    And for whatever reason, Friday’s draw bigger lines than Saturday’s. Throw in the warmer weather and...

    Agreed. And with both Strawberry and Blueberry versions being so well received, it certainly won’t help keep the line any shorter than the more recent releases.

    Getting there just after open and will report back. The new Marbles post had more social media engagement than pretty much any of their non-Henna posts

    That's actually not that bad. I could head there now if I wanted, I'm right down the street in Oakbrook... Do I want to... is the question. I've spent so much money on beer since September...

    This line is ugly. Probably 125 people. They just posted on Facebook the limit is 1 x 4pk per person. I would not bet on it lasting long.

    Just got here, I have today off. Line is nuts - around the building among the side of their parking lot and basically to the path

    Is the line that long as so many folks have lost their marbles?

    Dont quote me but overhearing chatter in line of 400 4 packs? If so you could theoretically show up by noon and be ok. I was around 200 and got here about 1120

    I am sure a ton of people are still on vacation but it is crazy how many people lined up for a strawberry/banana IPA.

    People lining up for this beer will never not be comical to me.

    Sounds kinda gross anyways. I'll try it on tap later if it lasts. :rofl:
