    Such a jerk move! Just kidding! I should be up to MSP in the near future for a SpartanNash food show. I’ll let you know and probably drag some Speciation bottles along for you.

    @Vidblain I know I said this earlier, but I’m very much a fan of this glass. The beer is pretty fantastic as well haha thanks again!

    I mean, who knows whether I'll survive to ever send anything again? Had to get out a token box at the very least!

    I'll never say no to Speciation, but @FlintB may get ornery if you horn in on his distro! :wink::grin: If you make it down here, definitely let me know - I'd be happy to buy you a beer at Barrel Theory/Wild Mind/Surly/Dangerous Man, etc.!

    Glassware > beer :grin: Really glad you enjoy that one - love the glass, and the beer! Citra is my jam!

    Hint #1: I’m thinking of a football player. He has played in this century

    hint 2: He has use of both hands (a football player can now be eliminated)

    Hint #3: He has made the playoffs

    unrelated hint: I'm shipping east, or really, really west

    hint 4: He was a first round draft pick

    Hint #5: He played college ball at a “power 5” conference school

    hint 6: He has played for a team that has won at least one super bowl. I can’t remember if he was on that team or not. I’m getting old.

    Hint #7: He did make the pro bowl in his career

    hint 8: [​IMG]

    Hint #9: I know this isn’t a football hint, but Jabari Parker flashed so much potential.

    hint 10: my favorite football team plays in a South division in the NFL

    Hint #11: I’m hoping my favorite football team takes a serious look at Tua next year. Not sure if they have a franchise quarterback of the future in place yet.

    hint 12:
    [​IMG]

    Hint #13: back to the original football player i was thinking of...I'd like to think he'd be a popular choice in Japan

    hint 14: the number of times he was selected to the pro bowl = the # pick he was drafted

    Hint #15: unrelated to the football player hint - I’ve been to one target’s state but not the other.

    hint 16: Either I have sent or received or exchanged beer with one target before, but not the other.

    Hint #17: hints 9 and 13 go together, hints 10-12 refer to a team, and hints 1-8,14 refer to a player

    hint 18: the sum of the digits of the football player's jersey on the team that i have been referencing is 16

    Guess today was Shooter McGavin day! Mine had a leaky seal (thankfully @Vidblain bagged it up real nice so the beer was contained) so I had to drink it fast. Delicious beer and Citra is pretty much my favorite hop. This glass is fucking awesome, I'm gonna push to get some made at work! Thanks Chris!

    Couldn't agree more, I'm impressed every time I see that clip. Curious to see how our current president's reaction time would stack up.

    Your rant rings true. Two years ago, I managed to stand in a 30 minute line for the weekly release of Veil cans. It was not too bad because there was usually someone in front of me or behind me from out of town (mostly out of state) so I had the chance to yak with them about the brewery scene. Once, I stood in line at Triple Crossing for an hour in order to get some great release that week.

    Those days are gone. If I see a long line when I drive by a brewery I just turn around and go home. Maybe I am just getting too old but my consolation is I stop on my way home and fill a growler (an essential tool to keep in your car) at Growlers To Go. They always have an awesome selection of beers on draft.

    It seems we are a lot alike. My condolences!

    Hint #9- one of my targets has been more active than the other in this thread by an order of magnitude. If I've counted correctly, at the moment the number of posts by the more active target can be divisible by the number of posts by the less active target and result in a whole number.

    I agree with you about Triple Crossing (TC) IPAs. Almost all I have had, and I have had a lot, were really good. It may sound like heresy, but I will take my chances with a new TC IPA release then I would with a new Veil IPA release.

    Other than a few weeks ago when they held anniversary events, i usually do not have to wait more than ten minutes.

    Keep me in mind in the event you would like some of their IPAs.

    Anyone in this group planning on going to Bark Lord Day at Transient on Sunday? I am itching for a bottle of Cantuckley, but I don' t think my buddy will be able to sweet talk his wife into making the detour on the way home from Dark Lord, after being our DD for a couple of days. If anyone is able and willing to work out a trade, please let me know.
