    I am looking to go to this tomorrow and was wondering if they allow bottle shares before they open, and if they do, is anyone else gonna be there? Never been down there and the weather looks like it will be nice, so what better time to check it out.

    Considering it since I live a few miles from there. I am imagining a giant sh#tshow though and not sure if I feel like dealing with that.

    I know, I know..."Get off my lawn!"

    You have a point. I have to work tomorrow. Any idea how long it will be going? All day event?

    First time visiting Hailstorm tomorrow, and will be bringing some nice bottles to share. Looking forward to it.

    Can't sneak away until around 11. If anyone is there early and can give updates they would be appreciated!

    Maybe 20 people here bottle sharing. I imagine bottles will last the day.

    Very good. Definitely worth picking up. Bottles should be available into the night.

    Barrel menu is very nice as well.

    Very sweet and bright, not too sour. Enjoyed the oud bruin as well. Walked in at 1pm, got a glass and a bottle no problem. They broke down the tables for more seating, so not sure where they are selling from now.
