    You are probably correct.

    On bringing a bottle to the Tap Room, I havent tried it. Would love to bring a bottle though, have a bunch of random stuff sitting around.

    yes its a $25 ticket -- though be aware of the fact that the police can arrest you if they wish, so it would be advisable not to be an ass if you are getting a ticket.

    I would add that its a common occurrence to see police giving out tickets or walking the line looking for offenders. I feel like I see it most times I am there.

    On a lighter note, Mylar Bags and Nuggets are solid.

    Other Half usually does not allow bottle shares in the tap room on release days. They are much too busy those days. You must ask for permission from the staff before opening anything from the outside in their tap room. You might be able to on a non-release day, if you ask and share with the staff. :slight_smile:

    I was thinking about making a trip to treehouse Friday. Maybe I'll just go to other half. Beer isn't as good but the limits are much better

    Same batch size. Will be about 250 cases per beer.

    Damn. Never had MGN and LOVE Mylar Bags. Afraid I'll have to miss
    this one. Taking an annual run up to Arthur ave in the bx to pick up food for Xmas. Still going to wait in a long line, but for mozzarella!!

    Enjoying a BUTS, seems to have mellowed out a bit, tasting close to what I remember when I had it on tap at Rattle N Hum West just before the release. Seems less boozy than the first cans I had.

    I do love Arthur Ave being born in the Bronx, but live in Brooklyn now and can highly recommend Caputo's Fine Foods on Court Street, for pretty incredible mozzarella, and in walking distance of Other Half. Lovely family business. Bonus: waiting in line should not be an issue.

    This comes up a lot and is mentioned in first post, untappd will show you in real time what people are drinking and frequently people post picture of tap board. Also a great way to see what whalez people are drinking on the line Saturday morning.

    Might be able to find some kcbc or Grimm cans at the Bronx beer hall in the Arthur ave market to make up for missing the OH release

    They need to open earlier than 5pm! At least 3pm would be ideal.

    DDH Forever Simcoe is incredible. I hate myself for not picking up more.

    with more being dropped this week im happy i picked up less this time around

    Wild speculation, but I hope more releases will mean more people will be able to get beer. I understand that the collabs and some of the more well rated stuff will go quickly, but limited fridge space and wallet pains will prevent 1% of people from over buying every week?

    It's too much. I need a group to keep up with all these releases.

    I'll likely do stouts tomorrow and no cans Friday.
