    A couple hints for target.

    1. I’m sending to the only other province in which I have lived. I lived in the biggest city in said province and in two smaller towns, one of which is a college town. My target lives in a city or town that is different from the ones in which I lived.

    2. My target will be getting a lot of beer that has touched wood. He or she seems to like beer that has touched wood.

    My first target still hasn’t posted and might get a box before they do, shouldn’t be a problem, lol……..odds are high that the box will travel down a very long road……….this road isn’t far from where I work strangely enough

    Target #2 is still getting “The Jhonny Tight Lips Treatment” that’s not a hint either, NO HINTS, or soup for him……..also not a hint……
    Not only are they not getting hints one of the beers expired 3 years ago, lol!!!! Being a jerk for no reason is the best……..

    So that’s where I stashed that tiny can? I didn’t intend to break the 6 beer limit so can we just say it’s a tip for all your hard work organizing?

    My first target has tried more beers then I have and like myself is struggling to consolidate them onto one site, lol……

    My second target has excellent taste in senders, thanks again for organizing Electros

    My target appears to be a serial player of this game.

    Packing up the box now and will likely ship on Monday/Tuesday.

    Haul Hint:

    A few BA stouts, a BA barleywine, a lambic, a BA Rye beer. Half from Ontario and half from abroad. Mostly in the 4.25-4.45 range on UT. I hope he or she will enjoy!

    I got a fantastic box from an unknown sender yesterday. I haven't tried a single one of these, nor even heard of some of them. They all look amazing and tasty. They'll also be put to good use the next time I have a bonfire (soooon...!) in the back yard. :grin: Again, thank you very much!

    Oh, and the BA Handful of Darkness has actually been a 'want' for a while as well, as I loved the regular version. I can't believe I lucked out and got one in this BIF.

    Thanks again very much to my sender. Very diverse styles represented. I have not seen or heard of any of these beers and most of the brewers too. Will definately be researching your home brewery...

    I am looking forward to weekend already to sample!

    Spoiler: The tablebier will be first.

    Cheers!

    When someone moves to my recipient's province from mine, they stereotypically always start asking others to join them. If they're a little less overt about it, they just spam us with the weather.

    Anyway, this person has pretty much identical tastes to mine, so fulfilling them shouldn't be a problem.

    Ok, I've returned from the woods... donated more than enough blood, acquired a darker skin tone(didn't think that was possible), and enjoyed ample time in and on the water.

    To my surprise I had this wonderful box awaiting me...

    Wow, thanks for the amazing box, to my mystery sender. Seems I neglected to take a picture of the address before I left the box this morning. More investigation required :wink:
