    Well, their last East Coast collaboration IPA was disastrously bad.

    Which? I know First Things First and JFK2LAX were supposed to be great.

    Never & Again was received awfully.

    I had their collab with Veil (Joooseee Boizzz) and thought it was terrible as well.

    Yeah, the Trillium (Never & Again) -- it was tough to drink.

    (Here's to hoping this one is more like their last OH collab IPA and less like their Trillium one.)

    I was at Monkish this summer, had two of their IPAs, one was pretty good, the other I wouldn't drink again. I realize they make a lot more than that, but the hype out there makes the hype here on East Coast look like a quiet library.

    Happened to be in LA for thanksgiving and had Haazee Guizz (Monkish + The Veil) and thought it was excellent, for what it's worth.

    I'd be more worried about my Friday night. I can't imagine these bottles lasting through much of the (probably ridiculously long) line.

    Just announced In Absentia Luci aged in bourbon barrels with vanilla. 6/pp.

    I have serious questions for anyone that maxes out at this release.

    Oh god. Now I legitimately need to make plans on how to carry this release home.

    I'll probably do a case of the Monkish collab and 2 of each bottle.

    I might be alone here but im super happy to see six different beers. My thinking is this will spread things out among people with very few maxing out on one thing and hopefully cause everything to last a little longer.

    Agreed. Also I have to believe that they have a ton of the collab, at least 500+ cases or it wouldn't be a case limit. it's been quite a while since they had a release that sold out before 11am, I'm trusting they know what they are doing and people showing up at 8-9 am aren't missing it. stacks and forever might make it to Sunday.

    Slightly disagree. I think the one exception to this is the Monkish collab. I'm not too sure how a bunch of BA imperial stouts are going to put a stick in the spokes of people gunning for that beer, especially when you consider that Other Half isn't exactly acclaimed for their stouts.

    I hope you are right because I want all of the stouts.

    This will probably be the biggest shit show of all their releases so far..line will probably be around to Garnett by 8am..and that's a conservative estimate..will be easier trading for this and skipping a 6 am wakeup..avoid this like the plague..
