    At 1 pp I really hope I can snag a bottle of the stouts after work. I think OH is expecting Potato/Triangles levels of craziness, but who knows...

    There will be a line for sure, given the VIP pickups and Trillium collab, but there should be plenty of beer.

    Triangles was easy, I walked in an out in 5min at 11:30, the sweet spot for Saturdays... I have no clue how to time this though.

    The only midweek I remember being even remotely crazy and selling out fast was the last Snowbirds/Florida Plates release

    And, while the holiday makes it a bit different, the Tuesday DMD/Go With the Flow drop before Thanksgiving.

    I'd feel much worse about this release if it was on Friday, but we'll see soon!

    Wouldn't rush hour traffic/not wanting to troop to Brooklyn on a work day keep a good amount of people away - particularly with limits so drastically lower than normal keeping mules/resellers away? Or am I deluding myself because of the Triullim collab and Snowbirds?

    I'm mentally committed to going and can definitely get there before 5, but I also deal with lines really poorly...

    Yeah, as much as midweek drops are usually chill, the Trillium collab plus J Wakefield bottle leads me to believe that it will be pretty crazy - I would even think up to wristband levels.

    Which is the rational thought, that people might be deterred or the possible self delusion?

    If we go by the Instagram Like Correlates to Hype Theory, then 3200 isn't crazy high

    If it was going to be super crazy, there should be a line starting now/soon right? The early rain may have deterred that but it’s nice out now.

    Yeah, I think there will be a moderate line by then. But the earlier you get there, the longer you're standing around waiting anyway, probably next to the guys drinking 10 percent pastry stouts since noon.

    Stop being an economist. Hazebros are not rational.

    The idea of driving to Gowanus on the Belt Pkwy and BQE during rush hour completely deterred any idea of going to this release.

    I'll be there around 4 to post an update, but I still suspect the beer will outlast the line.
