    Similarly, my ratings and wants should be generally up to date. Also, someone recommended sharing UT handles if we have that, preferably before pairings go out, so I've got the same screenname over there (kemoarps, in case you can't see the letters right......

    Lots of pre-spring sun here on my day off, and a lot of beers, and some new on my day off.

    Likewise on the profile updates, my favorites and dislike(s) are reflected now. I haven't really touched the BA beer database in years, but my Untappd screen name is the same as my BA name (xul) and I use that regularly.

    Pairings are coming this afternoon. Please bear with me, as I'm battling a headache, so the BMs will be crawling vice flying. :grinning:

    Almost halfway through pairing notifications, and I'm going to take a quick break to report on this ninja beer from @JayORear . (If you haven't gotten your pairing yet, it's coming, and don't worry: I didn't tell myself who I'm sending to yet, either. :stuck_out_tongue: )

    Horizon is a dry-hopped pilsner clocking in at 4.5%, and is a collaboration between New Trail and Human Robot.

    Straight up: this is awesome. The backbone is a solid, standard German pils, but the dry hopping makes the nose leap with fresh, bright citrus notes - a shade less aromatic than an IPL. On the palate, that bright freshness is wonderful, and entirely complementary of the inimitable pilsner malt flavor.

    Dry, crisp, refreshing, and flavorful. Not as traditional as other pilsners, perhaps, but really damn good, and still quite respectful of the style.

    OK, time for me to start dropping some official hints.

    I organize my hints by number. That will matter. That is an unofficial hint.

    Hint #1: My box will probably travel South, but it will definitely travel North.
