    Per Twitter from @drinkcraftbeer, there is already a line of about 30 people at about 10 minutes to 12.

    Thanks Matt, hopefully it moves quick looking to shoot over sometime between 1-2 hopefully it will calm down by then.

    You're welcome Mike. I figure those in line are there on their lunch break and are there for the bottles and not growlers so it should move fairly quickly after the initial rush. Good luck.

    I went there around 2:30 last week and there were like 4 other people so it is hit or miss.

    My girlfriend works across the street, but can't get down there until 4... I may be out of luck.

    I doubt you'll be out of luck. the hardcore people are there now but I doubt it's 400 of them. also a long line there can mean 10 people, it's a tiny place

    Good to know thanks! I've never been in there since she's so close.

    Do people need to wait in line if they just want a growler fill?

    I can't see the bottle hounds letting you cut in line for a fill. I was born a skeptic though.

    If people in front of you are just buying bottles, the line should move quick. If they're also getting growler fills...well...there are more people in front of you waiting for growler fills.

    I was down there at lunch. The initial line was long (~50 people) but it was only about 15-20 people when I left. Esther was serving the people who wanted bottles only from the stairs and letting people flow in who wanted growlers. People shouldn't have trouble getting bottles after work. Even if there's another 100 people that flow through this afternoon thats only maybe half the allotment. Pretty excited to try this one though. Cheers

    This. Just left, 10-12 people in line, folks could grab bottles only if they wanted to.

    I think I'm going to call on my way back to see. I'd hate to get off the highway on the way home and get shut out

    It sounds like they still have plenty. a Twitter or facebook update would be awesome, but I bet they are pretty busy there right now so understandable that they haven't.

    Ask and ye shall receive. They just posted that about half remains (aprox 400 bottles). So you should be good.
