    Interesting, didn't know that, thanks!
    I was in Cali last weekend and found a shop that had several Eclipse for $23 (if you bought 4, $26 otherwise). Thought it was a good deal - two friends and I got the Vanilla Java, Four Roses, Evan Williams 23 and Elijah Craig 12.

    Masterpiece was bottle, not announced, no bottle limit, half the people were in line for something else, while some lucky others bought out the masterpiece, I think is about how the story goes.

    Eclipse sells out in seconds around here, I missed EC 12 and Java, but found 1 four roses. I was going to put the High West in my targets box but from this discussion maybe I shouldn't.

    Ok wasn't sure just going from memory, internet bitching on forums from people who didn't get any.

    If you haven't eliminated me yet (which you should have) I am not sending to @Mipper

    As for the Masterpiece @Dicers I also had heard that there was no limit and 1 individual bought 70 bottles at $45 a pop... There was a thread on here somewhere talking about it.

    Hint #1: I'm shipping North of Mt. Mitchell.
    Hint #2: Shipping east of the Grand Canyon.
    Hint #3: Route 66 travels through my targets state.
    Hint #4: Not shipping to The 13 Colonies.
    Hint #5: I not traded with my target.
    Hint #6: Not shipping to the 46th state.
    Hint #7: Targets state does not contain the letter 'E'.
    Hint #8: Target state has >=5 bordering states.
    Hint #9: My target has not posted in this thread since Saturday.

    Tampa Bay Beer Week is next week, hoping to get some brewery only releases for my target.

    To my SENDER, I recently updated my wants. If in doubt, read my profile for my favorite styles, etc.

    Just to clarify that any Eclipse Java bought at a store (whole lavender wax) is not the same as Vanilla Java which is lavender wax with white wax directly on top of the cap. The Vanilla Java were futures only in 2014, first time bottled.

    I feel like those who don't participate that much should get lesser boxes lol

    Or another way to look at it could be that those posting very frequently are required to send extra beer, to make up for forcing the rest of us to wade through a seemingly endless stream of often only-marginally-related posts. :grinning:

    Hey!! I resemble that remark!! And I am ok with my sentence. Good for my target I think....... that I post marginally.........

    But is anyone else spelling out their hints??

    Idk, but I tried to decipher your cryptic riddle and since you said it points directly to someone and I am confident it does not relate to me, I'm no doubt ruling you out as my sender. Such a shame.

    If you did, that is indeed a shame. :wink: Not saying you are or aren't but the last 4 hints are important...........and do point directly. But with a twist!

    I am sure (hopeful) that we will have an opportunity to exchange boxes in the future.

    Indeed. I know both you and (not that he's in this round) @PA-Michigander reached out to me to try and set something up a while back but I've slacked hard on my end. Apologies to both of you gents. Let me get through sending off my recent 'gambling' payouts and this round here and I'll get on with establishing a semi-regular thing with y'all. Cheers!
