    Defensive interpretation of my post!

    But to be clear, I do think lining up for beers for hours today is hilarious. Up to you if you feel shame or not.

    Taproom is insane partially cause the back isn’t open like on weekends.

    I will see I can at least appreciate cutting of limits now, where as a few years back it didnt happen often enough. They should start lower and cut further if need, but them mules gotta mule and get the full allotment

    Was online at 10am and wrapped around Garnet. Wristband said it was 68, but seemed like there was far more people ahead of me than that. Got beer at like 12:45. Would not have been as bad if they actually opened at a 11 which i was hoping for.

    I was zero intentions of getting Crunchee, but, since it was cut down I got caught up in the hype and got a 4-pack.

    I only got 3x Broccoli and 2x Ghost. Can't believe all the people piling on cases of the 10%+ triples...

    No line...everything available except crunchee (which I didn’t want anyway).

    if anyone from the meet up wants to save me a can or two of the parish collab I can hook you up with something from my fridge, if not no worries. Any feedback on how it is!?

    I don’t understand sending someone out to tell people they were opening at 11 and then open at 12 anyway. Maybe unless you are sure don’t say it?

    And this is another example of why there should be no reason to line up for beer.

    Eh...I don't see the big deal in this. They made a mistake, but it's not as if they opened late. They could've just been like other breweries and opened at their stated time despite the size of the line (though I heard they still opened before 12).

    Trying cans of the collabs at a certain uptown Manhattan bar, both very good but pretty much par for the course for OH IPA.

    Wait, wut? I thought only way to get these beers was to get in line at 6am and wait on sidewalk for 6 hours.
