    You're excused.

    For the record, I can't make it up to their can releases so I've never had any of those, only what's on tap when I stop by. IMO, HPB's West Coast IPAs have been better than their NE-style. But, again, limited personal experience.

    No lot exists for them to do so though nor does any business have enough extra spaces to accommodate this. No open land anywhere near their spot. 300-400 parking spots. Hence the busy Monkish area. Sure, 101 is a freeway, but with large lots of open land in proximity along with large business buildings with plenty of parking spaces, sure Institution can do that.

    I wonder how often they need to redo the black top and paint the spaces in parking lots, in general. Every 5 or 10 years? Or you think they last longer?

    My Swedish friend went to Omnipollo's Hatt in Stockholm... and they had Foggier on tap!

    The IG comments on that Hop Baller glass are pure gold. People are out of their freaking minds.

    Monkish's ability to generate sales with non beer items is truly impressive and rivaled (locally) only by Modern Times.

    My favorite:

    "I guess that's fair... just a bummer to be in line with a wristband hours before opening last weekend and then see this..."

    (as if forced by nature to be there in line that early)

    Thats wild. I wasn't going to try, but now I am just so one of them misses out. Not that I'm guaranteed. You can take these comments and comments from their can releases, and show them to random people, and I bet they'd guess that the original post was about some free give away.

    The comments I love seeing in some releases, when stuff sells out in under a minute when its a F5 madness.

    Is when people say "thanks for the smooth release" lol

    This is for glasswear right? Did they make 3 of them? Out of curiosity, how much do these overhyped glasses go for at a retail price? How far are we from people making these themselves and selling them?
    I have so many more questions because I do not understand the desire for these.

    I think you're better off not knowing. Save you the disgust. *Plans to use glass to store spare change

    I hear all this talk about how the coastal elites need to reach out to Trump voters, but I really want to reach out and understand these glass people. What drives you? What is the giant hole in your heart that you're trying to fill with an empty glass?

    Only 80 people in line at the beginning of sales, 450+ allotments. Is their new policy of only 2 four packs PP having an effect on the traders/sellers ?
