    Big deal 2 people cut? What entitles one to walk to a front of line when there are 150+ behind them? Please explain. You must have never been told no as a child and are one of these entitled asshats

    Seems like we're due for an inappropriate conversation regarding customer service.

    Actually, this discussion is right on topic and very similar to Andy Crouch's column from this month's BA magazine.

    There's definitely some alcoholics in denial in the craft beer world. People automatically associate alcoholism with AAL's and cheap booze. They tell themselves they're ok because they're enjoying high end beer and it's just a "hobby".

    Didn't realize Martin Shkreli liked craft beer too.

    He did use that Wu Tang album as a beer coaster.

    On his way to paying a million dollars for a 1 bottle release rare beer that nobody will ever be able to try!

    I apologize if this has already been mentioned in this thread but I don't feel like going back through 18 and the previous few months...

    Has anyone else heard anything about a possible Carton/OH collab? I was at Carton on Friday night and one of the people working in the taproom said that they thought it was in works but I'm not sure if they were just blowing smoke up my arse. To be honest, after waiting for three hours yesterday I would probably think twice about going but still curious.

    That would amazing and awesome all at once. One of Carton brewers did brew for OtherHalf I believe.

    Jessie, the original head brewer of Carton left Carton and brewed at Other Half for about a year until he broke ground on his own brewery, Interboro.

    This is a bit off topic but I was looking for some .02 not my own.

    Is it worth adding $10 to my MetroCard and paying $4 more for a 32oz fill of Threes Superfuckingyawn vs. not having to add money to my MC and paying $4 less for the same amount of Green Diamonds? I've never had SFY whereas I've had GD many times (albeit not for awhile) and I enjoy it a lot.

    They are very different IPAs.

    Also don't add any money to your MC and just walk to Threes from OH and try both. It's only about a 20 min walk.

    Thanks for the response but this is simply not an option for me. My thing is they're on tap at two places in Manhattan right now and these are my options/scenarios. Basically, I'm asking if SFY is that good that it's worth the extra money and time it would take for me to get when getting the GD would be easier and cheaper.
