    Smooth as could be. In and out in under 5 minutes. Got my 4pks and a Porter. Still plenty left.

    Super smooth release (to echo the others). I got there around 11:45 and was out by 12:00 after getting 2 Irregular Coffee 4pks, a 4 pk of Decoy and a mug before going upstairs to get a growler of Churo and Regular. I really like how they've been doing this sort of release over the last few years (announce the day of, reasonable limits, etc.). Well done Carton!

    Really wish I could have grabbed some more Churro. That stuff is absolutely slamming. Great job by Carton!

    I just saw on Facebook that they just opened up another pallet of cans, so your friend should be good.

    Any south jersey locals know if regular came around yet. Just wanted a can or two. I know carton usually gets delivered south on Tuesdays but the stores either play dumb on purpose or really don't know if they get stuff in. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

    Man, I went back and forth so many times in my head whether or not to drive down to get the irregular 4 pack, but since I was just there on Saturday I decided not to go again so soon. Oh, well.

    @augiecarton first off, props for a great weekend. I stopped in on Saturday and Monday and it was really enjoyable. Just a quick question... Per the big brown stickers, what is a "Sally Growler"? I'm guessing this has something to do with filling another brewery's glass but any info behind the design would be cool.

    Looking forward to opening these up myself. Really enjoyed regular coffee. Did they wind up selling out? I asked my friend to ask how it looked but he somehow forgot. Didn't realize they had it for growler fill until I was on my way.

    sally growler is the local name for a bottom feeding fish you accidentally catch while flounder/fluke fishing. the bark at you. when your a kid your dad warns you of them in a powerful way. down south (chesapeake area) they are called oyster crackers, because their jaws are said to crack oysters. it makes a big impression. up and down the atlantic they have different names, on the shrewsburry river we call them sally growlers. http://www.stripersonline.com/surftalk/topic/182003-oyster-crackertoadfish/page-2

    @augiecarton would you expect regular coffee to hit NYC wholefoods markets?

    Pretty sure Carton cans never hit NYC except for Sit Down Son, which is produced at Smuttynose. I would be interested in knowing if kegs will hit NYC though - I just saw that a keg of Churro was tapped at Beer Belly in Albany so I'm hopeful.

    hoping kegs hit the city. so tempted to get a rental car and drive down, but it's hard to justify given the limit.
