    My math says ~500 people through the can line last night. Looks like C22 will last into Saturday with a limited supply - maybe enough so they keep the limits at 4pp? Hope they consider dropping the limits on Green tonight so there's a few left for tomorrow... 2pp tonight & tomorrow would make it last through the rush Saturday!

    As currently posted:
    Green - 83 cases @ 4pp (~500 people)
    C22 - 150 cases @ 4pp (~900 people)
    Alter Ego - 8 cases @ 4pp (~50 people)

    Taps:

    C22 (went on last night)
    Green (went on last night)
    Lights On
    Alter Ego (went on last night - I think? Or is this the last batch?)
    Double Shot - Burundi Bukeye
    Eureka w/ Mosaic (w/ Citra on deck)

    Fridays are usually quieter than Thursdays, so if about 500 went thru last night, the odds are decent green will survive tonight even at 4 pp.

    What is the wait like on Wednesdays? What time should I plan to get there for the noon opening?

    The wait is virtually non-existent.

    Wednesday is cans only, so you're in and out in minutes.

    If they are open on Wednesdays, you're typically in and out with cans in minutes.

    Quick trip tonight. In at 7:40 and out at 7:50 with cans and growlers. Sipping on Green right now. This is officially my favorite IPA. Perfect. New cans are awesome too!

    Some friends and I are heading out to Tree House next weekend. Have never been, what time do you suggest being at the brewery so we can have a chance at some cans? I've seen a few posts about how fast everything canned sells out.

    Thanks

    for starters, I'd wait til thurs or fri b4 racking your brain about it as the limits change week to week. no need to plan for something that may change. if they set it up so that a bunch are left though, little over an hr be4 open and you'll be in decent shape in most cases. it'll be a little easier now that it's starting to get cold again.

    I've gone plenty of times in both. never said it won't stop everyone. but some will wait or go later in the day if it's not a breathtaking lineup. even 10 min less is 'easier' if you're cold. never said there's not gonna be a line lol.

    Damn, I wish I grabbed a growler of Traverse last night. I saw it on the board and quickly overlooked it to get my Green & Double Shot. After reading the description, I wanna drink Traverse right now.

    Is Traverse the first lager they've brewed? Have a growler waiting in the fridge.
