    (I hope I am wrong on the above guess though...I really wanted to try some, but not heading out there any time soon.)

    20% is a really high estimate for people lining up a second time. I would guess 5%.

    Well I hope you're right. With a 1pp limit on everything, I'm thinking a lot more people than usual will double-dip.

    I doubt there are 100 people behind me. I have the feeling you can show up at 12:30 and walk out with cans, but I don't normally come for lines so I'm not an authority.

    I'll be in the area today so was hoping to make a stop over there but won't be there until about 2:00-2:30ish. Not looking too good for cans by the sounds of it. I guess at the very least I can go in and try some on tap

    If people get back in line they are jerks. Don't hoard, spread the wealth....

    Heres the beer couldnt justify the $12 glass. Will actually be drinking these beers today will be back with confirmation of quality probably wont crack the red wine.

    Bourbon was really nice. Growler line is insane slow.... hasn't moved much since I have been here

    They are checking for people going through the line more than once and already caught some...they got banned for life.

    For posterity for future releases:
    Got there about 850 for an 11am release, ended up on cricket Ave in between the parking lot entrances. Went and did a count and was between 150 and 175 in line. Checked out with beer at 1140 or so.

    Arrived at 8am. I was towards the end of the lot but I'm glad I arrived when I did. Everything went smooth and ended up going to the cafe for a growler of BBOV. The beer is fantastic. Delicious caramel, dark fruits, and chocolate. Strong bourbon barrel flavor without being overwhelming. All in all a fantastic day.

    I have now drank both only void cans and enjoyed them both. Are they overpriced yes. Did they change my life no but I did enjoy them and honestly standing in line on this beautiful day for 2 hours total was not life ending. Hope some people enjoy these tasty beers instead of running around trading them like the losers I witnessed today.

    Just grabbed the last coffee. A few pallets of regular only void left. Plenty of bottles left

    I think they said 3pm the leftovers would move behind the bar? Sounds like just the red wine made it.

    Edit: sounds like a small bit of regular OV made it back too.

    Got there around 2:50ish. Line was maybe 5-10 people max. Pretty sure they cut it off a few people behind me so they could move the rest to the bar.

    Decent sized line (looks to be moving slow) for growlers.
