    Hey, I like lambic. I also like Smoked Porters and rauchbiers from Germany and Alaska. I also like big-ass stouts above 129 calories per 12oz. I also like stickers from your local breweries to plug on my beer fridge.

    I live in Gatineau QC, but for those who dont know thats like 2 minutes from an LCBO. #justsayin

    My target is going to get glassware cause its getting ridiculous downstairs here... glasses everywhere. Hopefully it survives the send this time.

    My target is West of me.... and if he/she likes this post, I will send out a little something that was never released from canada's top-2 brewers. If he/she doesn't like this post, they are getting a bottle of my 7-year-old peated scottish ale home-brew.

    You've been warned.

    Updated my wants on here, but isnt a huge list.. I'm a big fan of big hoppy IPAs, dark stouts, RIS and BA beers.. pales, saisons, flavoured beers i enjoy if theyre good. not a huge fan of sours in general.

    target is East, and same province my last BIF box went to.

    My Untappd is KeKeKumba. Everything I've had for the last three years is on there. Ignore my wants on BA. I prefer IPA's and saisons, but really anything other than smoked beers and black IPA's are fine with me. Don't be afraid to send something I've already had if I left it a good rating on Untappd!

    Box is going west as usual. Unfortunately my next trip to VT and Boston is happening a week after the shipping window is supposed to end...buuuut maybe I'll wait. It would be worth it for my target I'd say even though I don't like be that guy.

    Just updated my wants but I'm easy to please, I love IPA's, Double IPA's and anything BA. I can appreciate all styles except not a fan of any Gluten Free brews.

    Box I'm shipping is going East

    Just perused my targets ticks.

    You've had a lot of great beers, and many from the west coast. You're gonna make this a worthy challenge…

    Hint #2: If I were to say that my target has had/rated/ticked 10 times the number of beers I have I would be under-representing his/her total.

    This is going to be a challenge!

    Hint: I'm shipping east to a city I've shipped beer to before (though not in a CANBIF)

    To my sender, all of the best info on me is on BA, my hads are completely up to date, my wants and gots are most of the way there, I'll fix them up soon. I like beer of any and all styles, but have been really digging IPA's and porters lately. I love to try new and exciting beers but certainly don't mind revisiting some favourites. Summed up, if you send me a box full of things that you like to drink, I'll be more than happy!

    Hint #1: based on my secret spy satellites a.k.a. google maps your porch looks very sturdy...not sure I will be able to destroy it or not.

    1) A box will be heading east
    2) My target has had many, many beers. This is going to be tough, but I got some plans.

    Hint #2: if I walked to your house, every workday starting today with your package, and took into account that I would be carrying a heavy ass box, it might get there in time for the 2016 summer CANBIF.

    Likes: Anything funky, BA, imperials, Rye, Wheat, stouts, barley/wheat wines. I am a hop-head, the hoppier the better!
    Dislikes: Sours, Lambics, anything near so.

    Honestly it is nice to try something new, and something I will never see in Ontario. I don't have a wants list. I frequently rate/review anyone can see what I have been drinking lately.

    I have been working a lot lately, and I will soon be ready to start my hints.

    Wants updated but it's only a guide.

    Like- BA brews, stouts, BIG ipa's

    Dislike- Fruit, Lambic, smoked, low alcohol, gluten free, bitters, dopplebock, super sugary and gauze

    My target is fairly new to BA and in a city/area that is MIGHTY expensive to live in. Next hint Sunday
