    I'm not picky, I just enjoy good beer. From my list u can somewhat see the styles.

    Good thing you're not picky... since you won and are getting so many boxes, you can expect a pretty broad selection with that little direction to go on.

    Back to the hints:

    Hint #1 My target has been a BA less time than me.

    My target already knows who he is so I'll leave a hint about the contents.

    It contains two beers off his want list that are from the same brewery...one a collab and the other not.

    My target will be receiving a beer from his wants in which the brewery of that beer is located in the state of one of my favorite teams division rivals.

    My target will be receiving a beer that is not on his 'Wants' list, but a collab that is very closely related to this beer.

    My target will receive a beer that is a play on the words of this band:

    Very intriguing... I'm thinking Cherry Adam from the Wood and a HotD collab? :wink:

    Serious guess is Conflux #2 and Obsidian Stout, unless you were super awesome and sent a Mirror Mirror, Abyss, or Class of '88 Smoked Porter, but I'm pretty sure that Deschutes is the only brewery on my list with a collab.


    No way! That's my cousin's brother-in-law's elementary school teacher's favorite team too!

    Well shit! My target already knows that I'm sending because I BM'd him a tracking #... didn't realize it was a surprise. Thanks @Lehighace06 for setting up the "mini" and a HUGE shoutout for handling the targets for the regular BIF! Cheers all!

    Hint # 1: I can hit about 15 of my target's wants. I'm not going to (sorry!), but I think I can make my target plenty happy.
    Hint # 2: My target is not in New Jersey

    You look to be off to a good start...I feel like I have to get my hints out there quick because the shipping time from Ohio to PA is so short and I dropped it off already haha.

    Here are another couple of hints...no beers in the box were brewed east of Ohio and only one beer in the box is not on your wants list.

    Sorry I never sent out a broad message about that, but I assigned targets (marginally) randomly so that we could do hints & hauls without everyone already knowing their sender, not a huge deal though if anyone ruins some surprises, this isn't a big BIF like the Hastur or SWTFYW one...

    Anyway, no problem at all, once I had everyone's addresses, targets for the OP BIF were a piece of cake. I've been wanting to run a BIF on my own and this was a great 'trial run' to get a sense of what's involved in the process.

    Very intriguing, it's starting to sound like this is box will do a lot more damage to my porch than just 22oz :wink:

    Since I'm the only Jerseyite, it ain't me.

    If it's what I am thinking it is hands down my favorite non BA stout :slight_smile:

    I'm shipping south of the Mason Dixon. I'd give some hints regarding what I'm sending but damned if I've figured out what I'm sending yet.

    I have a bottle of it in my fridge but haven't had it yet, but I have had the Pappy Van Winkle variant and it was very excellent.
