    Absolutely. The fear is real.

    Also not like there is a shortage of amazing IPAs in the Midwest. Gotta get that RAM.

    While I agree there is no shortage of amazing IPA's in the Midwest. There is a shortage of those creating IPA's like this. I will gladly stand in line to buy this next time it's released. It's that different from the rest of the IPA's out here and in all the best ways.

    I can't believe people take time out of their lives to post stuff like this.

    Take that logic, apply to yourself.

    Ha Ha! I knew somebody would say that!

    Back on topic, I picked up 3 crowlers of Juicy today. No waiting in line required. Can't wait to try it!

    We went to the Ram and picked up bottles. We were in town for the weekend and figured let's check out the hype. We didn't wait long at all and it was a smooth process. We grabbed some Juicy on tap and drank it there. It's a good brew. I was able to hop back into line a buy four more bottles for my neighbor.

    Juicy is a perfect DIPA for summer.

    Regardless if you end up liking the beer, isn't purchasing 3 crowlers of a beer you've not tried a bit speculative?

    No, I was able to have a taste of it before purchasing.

    Gotcha. Saw the 'can't wait to try it' so thought you hadn't tried it.

    Yes, I guess that was misleading on my part. I should have said, "I can't wait to try more than a 1oz pour"!

    This discussion again.... and again... and again.... and again... and again. It just won't die: random people telling other people how much and what people should wait in line for. :rolling_eyes: Seriously, go buy whatever you want to buy from whoever and for however long you are willing to wait.

    I thought batch 1 was pretty good. Glad they're making some good stuff over there.

    But how long did you wait in line?

    0 minutes. I didn't even know about it and a friend popped it at a share. Perhaps that made it taste much more whalzy.

    Yet hundreds of people do it every week at several breweries.

    Anyone know if they have any crowlers left today? I was thinking about swinging by.

    When i was there at 4 yesterday they said the last 2 had been sold a few minutes prior. They were filling those plastic ones, however.
