    Much thanks to BA "concealed" for running "50 States LIF pt 11" - I am really looking forward to receiving his box! He pointed out that it has become a negative trend to wait a long duration before getting the next round started, so I am breaking the pattern and starting the next LIF the day after I won. This is part 12 of the 50 states LIF.

    I will be sending a variety of bottles/cans from North Carolina along with several other tasty/limited/semi-rare/worthwhile beers in this box.

    Please only participate in this LIF if you can start your own LIF. Your LIF can be whatever type of competition you want it to be, the only rule you have to follow is players from your state and previous winner’s states are not eligible for the contest.

    States NOT eligible are:
    CA, MI, IL, NY, MN, PA, OH, CT, WA, TX, MA, NC

    Also like the original, I'm going to limit it to the contiguous 48 states

    Keeping with the others before me I will keep the questions loosely about US states/countries/provinces of Canada. I will update at the end of the day with hints, limit one guess per hint or day:

    1) My wife & I completed a Pacific Coast Highway (Route 1) trip this past summer from Santa Rosa to San Diego. Other than Russian River, which CA brewery impressed us the most?

    2) I have only attended one brewery-only release party outside of North Carolina, what brewery was this at?

    3) On a recent trip to visit family in Ohio, I stocked up on these (4) local IPAs?

    4) For my 30th Birthday, my parents bought me this $$$ bottle?

    5) 3 friends & I take an annual "NFL Man Trip" where we go to a different NFL city for a 4-day weekend and a game. This year, we went to San Francisco 49ers @ Seattle Seahawks. What (3) breweries did we visit?

    Good luck to all, I will do one round of hints per day somewhere between 9AM - Noon EST and hopefully wrap this up by the end of the week.

    There are only like 30 or so breweries in Seattle, WA and 12 or so have been mentioned in this thread, so I am not going to give hints on this last question. Keep guessing (one guess per BA per day).
