The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

Well I only eliminated you because you sent to me in the summer sixer round....if that was a bad assumption, then technically you could be my sender...

 

So yesterday got the call, There is a box here…. Funny cause I had @Tee2Grn as one of my possible senders, his comment about the Governor and football coach put me off the track cause, who looks like Chris Christy?

Zingermans Brownie, how did you know my favorite deli in Ann Arbor?? Actually I will be in Ann Arbor this week, and Zingermans is always on our agenda for lunch or dinner at the roadhouse.

Thanks @Tee2Grn for the great box, can't wait for a little later in the day to crack that growler.

Last hint for my target, boxes will arrive on Monday (according to UPS), the city is named after our 4th President. I just pray the glassware arrived in one piece, if not Ill ship something direct from the brewery. Im nervous about shipping glassware in boxes with beer.

 

I am absolutely clueless to who my sender is lol

 

You're not the only one, i guess I'm going to have to start tracking other peoples senders to narrow down my list.

 

Early favorite for best local treat (if we do this again, and I am @Tee2Grn 's target, I better get a Reuben)

And the Chris Christie twin is Brady Hoke from Michigan.

 

You and me both! I still have 13 possibles ...

 

Glad everything made it safe. Zingermans is awesome and worth every penny. If you're going to be in A2 and have a little time you should head up to Witchs Hat. It's inly about a 15 minute drive and they have a couple BA beers on right now including their Night Fury with vanilla which is fantastic. Jolly Pumpkin also just opened a tap room in Dexter called Null. I haven't been there but it looks awesome.

 

I'll throw in some pimento cheese with that Reuben because that stuff is like crack

 

Wont have a car this trip, but pretty much Im in AA only once a year now, a few years ago when I had a corporate job, use to be there twice a year and always in January, do you know how to make a bunch of corporate happy, force them to Michigan in the winter.

 

Haha mike, no i did not go out at 12 to get moohoo, its the picture off the bottle shops facebook. Sprayberry bottlshop

 

I'll help you out.

Hint# 7(?) : my target's state has multiple participants in this round.

 

Did @mklisz participate in the summer sixer and I missed you? If not, you'll need to go re-read my hints

 

Hint #7: My alma mater has historically done poorly against a certain in conference opponent in basketball (and football to some extent), even when we shouldn't have. It doesn't matter as much now as that opponent has left our conference now. My target is not from the same state as that school.

 

So, just went through all my hints. I think I have my target down to 3 choices based on my hints.

 

Holy Christ!!! FedEx driver just limped back to his truck. @Ncpogs just smashed the hell out of front porch. Will follow up with pron, also probably would be an "intoxicating" weekend if I was feeling better.

 

That is hilarious! Do you know Brij? I follow his IG account - BBEERGURU, small world...

And he's got an awesome bottle shop! Always showcasing some awesome stuff.

 

Now I have to go back and reread all of my notes. I left my master spreadsheet at work Need to start backing up important documents like that to the cloud...

Unrelated note, I'm headed to the Chicago Beer Hoptacular shortly and will most definitely be out of commission the rest of the day. Wanted to wish @edhizdeid the best of luck in tomorrow's marathon!

 

I wasn't part of the summer sixer.

 

Then you may want to re-read my third hint

 

Yep totally missed that one. I'm bad at this game.
