    Not trying to be a dick but I really just don't get the desire to stand on a line that long. Especially after the way things went last Saturday at the brewery. Two great beers in cans, several bottles, no line at all. Last weekend I drive to OH, Threes, Interboro and Greenpoint, got cans at every place, no lines at any place. Now compare that to this morning. What makes the Anniversary beer that much line-worthy than the Mosaic-Motueka?

    My guess is that it is a one-time only beer which increases the FOMO and perceived trade value. Guessing a high percentage of cans are traded instead of consumed.

    I try my best to never wait in line but I have somewhere to be at 1pm today back on LI and had to come early. Just got in line. I suspect I will be here long as fuck. I'm the last person in line with an Islanders hat on. Feel free to say hello, if I havent insulted you in the past.

    I think that case count was for the anniversary beer.

    I'm pretty sure OH was line free last week because of the march, and everyone went to LIC.

    (Or because there were two beers that nobody was really excited about.)

    Looking like waiting is OK for 3rd anniversary. Based on @AOTP's post, collab could be gone before the current line is out.

    Based off of the pour I had in the tap room, the 3rd anniversary beer is pretty green and a bit hot. I think it needs a week to mellow out a bit.

    They just came through the line informing everyone not at the front of the line that Nuggy will be sold out.

    I'm halfway down Centre right now and was just told the collab will run out before I get to the front. FYI
