    Having only been to the last 2 chill releases in and out at noon, what would it be like if I had to wait in line alone and showed up tomorrow at ~730-8AM? Should I bring a lawn chair? Will it be lame, long, and lonely?

    depends on who youre around, but a chair is not a terrible idea... if you are able to carry that and your beer back.

    Bring an umbrella! And yes a chair wouldn't hurt either.

    Just got here. About 50 feet from the corner already, but pretty spread out.

    Not saying don't come, but expect to wait. Also wouldn't be surprised if OH dropped the limits based on the turn out.

    You'll be out in time. If you get here at 7 I see you being out around 12/1230. Just depends how quickly it moves

    Other Half makes good beer but not wait in line for 6 hours good. This is crazy.

    Got here at 630 and I'm between centre and garnet. Totally insane that 3.5 hours ahead of opening isn't even early now

    What if OH didn't announce the release until day of? Would that hurt or help with the lines?
