The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

Come on Seb, you know I got you. You're on the never ending list that I just can't get rid of! Give me a lil time bud

 

Thinking about hitting Peekskill and maybe trying to get some Plan Bee tomorrow with the family any pointers @Mikexw

Edit: been to Peekskill numerous times, first time trying to get Plan Bee

 

No idea but I'm sure the FL guys can get it/have it. Figured I'd float it out there and see if anyone can hook it up.

Yeah, what he said.

 

33. Thanks!

 

89 and Westbrook. Thanks!

 

Sorry guys been very busy with snow, keeping my business open, some dumb ass contractor that had my property snow plowing last season but lost it this season cause he double billed, than tried to say we didn't cancel his service and he gave me two bills for "plowing" but he didn't realize that I have 2 night vision cameras outside my business and when I asked him to review the footage for proof of work, or even having his crews on my property he got very defensive and all of sudden is to busy to talk to me.

YEAH that kind of shit still happens. Word of advice, if you own a business and or property you need cameras, good cameras, outside night vision is a must and a good DVR.

Anyways Im sorry to my sender, if your trying to send me hints and Im missing them, Im not doing it on purpose Im swamped atm, and to my targets, looks like warm weather this week, so my Belgium in Box LIF and Mid Round BIF will ship this week, sorry for the delay but weather has been a bitch. Who knew 36 degrees feels like 60 degrees after weeks of sub 20 degrees.

Now I have to figure where Fedex is with my payroll thats a day late and my team members are getting ready to burn down my store. Everyone is happy when everything is closed due to major weather, but that Fedex Express truck better risk his life for payroll….

 

I will guess 54 and Funky Buddha and thanks for the chance! And while all I have is your username and state so far, you are in my master file!

 

Pointer 1 is get lunch at Peekskill -- their food is awesome (along with their beer).

As for Plan Bee -- Evan normally sells a semi-random assortment of stuff at the Beacon Farmer's Market (right near the Beacon train station if that helps) on Sundays. I usually monitor his Facebook page, and he normally updates on Friday or Saturday, but no news yet for this week. I would GUESS he'll be there, and the most likely things he will be selling are two of his newer releases -- Eye-la (cherrywood smoked- single malt aged ale w/ wild yeast) and Flower City (balanced honey yeast); he may or may not have some new Farmstand Ales. If he's selling anything, I'll probably try and get over there; let me know if and when you expect to be there.

If he is NOT at the Farmer's Market, we're out of luck for tomorrow.

 

Does he normally sell out? The plan is to get there around 11-11:30 and head to Peekskill after for brunch. However times are subject to change with two little ones.

 

I'll go with 69. Thanks for the chance and welcome to the group!

Edit: First tap should be Country Boy.

 

No he rarely sells out (unless it's a special release, which I don't think is the case); but you never know what he will have there -- usually 3 or 4 choices.

I just BM'd you too...

 

38 check ins

 

Has 59 been guessed?
First tap will be Westbrook? Funky Buddha? IDK... I have no idea what goes on at that event lol

 

So I woke up to an unexpected box on my porch.

I wasn't really expecting anything so I read who it was from - @kgncfl

Hmm - weird. Have I won any LIFs? No. Am I his target on the Stout BIF? He's not even on it and half the box aren't stouts.

So I proceed to open it and holy freaking shit.

Serious TOP WANTS sitting right there in a 12 bottle shipper. WTF Keith!?!? I think @mbmiche was in on it as he alluded to something on a BM about me "getting one of those top wants soon".

THANK YOU DUDE! Such good deeds will never go unpunished.



Hipster Brunch & Jackie O's = mega wants!

Hope you're settled in Keith, as you'll start getting boxes now
Thanks again!

 

And sorry for the super crappy background and setting for the pr0n... "wife evasive maneuver #2" this morning when I saw the box. Out the back door into the garage.

 

49, CCB, thanks and welcome!

 

69 was already guessed by @xlCooRsYlx

Sorry-- 59 was guessed by @rspauldi

 

Hint #1 - My target has fewer wants than me.
Hint #2 - I have shipped to & received from my target's state before. (possibly, but not necessarily as part of this BIF and its associated LIF's, ninjas, and/or side trades)
Hint #3 - My target's city(town?) has a far higher population but a far lower population density than mine.
Hint #4 - My target has professed to having no idea who his sender is

Content hints:

Right now I have 111.7oz of beer set aside in 5 bottles. Hovering right around an average BA score of 90...
1 is an NJ only release from an out of state brewer.
1 is a very recent release in an uncommon style from my most local brewery.
1 is a recent re-release from a non-local brewery.
1 is a barrel aged seasonal from a regional brewery.

I'm thinking 2 crowlers should complete the box. 3 options: 2 brews from a very well regarded NJ only brewer (a stout & double IPA both rated over 90) and a 99 rated APA from across the country that has only recently expanded their distribution here.

I'll take votes. If my target votes, I'll obviously take his preference.

And assuming they are all still available Monday evening... The box should ship Tuesday.

 

Looks like @mbmiche beat you to the punch with 51!

 

Go local!
