    If it’s all mules and prospectors, odds are good the draft will last about the same as last time.

    First 250 people in line (ppl that got tickets) get 2pp, rest of line (approx 600ppl in line) get 1pp. That will leave around 80-90 bottle cushion (1000 bottle batch). This is all according to Henna guy that was handing out tickets and walking the line most of morning.

    Those 80-90 bottles will likely all go to people from front of line who will then circle around the back unless you get here in next 10 min.

    I really hate they staggered limits. It just encourages people to lineup earlier and earlier (and since bottle sharing in allowed, drink more).

    I really wish they would have the same for everyone.

    From what I understand, the people near 250 cutoff were there between 5:15-5:30AM.

    I think this is what More wants. More (no pun intended) hype, word of mouth, trade value, etc. From a business perspective its the only reason I can see why they would encourage this.

    Makes me appreciate Pipeworks all the more. I'll take the silent release BA Dojo experience any day of the week. Thats the type of brewery I want to support

    Worth the 5 hour wait on a Saturday morning?

    6AM seems to have been the target hour for many.

    Line is moving much quicker than last time for what it's worth.

    Which, by the fact that every release has a bigger crowd about 90 min earlier, therefore means 430 is the target time for the next release if you want to be in the ticketed group :rolling_eyes:

    If MoRE wants to avoid this, Brown Paper Tickets is going to be the way to go. There were quite a few residents from the neighborhood that seemed quite annoyed by the whole thing and were vocal about. There's only so many complaints the town will take before they finally say 'alright, that's about enough of that.'

    The best part is, you could still show up at 10.45 and get a ticket.

    Well that’s good to know. Did they cut off tickets close to 11am and then issue the 2x line cutoff?
