Tired Hands (November 2016)

Well, something's gotta give. It can't keep on like this.

 

Thoughts on the three beers?

 

Is there a distributor where I can get fresh, off the boat, recently bottled classic/rare German beers? Point me to that line, I wanna stand in that one.

 

Not that I can think of but that is why I head to Victory every now and then.

 

Its not going away. I can 100% promise that. People need to adapt and survive or just not go to releases.. or do what I do, just trade for them. Its very rare I go to a release anymore. My tolerance of the line life is fading.

 

Heist Decoder is fantastic, definitely up there amongst my favorite TH IPAs. The oats have a really strong presence, this one's very creamy. Melon was probably the most prominent fruit flavor I got.

 

I got a case of Bitburger in mid-September that had a canning date of late August. Or is it the rare part that's more appealing to you?

 

My point is that something has to change. I can't imagine Ardmore letting this whole line/chair lineup thing go on week after week with no resoluion or change of how things are done. Yes, people will still stand in line until supply is increased or they are forced to do something about the lines.

 

So when did the cans sell out last night? Did anyone in line get shut out?

 

Someone needs to martyr themselves and test the boundaries of the chair line. Set up a living room, run some extension cords, decorate for Christmas. Play some Behemoth at full blast.

 

The lines are generating income for a bunch of local business I doubt they have much of a gripe with the lines. plus the tickets given out at meters is putting money in ardmore's pocket as well

 

also do you think if there were people in those chairs there would be any less whining about the lines? the whiners would just move on to the next entitled cry baby topic.

 

I was wondering about that with the parking situation and who McDonalds? IHOP? Or by local business you just mean Tired Hands. I think the biggest issue right now is the day of canning, and I'm not just saying that in response to whatever issues they had yesterday but can the day before, post allotments and just be done with it. My biggest gripe with showing up for a Tired Hands line is not knowing if I am even getting anything.

 

But the line life is the universal dream
for those who wish to seem
Those who wish to be
Must put aside the alien church

 

I would assume those two but all the food places in the immediate area. There's always people on line with boxes of pizza or stuff from the Chinese place. Would even guess that video store gets a little bump in business.

 

I got there at 7. shortly after the Monkish kicked. at about 7:20 the HF was gone. probably about 20 allotments of the Inner Edges remained when I scored my 4-pack at about 7:30.

 

Thanks. So it sounds like 6 was the sweet spot to get full allotment with minimal hassle. Maybe even 6:30.

 

it was reported earlier in the thread that 3:45 was the cutoff to get all offerings.

 

Haha, I see what you did there, best post of the thread!

 

This is so passive aggressive i love it.
