    So people are going to wait in longer lines to get beer that they can then hope to use to get another beer?

    Taters tekus tomorrow.

    And here I was thinking that the talk of the line being worse than any other non-collab release was overblown.

    My lord, this is just comical at this point... Releasing a teku for a one-off beer that dropped four weeks ago? Don't know who I'm more disappointed in rn--OH for milking this so damn hard or the glassware hoarders who will pay 3x markup to complete their "sets". Smdh

    I know this has been talked about already but besides resellers, I just don't understand the craze about these tekus

    Is that solely an OH thing? People don't usually care much about Tree House or Trill glassware.

    Well, I dunno if you were around for July's thread, but I'd like to draw attention to, "We have a small amount of Taters Tekus available tomorrow at 10am." OH could release these whenever and they'd sell out just fine. Instead, they're parlaying limited edition, highly sought glassware with a release to fuel the hype machine.

    It's also just as reasonable to say that by announcing and selling them tomorrow, they're making the glasses available to the people that bought cans of taters and their biggest retail following, as well as not "surprising" anybody by dropping a limited edition item on a random weekday.

    I wish they'd just stop with gimmicky glasses but I get why they won't.

    Just when I thought it would be a nice chill release. These tekus are so freakin dumb now and such a cash grab

    Tremendous Ideas just isn't my thing. I'm mostly getting oats and booze and not much else. I missed out on Imaginary greenscapes and now I don't feel so bad about it.

    I was actually considering getting there around 9:00 just to grab DDH Galaxy and Enigma+Galaxy but something tells me that it'll be too late.

    DDH All Citra Everything is the truth. What a great beer. I wish I could get this beer more often and more than one can. Delicious.

    As much as I abhor some parts of the beer culture that has inflicted OH, if people are stupid enough to spend tons of $$ on glasses, if I was OH I would gladly take their money. But definitely understand the opinions here.

    Sure, just give them a separate line than the one for those of us that want beer!

    With that said, I'll probably have to max on my 2 glasses.

    It's proper glassware for the twice baked potatoes who will hoard them in hopes of landing a can of Juice Machine

    Wonder if that torrential rain kept the 4AM line crew away. Sadly, probabaly not.

    EDIT: There are some check ins already.
