    Curious to see people's thoughts on how these Side Note releases go. I know that S'More Luv is going to be released this Saturday at 11:00 am at the Schaumburg location.

    Are you allowed to bottle share in line? How early do people usually start lining up? Past allotments on Side Note releases?

    Let me know and I appreciate the help.

    Thanks for the post... I hadn't heard about this. I may go for lunch and hope I can get some.

    How did you hear about this release?

    I was at the last side note release. Arrived around 10:50 and the line was around the building. There was definitely a lot of bottle sharing going on in line for those that showed up earlier. Allotment was 2 bottles each of ChocoLatte and Juicy for the first 150 ppl (I think) and 1 bottle of each for everyone after that.

    I was lucky enough to end up being the last person to get 2 of each before the cutoff (they went a bit over 150).

    Going to be in Chicago for the Pearl Jam show at Wrigley Saturday. We will be in Schaumburg Sunday for an IKEA run and to stop in at RAM. Guessing this one won't last through the afternoon?

    Thanks for that information. Looks like I'll be getting there pretty early. Hopefully shoot for being there at 8:00 am. Going to rain Saturday, that may keep some people away.

    From the above comment it seems like these bottles do not last long after it's 11:00 am release.

    Bottles don't last long but I remember hearing they do growler fills. I think. Maybe.

    I've heard and read how great these side note beers are so yes people will line up. I'll line up for Juicy when they release it again.

    Nope. All RAM breweries are created equal and this one is not special in any way. Nothing to see here.
