    Walked out of the pub 20 mins ago, bottles still on the counter and NO line whatsoever. Saw a dude on my way out trying to score a second bottle and the cashier saying to him "I recognize you from earlier." Kinda chuckled to myself and walked out.

    I was just there. Virtually no line to speak of. They had about 45 wrist bands left as of about 10 minutes ago. I'd guess at current pace all bottles will be accounted for by 1:45 or 2:00. Total guess on my part there, but that's my estimate.

    I just left and was in and out in 5 minutes. Probably 20 bottles on the counter, and perhaps more in the back. And there was a really young kid pleading his case for a second bottle. "But I left and came back, so can't I get another bottle? No? Can I come back tomorrow and get one?"

    That type of behavior is embarrassing. Did he stomp his feet, too?

    Did he have dirty grease hippie hair, or inquire as to your affinity for sours?

    He actually wasn't being difficult about it. He was just really confused. It felt like the girl selling the bottle was explaining advanced algebra that the kid couldn't quite understand.

    And you already made it your avatar. Trying to hit this trading in all forms. Well Done (golf clap).

    I wonder how many people went to the release today that have never even step foot in GI Clybourn before...
