Stout BIF Round 4 Hints & Hauls

WEEKLY HINT!
Hint 1 - shipping south
Hint 2 - I have been in other BIFs with my target, though I've never sent anything to them.
Hint 3 - Shipping to a state partially bordered by at least one large body of water.
Hint 4 - Target does not have what is arguably the most famous (and highest ranked) stout produced in my state on his wants.
Hint 5 - I've shipped at least one BIF related box to my Target's state in the last couple of months. It was not to my target.
Hint 6 - Target lives in a state more populous than mine.

Box starting to come together, was able to pick up a few more out of state items on my trip to Wisconsin last weekend, and also deciding to unload some more items out of the cellar.

 

Looks like you have 10 potential senders - I'm still in the 20's. Sooooo.....

 

New hint. This one might be too good n

My target's state is very big on college athletics, and the states most successful teams are rivals and play in the same conference.

 

Hint #1: Shipping west of IL
Hint #2: there is beer in my target's avatar
Hint #3: my target has been on BA longer than I have
Hint #4: I began following my target.
Hint #5: my target has not 'liked' any of my previous hints as of this one
Hint #6: shipping to a state that begins with a consonant
Hint #7: one of my previous hints is no longer valid

 

I think I figured these two out!

I recently removed some wants. Sender if you had some of those set aside.....rest assured that I still liked them and would happily drink again!!

 

If I hadn't eliminated you, I'd have you as a top suspect after this.

 

^waaaaaaaita minute...did I screw this up? I think I removed you based on the "major championships" clue, but I just realized the Hurricanes won in 2006. Hmmm.

 

Was it the avatar change? or the people I stopped following? or someone liking my post?

Sorry not sorry I'm still not making it easy.

 

Avatar is my guess. And you should know how I feel about making it easy or not.

 

Going to put a few hints up this weekend that should give me away or come really close.

 

Hint: Opie Taylor

Planning to ship my boxes during the official shipping window.

 

Annnddddd I just realized totally fell asleep early last night and forgot to post a new hint so tonight it's gonna get crazy. I'll be sending off a small volley next week so it's gonna come out soon anyway.

 

I just received a Hop Bomb filled with Permawants and a new want that I think @Justinsosmart is the responsible party!

Alpine trifecta: Nelson, Duet, Pure Hoppiness all permawants. All delicious!
Modern Times Booming Rollers another want and a new tick for me.

Jameson T-shirt swag.

Thanks Justin nice surprise to come home to after a long drive!

 

Want to throw out there this forum inspired me to spend an inordinate amount of money on a bottle release in St Pete today (not cycle). If there is any sign of life on this thread from my target in the next 24 hours they will be receiving a sour/saison blend aged in oak with vanilla and coffee beans and Brett finished...

 

....aaaaand another one down..

Still looking at 10 potentials.

 

Just wait til you see the stout box I have planned for you.
All the Alpine is super fresh, cheers!

 

Here's my proof of life, just in case...

 

Likewise... I exist

 

#VBS time while I craft new hints.




Also added in a splash of Rittenhouse Rye for some kick!

 

Wow, strong hints of grape jelly up front with a strawberry jam finish with ALL BRETT in between. Man, I could tackle a 12 pack of this... I am uber excited to see how this ages out!
