    Sadly there are a lot of guys like this in the OH lines and in the craft beer scene overall.

    Line cutters at other half? I don't believe it.

    Did they do bracelets?? The times I have been where they do bracelets I saw people cut and get beer. Never understood the point of giving out the bracelets and then not bothering checking to see if people have it

    Line is about halfway down garnet still. Sounds like everyone will get the collab.

    Stouts will start selling out soon though.

    A bunch of variants are coming in the next 6 weeks including some in a midweek release

    No bracelets today. Agree that it was pointless at LW.

    Anyone ask what the next release will be? (besides the midweek stouts)

    Handmade stools made from reclaimed wood might though. We need to remain vigilant

    For those wondering about the line, it's worth noting that Jesus may come back before you reach the front of it.

    Honestly doubtful on the collab if you aren't in line at this point since be my guess.

    Drove by at 11, literally drove by. At 11am the line was still half way up Garnett. Unreal. Worst I have ever seen. If your on the fence, I wouldn't bother. In other news Interboro is nice and chill, no line.

    Yeah I'm headed there. Sounds like the smug roll-up-looking-rested-at-noon technique isn't an option at OH today

    OH NO. Took G to Smith 9th, saw the line, got right back on the train in the other direction. I'm done with shit shows. Off to Greenpoint.

    Fyi, if you are just getting here or are on your way... I just got here 10 mins ago and am 3rd to last in line. Andrew just said he expects that everything will be sold out by the time we get there except stacks and forever.

    Will be at Interboro in 15 minutes. looking forward to picking up arguably the best beer in brooklyn right now and waiting on no line. its a shame, for guys who only want a 4 pack or 2. its not worth waiting on an OH line like the one today. they need to adopt a better system.

    say what you will about people who line up god awful in the am, but a buddy of mine who hangs w that front of line crew usually advised me to get there before 4am which we did...in fact got there at 330. about 20 ppl in front of us, didn't bottle share but saw cops come around a few times and hand out tickets to others sharing. had 2 pours of some stuff I couldn't pass up (new bottle logic imp red ale and red wine cake) but other than that no drinking, the time flew by and mission accomplished...which was to be home by 11. I know everyone is sour grapes about the line and crowds and hype, but if you go early enough it can actually be a pleasant experience. for a release like this you are gonna have to put in the hrs, up to you if you want to do it in the early morning and get everything or do it mid morning and get shut out and watch ppl cut.
