Hint #1: I have shipped to your state before Hint#2: Not sure if you're a bourbon drinker... Hint#3: Content hint- I got a hookup for one of your wants and it is on its way to me Hint#4: I have been in more Newbie rounds than you have Hint#5: you have a shipping restriction. I will be shipping on March 4th Hint#6: you have fewer than 100 wants. I will be hitting at least 2 of them. Hint#7: East of the Mississippi Hint#8: You are a member of the same bottle club I am.
Hell yeah, lookin forward to this Cali box! I’m not even going to try to figure out what the release is, I’ll find out when I tear the box open next week
Content Hint: I don't think I was able to hit any of your BA wants, but you've expressed some interest in at least one of these beers. I may have had assistance from a fellow Newbie.
Sorry everyone! I was out of town for a hockey tournament last week and didn't come up with time for hints: Hint1: Shipping South Hint2: Shipping East Hint3: I've had a handful of beers from your state Hint4: I have more Untappd Checkins and in true SWTFYW style, your box probably won't fit the rules, per se, but you should be happy with what you get.
Sorry everyone, I went a little too hard in Florida last week and forgot that I was an old man and can’t drink quite like I used to. I tried to log on here a few times this week but even typing the word beer made me queasy. I’m back on the horse now. Or off the wagon. Something like that. For my sender— my apologies if you’ve been posting clever clues up to this point. I promise I’ll read them tonight. To my target— get ready for me to reveal myself to you: Hint 1: If you haven’t figured out who your sender is yet— it might be me. Hint 2: We may or may not have shipped before to each other before.
Im the only person in my state. Its not my team that is in the top half, I dont think my team is even in the top 25, are you shipping to me?
My porch was demolished yesterday by my Newbies Winter Blues box from @Greeny87! This box was 37 lbs of expertly packaged beer. Every single beer in this box sounds awesome and every single beer is a new tick (many from my wants list and most should be wants anyway). Here's the details: The Cans: Aslin - Vapid IPA (Always interested in Aslin beers) Aslin - Beer Drinking Is Not A Crime DIPA (Ditto) Aslin - Dreams (Been wanting to try these newer Aslin Stouts) Aslin - Orchid (Excited to try the updated version of this one) Forest & Main - All By My Selves (New Brewery ticks - I dig the labels) Forest & Main - A Play About Friendship Neshaminy Creek - The Shape of Hops to Come (Tasty new Brewery tick) Lawson's - Triple Sunshine (Long time huge want!) Hill Farmstead - Double Nelson (Huge Want like all HF) Hill Farmstead - Mosaic (Huge Want) The Bottles: Hill Farmstead - Flora Blueberry/Raspberry (Huge Want!!!!) Alesmith - Hammerhead Speedway (Want) Lawson's - Fayston Maple Chocolate Tart Cherry (Want) 2SP - Bourbon the Russian (New Brewery Tick and Should be want) Jester King - Boxer's Revenge (Want) Forest and Main - A Life in the Sky (New brewery tick that sounds delicious) Group Photo: Thank you so much for the super generous box of killer beers @Greeny87! Time to get to drinking! Cheers!
Looks like @beermanben needed two boxes and 50+ pounds of beer, mead and hot sauce to utterly destroy my porch... Let’s start with some big bottles! Central Waters 21 - new tick and past years have been phenomenal Ale Asylum Wörtlord - new brewery tick Funk Factory Blackberry Meerts - new tick and always “want” FF sours Goose Island Brasserie Noir BA Stout - new tick 4 Hands Absence of Light - new tick (always like peanut butter in my stouts) Central Waters Vanilla Bean Stout - new tick that sounds like a win, win, win Next up, some small(er) bottles: GI Bourbon County Bramble Rye - new tick and always excited to try the BCBS variants New Glarus 25th Anniversary Ale - new tick Collective Arts BA Origin of Darkness Vanilla and Toasted Coconut - new tick and my first stout from this brewery Pips Meadery Plum - new tick and would’ve listed it as a want but ya can’t add Meads to your want list on BA(!) Founders Mothership Series BA Imperial Stout - new tick, hell yes! FW 17 Velvet Merkin - new tick and I need a new Merkin anyway Now, for the grand finale...a shit-ton of cans and some delicious hot sauce! All new ticks, lots of new brewery ticks and should be wants (I’m really bad *sorry* about updating my wants) Eagle Park So Hot Right Now Cashmere Eagle Park Here I Go Again Eagle Park Big Botms Eagle Park Demon Haze Secret Aardvark Habanero Hot Sauce (already tried it last night...delicious!) Hacienda Closer Everywhere Tree House All That Is and All That Ever Will Be (!) Foreign Objects Chrysalis into Beauty Perennial (c’mon and ride...) Fantastic Voyage Hailstorm LMFAgOse Eagle Park Miss Swiss Hot damn! So many, mucho, lots of thanks to Ben for these amazing boxes of amazing beer, mead and hot sauce!!! Can’t thank you enough for this amazing BIF box!
Hint 14 (final hint): Multiple handshakes. I'm packing it up this weekend, so it should be arriving mid-week.
Thanks to @brutalfarce for this nice box of north east goodness! I just noticed that this could possibly be only the first phase . I guess that gives me some time to make a little more space in the cellar/fridge. Either way great box and already enjoyed two fantastic beers out of it!
BA only hint: your box is packed and ready to go. But you’re not. So I’m shipping two more boxes to other Newbies in the mean time.
Hint 3: I’m currently awaiting some Trillium and hopefully some Tree House beers to add to your box-although your wants haven’t been updated, I think you’ll like beers from these places Hint 4: we are in the same time zone Hint 5: we have very similar beer interests— I’m drinking a Trillium IPA as I write this.:::::
