    Updates from Half Time:
    1. Packages beginning shipping this week (week of Jan. 11).
    2. Tracking numbers will generate and be emailed to customers based on when regional carriers are in receipt of the packages themselves.
    3. Customers who have asked to pick up their packages at our stores will be notified once they are ready for pickup.
    Jan. 19 Updates:
    • As of this morning, Half Time has shipped out all but about 200 boxes. And those get picked up by UPS today.
    • If you haven't received tracking info via email, please email Half Time. For some states the tracking info just hasn’t generated yet, but it will over the coming days as individual carriers receive the packages (they've already been processed through a central warehouse in Missouri, so all carriers will receive in-state throughout the week).
    • They are expecting deliveries to occur as follows: (carrier listed in parenthesis)
      • NY, NH, PA, VA, DC (UPS) – today through Thursday
      • MA, RI, DE (GIO) – end of this week, early next week
      • CT, NJ (CDL) – end of this week, early next week
      • FL (SONIC) – next week
      • OH (PDI/Priority Dispatch) – early next week
      • IN, IL, WI (UDS) – current through Thursday
      • TX, OK, LA (LSO) – end of this week, early next week
      • CO, ID (WPL) – next week
      • ND, NE, NV, OR, AK (also UPS) – throughout this week
      • CA, AZ, WA, NM (GSO) – current through end of week

    Hi Todd, just emailed [email protected] because I contacted Half Time on 1/2 to coordinate an in-person pickup at the Mamaroneck location but still have not heard back. Any updates on this?

    From the above update: "Customers who have asked to pick up their packages at our stores will be notified once they are ready for pickup." But we'll check in with Half Time too.

    Lol. Didn’t pull any out of the box because I didn’t want to be tempted. Thought about putting the Other Half and Hazy O in the fridge, but then I’ve got to look at them every day.

    Never got any sort of shipping notification, but box arrived today. Luckily I was home at the time. May want to check on emails from Half Time.

    I'll definitely bring this to their attention.

    Everyone should also check their spam folder, adjust their email filters, or add emails from BeerAdvocate and Half Time to their allowlist. Some of our emails didn't get through because of this.

    I’m getting their emails for deals to purchase but never got any shipping emails. Not in spam either. Have not all shipped yet?

    2017 which is of course the only vintage I have ever had . Still a good beer though.

    Sam recently told me that Olde School Barleywine is on hiatus and won't be be making an appearance in 2021, so I'll be stoked with whatever vintage I get.

    Mine just arrived as a surprise delivery as well. Though working from home makes that not a serious issue in this case!

    Ive received notice that my brother's box sent to PA is en route via UPS, but no communication about my package coming to Connecticut. I do get BA emails in my inbox and also get promotionals from HalfTime in my inbox. Im home but would like to know when I should be looking!

    Im hoping for an older vintage of olde school, that 2012 @thebeers above sounds nice!

    I live in northern NJ and haven't received any notification about when my package will be mailed. Is that a problem?
