    Hint #1.....Shipping West
    Hint #2.....My state has 3 major E/W Interstates, only one of these three crosses your state
    Hint #3.....I didn't have anything on your wish list in the cellar or access to it, but now have a deal in place to land it.
    Hint #4....You're west of the MISSOURI river
    Hint #5....You've been on BA longer and have more trades than I.

    Like if you would enjoy different vintages of the same want on different days.

    Hint 1: Not sending to Herb.
    Hint 2: You provided a wants list...I also have your #wishlist
    Hint 3: I have received a box from you previously.
    Hint 4: Shipping East
    Hint 5: Still not sending to Herb.
    Hint 6: It's snowing out my window right now, but according to weather.com, it will get warmer here today than it will for you.

    Content Hint: You liked my earlier question. I supremely hope you'll enjoy the bottle this nets you.

    Bonus Content Hint: I'm fairly certain I could send an all local 12-day horizontal that you would be very pleased with and hammer your wants as extras. But then, some of your wants are real solid too, and I have friends in low places. So, as of now I'm leaning towards running a train on your wants/wishes for the dox and giving you some local flair for extras. LMK if you prefer a different approach.

    I have eliminated 55% of you as my sender.

    NEW HINT IN BOLD:


    Target Hints:
    Looks like I am shipping East...
    Everything about your wish list is very reasonable...(puts DQ back in cellar)
    there is water touching your state
    other people need to start giving hints, but you are doing alright so far.
    i have never shipped beer to you, nor have i received beer from you
    last year I participated in the 12 days of Christmas BIF, you did not

    Content Hint:
    According to your BA want list, it looks like I can do 12 days of wants.

    growing up, im sure we were all told "its better to give than to receive". it didnt mean much back when we were younger and just a little bit more as a young adult. over the last 5+ years, ive learned and experienced a lot that has proven that to ultimately be true. i met my wife, got married, had children, etc, all of which taught me so much about generosity and giving. ive also met a number of you generous bastards. so...

    since im sitting out this year, and since it is definitely better to give than receive, and since ive hijacked this thread enough on multiple occasions that i should run a lif in here. that said, its going to require some work on your part. i am looking for a picture or video of a recreation of a scene of your favorite christmas movie (this is 12 days of christmas, after all). it can be loosely based, or a direct reenactment.

    @Mipper ran this over in swtfyw a while back and i was lucky enough to win, and i got his blessing to run it again. he can show you the footage of my winning submission as im sure he has it somewhere.

    how do you win? make me laugh. hard. seriously, there is no criteria, but i suggest you make it funny. or include a scantily clad female. your call.

    what do you win? the winner will get at minimum the 2 beers below, which were both really solid.
    1. manayunk rise and grind maple
    2. manayunk rise and grind chili

    Hint #1: Shipping East
    Hint #2: I have never shipped to or received from my target.
    Hint #3: An anagram of my target's name is not "A Trade Vet".
    Hint #4: My target is a slacker, as well!
    Hint #5: My target appears to use Untappd far more frequently than BA for tracking his consumption.


    Box Trivia #1: I am sad that it is only 12 DoX, as I just have too many things to send. That doesn't mean it all aint comin', I just don't know what I want to wrap. In previous years I have sent unnumbered but coded bottles, allowing target to select a style for the evening's consumption. Not this year.
    Box Trivia #2: I am not active in SWTFYW or Locals currently, but some dickbutts are making it in your box as extras. They're your problems now.

    Uncontent hint: One of your beers in the 12 days (the last and greatest) was going to have proper glassware along with it. Unfortunately, that glass has been destroyed by my damn cats. This beer is one I picked up from the source in October.

    Hint#whatever- you've been on BA longer but have less logged trades than I do.

    Content hint#2- untapped shows that you haven't had any Bottle Logic. I'll make sure to change that :wink:

    Hint #5 - My target has been in more BIFs than I have.

    To my sender - I have eliminated about 70% of the people (excluding the 2-3 who still haven't posted in this thread). Wouldn't be shocked if my first box lands soon.....and has a return address from Tampa.

    Hint #4 Shipping East.
