    I'm in a towel. I'm about to go downstairs after dressing and pick up this box. I'll update again in about fifteen minutes.

    I lied. Thirty minutes. Whatever.

    Awesome box from @JNForsyth!

    [​IMG]
    Thrilled to see a permawant: Nugget Nectar (no joke I just packed up - this morning - my last can from the fourpack I traded for, wistfully, to go to someone else. Thrilled to replenish the supply instantly!), and three shoulda-been-wants: Double Duckpin (also I love duckpin bowling. So fun. So wacky.), Paideia (have heard great things about Saint Boniface), and possibly most exciting, BA Flying Mouflan (Love Troegs and everything they do. This one will be very much enjoyed. Looks amazing.)

    Oh and another hint: I'm sending out a warning shot of my own this morning. That's the box I just packed up. And for the hint part: your state starts with the letter "C".

    Down to 6 from 6 different states.

    FL
    WI
    PA
    CT
    TX
    NC

    Some heavy hitters on that list!

    Once I cross off one more I'll begin adding wants from the remaining states in earnest.

    So, what did you think of it? I have heard a few mixed reviews and really curious since I have a couple bottles on their way to me.

    Halfway through it now and really enjoying it, especially as it warms. Lots of milk chocolate and barrel notes with a roasted coffee undertone.

    I can't believe how far away we are with the shipping window, my target doesn't seem to be on to me yet. I would love to ship some of the beer early but without any approval from my target, I don't want to upset anyone. I have no clue who my sender is, I have 20+ possible people on my list and haven't had time to read through the last few pages. Winter storm hit hard this week, no rest for me.

    Down to 9 possible senders.

    2 from IL
    1 from MI
    1 from TX
    1 from WA
    1 from CA
    1 from CT
    1 from DE
    1 from WI

    I think I solved @Mipper 's puzzle but it doesn't apply to me (and he is shipping west - which I think I would 'technically' be to his west - but a ton more south!)

    Hint, and a reminder to my potential targets: My target has not Liked this post as of right now.

    If you are ok with receiving a package next week, PLEASE Like this quoted post so I know I don't have to sit on a growler for a few weeks.

    @LehighAce06 I liked your post even though I know you are not my sender. Just want my actual sender to see that sending early is fair game for me.

    Hint 1: shipping north!
    Hint 2: My target has been on BA longer than I have (according to the date below their avatar/location)
    Hint 3: My target has more BA points than me as of this post.
    Hint 4: My target does not have a beer related avatar
    Hint 5: My target's state is home to a NCAA Football team that has lost to my UCF Knights at least once in the past 5 seasons.
    Hint 6: My target has more posts in this thread than me.
    Hint 7: My target has more likes than me (as of this posting)
    Hint 8: My target does not reside in the Pacific Time Zone.
    Hint 9: My target does not have a number in their name.
    Hint 10: My target's state doesn't have one of USA Today's New Seven Wonders of the World in it
