Triple Threat - NBS BIF #3

Mine touches, just barely, but that counts!

 

Hint 2: My targets state launched the first subway system in the United States (don't google it if you don't already know this fun fact)

 

Hint 3: Common beer distribution- Founders, Evil Twin, Two Brothers, Shmaltz (He'Brew)

 

That removes me from contention, as well as the subway hint I think.

 

Official Hint #3: I have reviewed at least 1 beer from my targets state.

Previous Hints:

 

Spoiler hint:
I live on the border of my listed state of residence, I picked up one of the "Finest" options from a neighboring state for my target. Neighboring. Not NH.

 

Yet another shipper I can cross off the list. And your 2nd hint may have been too specific. Not many states can be in contention after that hint.

 

Hint #3: A South Park episode lampooned something connected to my target's state.

And here's a spoiler for half the box heading to my target:
New Hampshire - DIPA
Maine - BA Barley Wine
Massachusetts - BA Quad
Vermont - RIS
Rhode Island - BA RIS
Connecticut - DIPA

My target will be receiving at least one beer from every New England state.

 

Drooling over this list. *checking to see if I've crossed you off.... I haven't! Excellent.

 

My target's location is north of Albuquerque, NM.

 

hmmmmmm...checks out so far. I've got my eye on you.

 

Ooooohhhh here's a great hint for part of my target's box. Thursday, 3/10/16, 4:00 PM.

 

My target seems to enjoy the style of American IPA. I will be sending a few of the best that can be found in my area.

 

My ratings/reviews/wants/etc. meet that criteria. Will keep an eye on you.

 

I happen to know the answer to this hint.

This probably doesn't eliminate anyone. Haha.

 

I just accidentally posted a spoiler in another thread. haha. Whoops.

Here it is though: Spoiler alert: I just picked up a beer for my target. It's a beer from the brewery I mentioned yesterday that adds a delicious morning beverage to the brew and the result was magical.

 

I am in the same boat as you CD and agree completely.

 

Hint # 6:
My target lives in a state that contains a brewery with a beer on the BA Top 250.
