    Hint #1: Shipping West
    Hint #2: I have not sent you a box before (This should really narrow it down since this is my first round and I haven’t sent anyone a box)
    Hint #3: I have somehow only had two beers from your state. (Not including macro breweries) (Untappd is Griff57)
    Hint #4: I am hitting at least 1 of your “wants”
    Hint #5: we are friends on Untappd
    Hint #6: our states both border a body of water, but not the same one

    Content Hint #1: the want I am hitting, that you have not checked in, is from the state I just moved from.

    Hint #1: Shipping East
    Hint #2: You have sent me beer before
    Hint #3: You live in a state with multiple professional sports teams
    Hint #4: Your state has at least 2x the population of my state
    Hint #5: Your wants list is outdated
    Hint #6: I'm not sure that you are reading these but your first box has been dropped off
    Hint #7: You participated in the Newbies Fantasy Football league
    Hint #8: Second box (Flat rate USPS) dropped off this morning. It will probably beat the first box. It contains a few extras.
    Hint #9: Your state has at least 3x the population of my state.
    Hint #10: Do you even post bro?

    Content Hint: Though you should know who I am by now I have no idea if you are reading this. A little flat rate box should land with you tomorrow revealing my identity. Inside you will find extras. One of which is a style that you are not a huge fan of but you can drink one IPA. UPS is apparently super slow and your main box won't land until early next week.

    Hint#1: shipping to the north
    Hint#2: if your wants are up to date, I’m hitting at least two of them. According to both Untappd and BA you haven’t logged these.
    Hint#3: my target has not posted on this page as of now
    Hint#4: my target has wants on Untappd and BA
    Hint#5: you live much closer to a very popular brewery known for their IPAs than I do, but I have checked in more of their beers than you have. You'll be checking in several more soon.
    Hint#6: twofer Tuesday: your #chug beer will be a BA top 250 beer; you live near one of the HOMES
    Hint#7: because I am trying to hit as many wants as I can, this won't be a very regional box. In fact, several of the beers will have traveled 1,931 miles from brewery to me and then back north to you.

    Im down to 4 possible. Two are @max13 and @Eziel and their hints could be pretty much most people. So I am going to guess @FrankenMiller is my sender based on his last hint.

    I'm down to 3 possible senders. If I had to guess it's one of the guys that hasn't posted any hints.

    Sweet! I'm excited to try what you sent me (even the IPA lol). It seems like the only reason I ever figure out my senders is because they always say something about me not being very fond of IPAs!
