    I don't get out of work until 6 and I won't be down there til around 7 so I doubt any cans will be left but if not I'll definitely be filling the growler I have with me

    Citra wasn't on when I was in there. I was getting an Oat Overdose but it kicked. Didn't see what if anything they put on to replace it.

    Line was still just around the block when I left.

    Citra replaced Oat Overdose and is now on tap.

    Any updates on the cans left/line situation? I'm wondering if it's worth the drive down...

    Their twitter said the stout is gone. 70 make it rain and 80 Citra cases left as of a half hour ago.

    I'm about 15 from the end of the line and someone just came out to count the line. If everyone got full their full allotment, it would run out before the last 5 people or so.

    The line moved pretty slow because there were 5 different options, and that's just beer, let alone glasses, shirts, hats, etc

    I didn't know in absentia was still around (missed last release) or I would've gone by the tap room to grab it during the week!

    Tree House manages to handle crowds just fine, including growler fills and merch.

    Just reduced the limit to two four packs of each variety pp. Line is moving really, really slow.

    Sure, but as per why the line moved more slowly than a typical other half line, I would say it's a pos issue.

    Customers aren't helping the problem either with the amount of time they spend at the table loading up rather than stepping outside to pack bags and such.

    What's insane is I can spend 5 hours in my car for a tree house trip, and still spend less time than going to an other half release.
