    In general, I think their output is so small right now that there's enough people working out there to snag all these up when you have a case limit.

    Also, since they release on Friday, that helps. A few dynamics at play there. First, suburbanites who commute to the city work from home at pretty impressive rates on Friday. My parking spot is always closer to the train compared to any other day of the week (I live in Elmhurst work downtown). 2nd, people are far more apt to go to bar-food type lunch on Friday - a place like More is much more crowded.

    But mostly, they are just small enough that the demand is easily met by the suburbs surrounding them.

    I can say that the women on the Brown Line [insert joke here] are at least better than on the Metra. So there’s that.

    Now this is something we need Dave Savini and Pam Zekman to investigate. Are you willing to wear a wire? Oh, and a conspicuous GoPro camera?

    Well, the brown line is pretty much as good as it gets. I’ll ride it once a month or so and am amazed how nice it is - it’s like taking a limo. A lot of us spend 30-60 minutes a day on the red line, which is like taking a 20 year old rental car. You may have been gone in less than 3 years if you had to do the red line daily!

    On another note, I got a small taste of Rejuiced this evening at a share. Aroma was awesome. Taste was fine. Good beer that I’d like to have...but won’t apparently.

    I’m going to unfollow this thread... the words “hype”, “mule”, and “neckbeard” have appeared too much

    Salty and entitled nerds need to get a grip

    I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess you don’t have kids! Believe me if there was any possible way I could still live two blocks from wrigley field, I would.

    Can you imagine if MORE was in the city and not villa park? Releases wouldn’t last 15 minutes

    Maybe I was thinking about he stout thread or the BCBS thread? “Neckbeard” tends to be used around a stout release
