    Pretty bad. I went several years ago and vowed to never come back for it. Hopefully they've changed some things around since then. At that time, they were letting people stay inside as long as they wanted (which could be for hours) and the line would barely move since the capacity in that place is pretty low. I could only imagine more of a crowd now as it's popularity continues to grow.

    Haven did have parabajava. The firestone dinner was off the chain. Pours of Parabajava after were about $9. I'm sure they'll have some tomorrow left as they put it on close to 9-9:30

    Crowbar will announce a couple days ahead of time. They make you go early and get a ticket then come back later for the pour. Same with tustin. lines are generally long at both places.

    Keep an eye on pizza ports social media. They typically pick a random week night to tap it.

    2 years ago I went around 5pm and we waited maybe 20 minutes. We went on a lark just to see how bad it was, but there were only a few people in line so we jumped in.

    Hopslam seems to be hitting distro at some TW's, this was at TotalWine Brea.

    Seems pricey but about $7 per 24oz, ain't bad. Time to see if all the hype is worth it.

    Folks - Hopslam is hitting distro in LA. Enjoy it if you want to, pass on it if not. Easy.
