    You should probably leave her there overnight so you are first inline tommorwo and so she can reflect on her poor choices LOL.

    If I were to hazard a guess I would say 200 people? Maybe 250? I can't see how far down the road it goes. Main lot is full and there's about 30 cars in the gravel.

    FWIW, October R&D release: "Golden Ale" w/ brett.

    Also, one more Thumbprint this year: a milk stout.

    any ideas of sold out time? Can I still get some if I'm there by 10:15?

    Good info. Oct release should be similar to Wild Bitter. I'll just pick some up during the week. Is it just a regular milk stout? That is a pretty weak TP.

    I rolled in at 8:30 and got a parking spot up front, got my beers within 10 minutes, talked to a few people and left. I don't see the point of getting in line super early anymore, New Glarus really has the operation and efficiency down pat.

    Got there at 7:45. Left with bottles at 8:30. Amazing how efficient they are.

    I believe so. First time they've done one, AFAIK.

    Just leaving, but it looks like 20-30 2-packs left. Get them quick!
