    Also would it spoil the fun to have beer shipped early in the name of freshness?

    You can ship whenever you are ready - especially in the name of fresh hops! Many targets' first guess of their sender is when a box appears on the porch. :slight_smile:

    If anything, though, I'd ramp up the clues to try to get your target to bite. :wink:

    Many of us send hoppy stuff as a first strike, and a second box with the stuff that ages better. To each his or her own.

    No one yet, partly (I think) because we've had some less-than-robust hints from several participants.

    Yeah, everyone figured everything out already. Haven't you been paying attention?

    As @BBThunderbolt likes to say, it’s still VEEEEERY early - the official share date is the weekend of April 22-23.

    Having said that, I’m probably gonna ship next week, because I’ve got a LOT of stuff piling up the week after. So my target better get hoppin’ (is that another hint???), or they’re in for a BIIIIIIIIIIG surprise.

    No confirmed pairings as of yet. There's no penalty for guessing, other than the embarrassment of being wrong. I mean, ask @snaotheus .... I wouldn't know. :stuck_out_tongue:

    Zagacki. It's pretty early, so I'd actually be surprised if there were any confirmed guesses as of right now.

    That said, I'm dropping some major hints, as are others, so I expect between now and next Friday a number of pairings will be revealed. :grinning:

    HINT #1 - at least one of my hints is a LIE!!!! It is up to you to decide If this hint is the truth or an actual lie itself

    HINT #2- Shipping West

    Hint#3- Look! The median income in my targets state is less than my commonwealth . At least according to the 2020 census performed by the US Government . I once worked for the US Census, but that is irrelevant to the hint

    HINT#4- I find it very Interesting that my targets state has less mean average travel time work than my commonwealth . Source US Govt census 2020

    Hint#5- Professional Pickleball, Professional Soccer, Professional Futsal and Professional Rugby. My targets state has/had at least one professional franchise in these major league sports

    HINT#6- Not necessarily my targets town but specifically my targets state has access to the subjective “large body of water”

    HINT #7- Still shipping West…of the Trenton Morrisville bridge , trying to help youse guys out

    My home is south of your home
    Michigan has more coastline than Massachusetts
    Massachusetts is smaller than Michigan with a higher cost of living
    Massachusetts has more state symbols than Michigan
    A moose bit your sister is a direct reference to my nom de plume
    I don’t get the Pontiac bonneville reference

    are you my sender ?

    As much as I like you, no, I am not your senator. Or sender.
    At SAN now, I may not be able to make much sense.

    Hint(s) #6 - If this is your state, you're not my target:

    [​IMG]
    I missed this parade by four years but later lived (relatively) nearby for 18 months

    [​IMG]
    And we used to drive to this state sometimes on weekends.

    [​IMG]
    And I spent a wonderful July and August vacation enjoying the warm weather.

    [​IMG]
    And last but not least, I had a good buddy from here, in both AIT, permanent party, and Germany
