    Mini weather rant: I get that it's winter and I live in Michigan but it's not The Yukon. This cold is getting ridiculous. Two of you fine gentlemen have boxes filled with delicious beer waiting to send to me and I have a box all set to send out but the weather is not allowing it. I have even removed the beer from my garage fridge because they water bottles started to freeze. It's not cool when Mother Nature messes with my beer. That is all

    I have no clue what to send, but I have a couple ideas. My target's wants are tough. Might end up just making a killer locals box

    Also target you have on your wants a certain beer that is needed to be fresh so I will probably send an early box so you can have those fresh, sorry if this throws a wrench in the circle jerk

    Beer courtesy @treznor , glass was the first thing I saw as I am opening a box from a trade. Can anyone guess who the glass is from? Hint: this guy thought our trade was a full BIF round. Pron tonight, after I ice my back.

    I'm in the same boat. Don't update often, those are mostly permawants, and favorite styles

    That's the boat I'm in. And quite frankly that's what I enjoy receiving too. We can all go into the Top 250 and want all that stuff, and do the top 10's per state, and not even touch all the great beer out out there. I'm happy with a Locals box irregardless of wants. It's pretty awesome to open a beer you have no preconceived notions of and enjoy it subjectively.

    A note to my sender: I basically use my wants to denote permawants, because there are just so many beers out there that it's impossible for me to know what i want! As such, you should have been provided with style likes/dislikes, but note that even those are also just a guideline -- I really like to try new things.

    I tried adding wants from various regions in round 3 (the first round I was in) and found it to be just impossible for me, especially when trying to keep up with hints and add more from wherever I started to narrow my sender down to.....
