    I'm driving through Saturday and plan to place an online order for curbside pick up. Sadly, I don't have time to truly enjoy Other Half for all it has to offer.
    What kind of crowd / wait can I expect when it opens at 10 a.m.? Any other insight / tips would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Cheers!

    i would think at 10 am you will be on your way in minutes, my only tip is sometimes they have beers for sale that are not listed online, does not hurt to ask

    For online ordering, pretty much anytime you'll only have a wait of a few minutes at most. At open, you should be able to walk right in and have someone grab your oder for you.

    If you have an extra minute, you can go to the bar/window and order singles. Not a bad way to try a few things you might not have picked up in 4-packs.

    This time of year you can be outta there in 45 seconds.

    I know you said you don’t have time, but they do everything in 5oz pours (in addition to 12 or 16 depending) so even with 10 minutes you could try a few things.

    This is where you tell the wife, "Beer Advocate says it'll only take 15 minutes," then go in and toss back two short pours, grab your cans, and be back in 10. You'll be a hero.
