakes, to The Brew Kettle, to Thirsty Dog, to Jackie O's (Yes!!! Dark Apparition), to Willoughby Brewing (Hot Damn!!! Peanut Butter Cup).
    Oh, and a trip north to MI for some Dark Horse just to show me he can actually break away from all of the GREAT OHIO offerings.

    ALL ARE NEW FOR ME!!! (minus 1 from Great Lakes) Some Primo ones. Wulver Wee Heavy (BBA). Dark Apparition I have really wanted to try for a while now. So many to mention. But I WILL in NBS.

    Thanks a million @WesMantooth !!! You are not just a BA(dvocate) you're a Beer Ambassador!!!

    PS. Awesome Great Lakes bottle opener too.

    Beer Ambassador... I am totally going to use that. Probably with my wife first. "Why are you mailing beer again?" Because, I am the Ambassador. It is my duty.
    I definitely wanted to represent the Buckeye state, and the only brewery less than a 50 minute drive from me is not one to do it with. So, I went with the big players. It helps that you are on the other side of the country. Especially with your crazy beer ratings number. If we did this thing about 3 weeks from now, you would have pulled a Fat Heads Hop Ju Ju out of that hat. Blame @beertunes :stuck_out_tongue:

    Seriously though. This was a lot of fun. The "extras" part of trading is my favorite, and this was all extras. I felt like a mad scientist, or a professional stalker. Wait... That doesn't sound good. Thanks again @beertunes

    Edit: I must have missed one on your list, or grabbed the wrong bottle from my fridge (you had a dedicated shelf in the beer fridge for a few weeks too and I only drank 1). Which GL did you have already? Also, you should fly in here and do that hand in hand brewery hop you described. We may want to drive instead of skip though. Depneds which part of Columbus we are in though:grinning:

    Got a couple from my box for today, plus one a buddy gave me last night. And, I split a 750 that was in my box with a friend a few nights ago, so I'll be adding that one as well.

    Damn, that dusty undead treat sounds like an over the top win for the target! Guess I'll have to wiki "first continental congress."

    A box has arrived in Spokane and is on a UPS truck for delivery. Fortunately I've taken precautions. I removed the porch of my building and replaced it with a concrete stoop. However, this may have just made it more likely that the whole block will be pulled down in one piece!

    If this happens, it's @Ozzylizard's fault!

    I have it on good authority (UPS.com) that yours won't be the only NBS BIF box delivered in the state of Washington today. :wink:
