    I’m gonna go on a limb and say with those allotments there is zero need to wait and this will last till 8.

    Yeah huge allottments so I'm going to say it lasts until 8 or so. Nice midweek release, I like it.

    Quite a long line though. Longest since the anniversary. Thinking Technicolor and Brad Clark won’t last the line. Shakes should still be around at 8.

    I'm beginning to wonder if they aren't evolving from an "everybody come stand in line for cans!" model, to a "hey we have cans for a few days now, come down to the Fermentaria any time and buy some other shit while you're at it!" model.

    I hope everything is there in the 8 oclock hour as from the last count I saw there were still less than 300 chairs in line. They had to extend the line due to the fact that the Athens Apartments new owners banned chairs in front of their building.

    There is also still Ergot left if that tells you anything about the pricing.

    Pretty crazy how much is left over. Guess the price and potential long lines scared people away.... anyone try the new beers?

    Was going to stay and try some on tap but it took me 20-25 minutes in line so I wanted to bail.

    That and the allotments were small which is always cool. I went at like 8 and had no line.

    Had the new shake. It’s alright. Not worth an additional $.50 :grin:
    In all seriousness, it’s nothing mind blowing. The fact that rustic pentagram is still on tap though is mind blowing.

    Yeah its not bad but vanilla is still definitely my favorite. I picked up a 4 pack of technicolor too, I think thats one of their best IPAs honestly.

    Nothing sold out last night. Honestly, if someone told me a year ago that we'd have a shake and a Monkish collab release not sell out within 3 hours, I wouldn't believe them.

    I bet it will continue to slow down as more people realize and/or rerealize how much good beer is available locally and a much lower cost. That’s what I think at least, tired hands beer is great but I think more people are seeing the need not to go. I’m sure they’ll still not have trouble selling out within a few days though, it will be much easier and nicer for people.

    Yeah, sorry to talk about something other than Shakes/prices, but wow this run of Rustic Pentagram was my first time trying it and that beer is incredible... favorite I've had from Tired Hands in a good while.
