    Could use a little guidance. Heading to NYC the 6/8 to 6/10. Would love to stop by OH and have a few in the tap room. From what I’m reading it seems that cans might be availble without waiting in a long line early in the am. Is that true?
    Not looking for anything super limited, but it would be great to take a few 4packs back to Chicago with me.
    Thanks!

    You'll likely be fine. There's a small chance they decide to do something outrageous and have a crazy collab, but even in the crazy collab case, beer has been kind of lasting. You might even luck out and get a weekday release like tomorrow's! Weekday releases generally last to Saturday.

    It's mostly true, but ultimately depends on the release. Check in with us on Monday June 4th, after OH announces what will be released and we'll let you know.

    Pls bring deep dish pizza. Last Chicagoan failed to deliver :stuck_out_tongue:

    Thanks guys. Appreciate the insight and will check in on the 4th. Not sure how deep dish will travel, but I’ll see what I can do

    Uh clearly it travels extremely well considering Gio's et al all ship frozen nationwide

    Given the clear lack of quality pizza in NYC, hope our Chicago visitor goes the extra mile and freezes the pizza, stuffs it in his suitcase for his journey and delivers it to random BA strangers at Other Half.

    I have cousins in Chicago that always ship me a frozen deep dish pizza from Lou Malnati's for my birthday. My birthday is in fact coming up, to which I will use to emphasize: please don't actually bring us a deep dish pizza to Other Half :grin:

    Don't go back on your words now! If @dman127 shows up with a pizza, you have to eat it!

    The only way we can heat it up at Other Half is if we harness the fiery hatred that Other Half has for locals.

    just be sure to tell people it's cheeseless, otherwise you're going to have a line forming at 6AM to get some of that sweet lactose filled cheese.

    If Other Half really appreciated their customers, they'd just put in a pizza oven like Tree House.

    Who needs a whole pizza oven when they can just get a crockpot full of SPICY MEATABALLS (w oats and lactose).

    Hey everyone

    I'm coming to town on a Saturday. What time do I need to be in line to make sure I'm out by 1130?

    Thanks in advance!

    Just wanted to take a moment to point out that nothing was released today and yet you can go to the brewery right now and get 3 different cans of excellent beer.
