    I really like not having to wait 5 hours for a growler fill of Street Green. So goooood.

    What are everyone's expectations for tomorrow? Busy but not awful? New single hop means it'll be busy, but Showers is far less popular than AGE (stupid people, I much prefer Showers). I'll be arriving before noon, and hoping to get my fill of Simcoe, Showers, and a fill of Street Green. We shall see if I get that growler, but the other two I 100% believe I'll be okay for before 2pm.

    Had a couple of glasses of Street Green at OMH last night. Fantastic beer. It had Trillium written all over it.

    Line is pretty much exactly what I expected it to be. Typical for Other Half's regular releases.

    I feel like it's worse than "normal" but normal might be changing.

    Amazing these releases draw crowds every single time. It's like there is no other beer in tristate area.

    It's definitely changing. One day soon walking up at noon will be too late

    Yeah the only way for me to get these is do early morning since Saturday afternoons don't work for me.

    Agreed, especially since a new batch of Mo' Shuggie bottles are out and will be easy to get around NYC and LI.

    Interesting, I think is much more OH than Trillium. Regardless is a fantastic beer. Not sure if I like it or Greenbacks more.

    What a drag. I love other half, but the street green release was a real bummer. Glad I'm local and can still dip in for growler fills on normal days.

    No wait for cans just got here at 11:25 already done. Also a whole pallet of simcoe left.

    I just got home from getting cans, definitely back to normal for release days as far as the line/turn out goes. I got one of the new t-shirts and didn't notice they gave me the wrong size until I got home. Has this happened to anyone else? I'm hoping they'll let me exchange it for the right size next time I go, but that probably won't be for another week or two. Slight bummer considering it was $25 and it's two sizes too big.

    Also confirming: lots of cans and no line. Glad things are back to the norm.
