    Here are the details:

    • 144 oz minimum
    • Beers must be listed on Beer Advocate as a Stout, American Stout, Russian Imperial Stout, etc..
    • Beers must have a minimum rating on Beer Advocate of 90 or higher.
    • Try to hit wants if possible, or beers that otherwise may not be available to your target(seekabrew.com)
    • Noobs are welcomed but will be required to ship out one week earlier than everyone else & may require a sponsor
    Looking at a March 18-28 shipping window, giving a little bit over a month to gather beer

    First hint. I have been on BA longer than my target, and I have more reviews on BA than my target

    Hmmm, I think I'm ready to ship! It looks like my target and I share similar taste profiles.

    Hint: An NFL team in my targets state drafted a player from my undergrad alma mater last year. It was a bad year to be drafted as he wasn't in discussions for Rookie of the Year but he immediately made a huge impact on that teams performance overall...

    I think I am a fan of the NFL team that drafted the player from your undergrad alma mater... can't call it a "hint" as there is nothing on my profile that would give away who my favorite NFL team is.

    Hint 1: if i started out on a highway in my home state and drove in the direction of my target i would end up in a town 197 miles west and... by googles driving speeds(an amusing thought since in the targets state going 65 or 70 is damn slow) 2 hours and 51 min later i'd be in the targets city

    Interesting! Since you chimed in regarding the hint, I guess I'll add that I did not go to undergrad in Michigan...

    Cheers!
