The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

How do you think @dannyfayy and @robgage met??

Also, may or may not be sending to @robgage

 

Hint: your town is famous for its odd take on two foods that don't go together

 

Shipping to one of my previous targets. Which might be @robgage.

 

Hint 5: no tick
Hint 6: ...or have I

 

I have incorrectly predicted Jeff as my sender in multiple BIFs, but today that changes. Calling my shot!!! Jeff is my sender !!

 

My box should go out tomorrow. It will be staying in Big 10 country for the entirety of it’s journey. There will be a follow up box with swag and maybe a growler or two.

 

My target fits all of these too

 

Chili spaghetti?

 

That's the one!

 

Don't forget putting cinnamon in chili!!! That's two!

LBO........

 

Go back to gnawing on your scrapple, old man.

 

Well that takes me out

 

#4 shipping 4 states away
#5 shipping 5 states away
#6 could be shipping 6 states away it all depends on the route taken
Should be shipping tomorrow if I can get my hacked FedEx account cleared up today. Been fighting with them for 3 months now

 

Just curious -- is there any reason you can't just close that account and open a new one?

 

Never thought of that. I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed so I've been told

 

Hint 1 - shipping 2 or more states away but less than 4 states away
Hint 2 - shipping to a state with at least 3 syllables (sorry Mike)
Hint 3 - I joined BA before my target
Hint 4 - my target is also a slacker
Hint 5 - I have ticked that handshake
Hint 6 - my target really likes pastry stouts and haze, so I am going to do my best to load you up with these styles
Hint 7 - I have more Untappd badges than my target

 

Mom's Spaghetti

Shipping to @robgage

 

You had me at Scrapple

LBO...

 

Friday brought the conclusion of the New Tick Parallel traveling box, after a journey that began back in February, 2016. Over the course of 3+ years, this box reached 17 Locals, providing countless "New Ticks", swag, and swap beers. Opening this was pretty cool, seeing how it all came full circle. This last trip was courtesy of @blassor



Stickers from many of the stops across the country, and 4 internal boxes with countless layers of tape.

First up, the Swap Box. This started with 3 bottles from my cellar, and over the years eventually each of those was replaced with new bottles from each participant. The full list of Swap Box bottles is at the end of this post, but here's what ended up on my porch;


Vinosyth Red, ANTEAD, Mocha Wednesday!

Next up is the Secondary Brewery box. Fermentery Form - never heard of these guys, but these look delicious. Wild fermented stuff; Rustic golden ale, Bitter spice beer, Fooz with peaches!

And some extras - Strawberry Milkshake IPA and Coconut Guava Milkshake IPA! More new ticks!



Lastly, the Primary Brewery box. The Referend. I've heard of them, but have never had a chance to try them before. This last leg of the NTP box could not have matched up any better!



Krak! Krek! - Cherries
Nightwood - Aronia & Elderberries
Avond de rode boom - Rhubarb
Gloria - Berliner/Lambic blend
Awesome Referend shirt!

Cheers Brandon! Fantastic box!

Full list of Swap Box beers;
Started - Casey East Bank / Rare Barrel Map of the Sun / Alesmith BA Speedway
Ended - Upland Vinosyth Red / Kane ANTEAD / Bruery Mocha Wednesday
Along the way;
