    List looks good, but a lot of them are $1/oz and up in 8 or 12oz pours that shouldn't be that pricey. 8oz of GLBC Blackout for $7? No, thank you..

    Anyone heard any details on Ocelot can release? Supposed to release Talking Backwards on Thursday, but I haven't seen if that's at open.

    A little birdy told me that cans of Heady Topper can be found at Boundary Stone in DC if you ask the bartender nicely. Not sure how long the supply will last.

    Only 100 cases avail if you’re not in line by 11am. Don’t bother. I love Ocelot but they should’ve made double that amount

    They did the same thing last year in completely underestimating. A bit frustrating. I understand they like to do one-offs etc, but if you make a beer people love and have the ability to sell a bunch of it then why don't you.

    I'm going to guess that since this is your first post, you are likely affiliated with the establishment. How much are you overcharging?

    We are heading to DC tomorrow for a long weekend. We normally go to Churchkey at least once. Any other good bars we should try this time around? We are staying close to Logan Circle. Also, any good IPA's worth picking up. We are taking the train this time, but are fine with taking Lyft.

    I think it sold pretty fast last year but it was also one case per person, 500 bottles total (~20 cases). I'd be surprised if they go through 100 cases tomorrow but definitely possible.

    @i_run_far My thoughts were the same I mean I can see it selling out. Just not in less than 2 hours.

    Long time lurker, first time poster. No affiliation with the place other than it's my local, but thanks for the supposition.

    You are not at all far from Adams Morgan, tons of good spots there. Start at Smoke & Barrel, hit Black Squirrel, then Jack Rose. They are all on the same side of the street. Also across the way is Roofers Union.

    Just curious, are they six-packs or four-packs?

    Lost & Found is a short walk and usually has a really solid selection too. But generally speaking, if you're looking for multiple good places in a small radius then I would go with the aforementioned in Adams Morgan.
