    Line still isn't too long. Hasn't grown much since I got here at 4:00. I'll update again when I leave.

    starting to get to that unless it's a shake or some really crazy 3 or 4 can release with some OV etc you can roll up when they open and be ok

    Pretty easy release. Had beers in hand at 5:40. Line doesn't appear super-long, and there's a lot left.

    Cant say I'm surprised by the limits.. lines just aren't what they used to be on a Wednesday.. People just anticipate a new milkshake every Sunday now and wait to spend their money.

    I think you're right I've swore off lines all summer, first time cause I love the lower abv beers. Really wasn't as bad as I assumed it'd be based on the limits. Go ride a bike is the perfect hoppy beer IMO.

    You are right but it seems there is a bunch of unemployed college age kids that make $$ hitting up brewery only can releases and flipping them for profit. Up and down the east coast the high initial cost only seems to help the hype for these beers.

    Still yet to have any TH beers but was wondering how their lager executions are? Been on a Helles/Pilsner kick lately and brewing a bunch as well. Are they anywhere close to Mary/Marie?

    Anyone have the purple lager from earlier this month?

    Honest opinion no, their lagers are not as clean as you'd hope. All I've drank this summer were lagers for the most part and when you consider price definitely not worth it. There are so many other shelf pils and other lagers that are far superior I can get. This is just my opinion but I think other lager lovers would agree. Didn't try the purple lager though.

    I agree with @jonphisher. I have had both the Helles and Pilsner and they are enjoyable beers but there are plenty of other locally brewed Helles and Pilsner beers that I enjoy just as much (and more) and they are significantly less expensive.

    Cheers!

    IMO..You want lager? Drink Yuengling.

    Almost got some HopHands from the general store but the dates were kinda old - I'm blanking on what but definitely over a week maybe two? Too expensive for something that doesn't last that long as it is.

    Good lord, now we're at a point where a week or two is too old?

    Well to be fair they were for a party that I'm hosting in a week and a half. So it'd be even older by then. But everyone on here will tell you that HopHands falls off pretty quickly, much faster than most beers.

    Really surprised it lasted 1-2 weeks! Seemed like previous batches were snatched up in a couple of days.
