    Never gone to the brewery release of KBS, but I remember my friend saying there was bottle sharing in the line of the old system. Is this still the case, or do the ticketed sections make there no need to crack whales to kill time?

    Might be a different story on Saturday, but when I picked mine up on Wednesday around lunchtime, the line was nil. Same story for the Bolt Cutter release, which was a Sunday afternoon for me, if I remember correctly.

    Why is there a line exactly? KBS is supposed to be on all day and there is an all day window to pick up each allocation. Line to sit down at the bar, perhaps? First crack at whatever is tapped?

    Soooo is there a bottle share in line or not? If not, then these people must just be lining up out of habit.

    Well, I just saw Raymo (Shawn) was sipping on a Sang Noir in line at Founders, so I'm guessing that's why there is a line. A good old fashioned, early morning, gonna go piss at Grey Hound bottle share.

    I'd say the line is to get a table / spot inside Founders, get a crack at whatever is first on tap, etc...

    Have fun everyone going out there today, and make sure to give Pasta a nice shoulder rub if you happen to see him.

    Cheers!

    I've been huddling for warmth under a hand-dryer in the Greyhound bathroom since February 11th..... Can someone report the conditions outside?

    My tent kept me pretty warm all night. Hung out with the same homeless guy that was mooching beers off of everyone in line last year.
