So I am sending my sister in law and her two friends to the beer release for me and I have some questions: -they enjoy and at curious about the craft beer scene but I doubt they want to wait on line from 7 am till the release at 10. What time do they realistically have to get there to score some beer? -what can I tell them about the scene there? Is there bottle sharing? I there a party like atmosphere like at hunaphu day? Or is it just get in line, get your beer and leave. Keep in mind this is 3 single girls in their 20's new to the Charlotte area. They will not drive out to the brewery to merely stab on Line and leave. What can I tell the to expect?
3 single girls in their 20s at a beer release......lol On a serious note, I know some of us BAs will be sharing some stuff in line, but I can't speak for everyone.
You'll have to look at the bottle count and pick a reasonable time to get there. You may get cut out on beer if you arrive too late however, in years past with ORF, I've gone through the line twice. Occasionally there are some left on Sunday. But you never can truly tell. People start the line at 2am. Others arrive at 4, 6, or 8am. The bottle share in line will be low key. If you don't make an ass of yourself you should be fine. But be prepared. The BASC release of 2011 is one infamous episode we would not to recreate. After the release, the crowd dies fairly quickly. You'll get a few of us hanging around for lunch.
