    I'm not there so I can't confirm, but OH posted an update on their Instgram about 30 minutes ago that there's no line and "still plenty of beer".

    No Layups should come with more than a Surgeon General's warning on the side of the can. This beer is fucking lethal. Straight fruit juice with no hint of alcohol whatsoever.

    I'm drinking my first can now and had to check myself 3/4 of the way through. Beer is going down WAY too easy. Probably one of my favorite OH IPAs as of late.

    I really love strolling up at noon, and buying a few 4pks. That and the threes release made for a really nice haul today with very little stress.

    I am very upset I didn't get the limit of grits. So drinkable

    Walked in at 3 pm and everything was still available. Super excited to bring these back to Chicago and surprised it lasted that long.

    My breakdown of this release is as follows:

    #1: No Layups
    #2: Grits 'n' Greens
    #3: Suparillo

    All of them are VERY good beers, but I definitely prefer the first Suparillo canning to this one. Suparillo used to be fairly hazy, but this batch is closer to transparent than opaque. I agree with the tasting notes Other Half posted in their Instagram, but I don't think these cans are as good as the first batch.

    Either way...there has to be a least favorite, and Suparillo alone was still worth the drive out to Other Half. Awesome release. Can't wait for the next.

    Maybe I got a bad bottle or I am just understanding why these bottles took forever to sell out, but Table Beer is pretty awful.

    I commend you for avoiding the word crushable in your statement. You must be of legal drinking afge.

    I live in Suffolk and table beer is on the shelves. Have never seen an other half beer other than at the brewery. They didn't sell out, just turned it over for distro it appears
