Beers I can get in Alberta.....

I'm not going to be devastated if someone sends me something awesome I've had in the past, and bonus points for anything super high in ABV.

Not that picky when it comes to styles, I generally like anything that can be thrown in the cellar,

 

Hello sender!

I'm a fan of things I can drink right away. I used to be a big time ticker but life kinda got crazy in 2018 and I've stopped using untappd mostly, but you can find my info here: https://untappd.com/user/Bdemarco

I like all sorts of stouts, BA or not, porters, lambic. Not crazy about sours or flanders lately. IPA's are my favourite, but not crazy about DIPA. No Dub/Trip/Quad please. I love coffee, but drink it black so I'm not crazy about anything sweet. I travel a lot with a band and make it a mission to try and check out some breweries along the way. I'm open to trying new places with good beers. I don't necessarily need all 6 beers so If you have glasses or swag, I'm totally fine with that too!

 

To my sender, If you don't know me you will in a seconds!

I really like Barrel Aged bottles. Something new from this year or 4 years ago, it doesn't matter. If it's good and it's a BA Stout (bourbon, whiskey, tequila etc etc..) or something Fruited Barrel aged, I'm in!

I really doesn't like something near Pilsner or IPA.

You can take a peak for my untappd profile to get an idea : https://untappd.com/user/remsad

Merci et santé!

 

Bit of a ticker, so anything new to me is good. I use RB under the same name. Style wise I am pretty open and like sours and stouts alike. Cheers.

 

Ok. First hints.

1. My target has posted fewer times on this site than I have.

2. My target lives west of me.

 

Well both my targets have done Canadian BIF's many times before so they probably already knew both my boxes are heading East.........

 

Damn I'm the only one from Quebec! Quelle chance!

 

My box is packed and sealed...just need to find the time to hit the post office - should be able to go next Wednesday...heading East!

 

The lack of province in our info makes the hints a lot harder to decipher than years past...

 

Me too.


Hint the next:

Im waiting for my target to post here with likes and dislikes.

 

Looking forward to this round! I should share my preferences to my senders, so here goes...

• Likes --> barleywine, olde ale, Scotch ale/wee heavy, stout/imperial stout, and sours. Especially BA.
• Dislikes --> pastry stouts, anything too sweet, hazies

I'm going to pack up and send my boxes out this week. Cheers!

 

Still waiting for feedback from my target as well... I'm in no rush to send but would like to cater to tastes where possible.

First hint... my target is west of me... surprise, surprise.

To my target: you have the same username on a platform other than this site-- that I've creeped you on-- which has let me see that you like both big malty beers, as well as funky and sour things. I shall start assembling!
