    Was in line and headed out after cans. Asked for you when first in line and one of the servers said you were super busy and in the back.

    It did seem a bit more crowded than the radio swan release, but surprised it is going that quick! Glad I was there early to pick up some 4 packs. Hope this fairly regular schedule of releases keeps happening.

    Quite the turnout. Sold out in under an hour.

    Smooth release once again! Nice job.

    Got there around 5:45, already a line about as deep as one side of the bar. Bar was completely full, a lot of occupied tables. By 6pm when they started selling the cans the line was already wrapped around the bar and by the time I left it was reaching towards the front entrance. Definitely the hype is rising! and definitely well deserved! Smooth and easy line, transaction, in and out for me. Sorry @KrajDoesBeer I was in a bit of a hurry and I imagine you were super busy, didn't get a chance to say what's up.

    Congrats to Forbidden Root and @BJP on another successful and smooth release! Awesome! Cans look great! Can't wait to try them!

    Sitting at the bar. Sad to hear there's issues with Snoochie on tap. We managed to get a pour and it's delicious. Hope they work it out so I can order another pour!

    Next question: if this stuff is selling out instantly, does it continue to see distro?

    I'm really easy to find in a craft beer crowd. I'm an overweight white guy with a beard.
