    What would you guys say is an ideal target for number of Wants to get. I don't want to disappoint.

    I'm HORRIBLE at keeping secrets or surprises...My target is going to find out sooner rather than later.

    As many as you can.
    What you can't hit with wants, fill in with good stuff that either local or out of distro for your target.
    If you can't come up with wants, decide what they should have wanted that you can get and ship that. I always enjoy getting turned onto new breweries that maybe I've never heard of but that are putting out good stuff.

    Agreed. I try to get as many wants as I can out of the way then focus on ounces. Since the minimum is 144ounces I'm shooting for at least double that. Granted 144 oz stouts then 144oz of other goodies...

    Hint, my target is gonna need to make friends with a chiropractor after I'm done. I can probably hit mostly wants and a few he may not know about

    Hint #1: I have never shipped to, or received beer from my target.
    Hint #2: I have been to my targets state once, for 45 minutes in 1991 while changing planes. From what I remember, it was nice.

    To my sender: Sorry that my wants list is kind of a mess right now. Just finished up a Sours BIF, and still have remnants from the first round of this Stout BIF. I know it's a bit "whalish". Just have to take the time to find regional goodies to add.
