    They already announced the Ram does in fact own the recipes and names

    Isn't that essentially Journey without Steve Perry? We all know how that worked out.

    I bet no line until 10. But at least a dozen people sitting in cars now waiting for the line.

    Wow that's insane. I'm always floored by how many don't have to work during these things.

    Seriously. I would be thrilled if some of this stuff lasts until I get off work, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

    So here is the conundrum.....11 am open is when Chaos/Smore Luv will be tapped, yet no juicy growler fills until 4pm per Shaun's Instagram post. My stance is they put a 1 pour per person cap on Chaos/Smore Luv to ensure it lasts AT LEAST through this evening......thoughts anyone?

    The cap is likely to avoid what happened at the Side Note releases where the first people that got their bottles sat down at the bar right after and ordered 4 pours each of the draft Side Note, such that an hour after opening (and before everyone had even got in the door) it had kicked. I don't know if it lasts until 4, but the limit should give the kegs multiple hours of life at least.

    Shaun just responded on his IG that there are 30 gallons of each Chaos and Smore Luv, with 10oz pours. So doing the math, that's roughly 390 people if each get pours of both. FWIW, he said he doesn't expect it will last until tomorrow.

    If this is right, and people are in line / sitting in cars... those people are fucking morons.

    Either way, I'm gonna take a little extended lunch and go over for a couple pours this afternoon.

    Yep, I'll definitely be up there around 12:15 or so. I'm hoping Juicy lasts at least an hour so I can head up and pick up a growler after work

    It sounds like growler fills start at 4pm

    Thanks for the info. Just saw his post. So you think that both would still be available come say 5pm today, given your math.....hmm...

    To be available still at 5, that'd be around 65 people getting a pour of both per hour, or slightly more than a pour of both per person per minute...

    I'll be over there between 11-12 so I can let you know how heavy things are and how likely those ratios can hold up for you.

    Ya that's why I was saying that I hope it lasts an hour. I'm heading up after work when I get out at 5
