    that's also the 9/1 release right?

    So, i'm not "about that line lyfe", so should i bother heading to OH from my office in Manhattan around 2:30pm tomorrow (or i guess technically later today, if you want to be a dick about it)? or is it going to be a cluster fuck?

    Are they doing can sales out of the garage or the new taproom? My wife and i will be aiming to arrive around 3/330, and are more interested in hanging out in the taproom and having a few beers than getting the cans. Are the can sales separated from the taproom, or does everything happen in the taproom?

    They start in the garage though it wouldn't surprise me if that changed as the day moved on and things quieted down.

    Teku shmeku. Tulip's the way to go. Lower center of gravity for those with smaller people in the house that are great at spilling things.

    Jeez, I was really hoping early reports of the line were a joke. I get it though, people gotta go when they can (pun intended).

    As an update to the post that leads the thread each month, they now take Amex in the taproom.

    I mean the line was technically started before the glass post went up. People are dumb.
