    You won't find better fruited berliners. I haven't tried shipping them, and I know they do recommend keeping them cold to prevent refermentation (massive amounts of fruit) - but they are definitely worth the risk!

    Wondering if you (or anyone) can comment on crowds at Answer on Tuesdays? I haven't gone on a Tuesday in a few months and heard that the crowler wait can get pretty lengthy (upwards of an hour) with overflow from the Veil releases these days. Definitely wasn't the case before they started doing Andall crowlers.

    It's been pretty gnarly the last 3-4 times I went. If you're there around 5-6 after grabbing Veil cans, it's usually 2-3 deep at the bar and crowler wait can be 45min+

    One time in April I decided to go to Answer later and avoid the lines...by 8pm or so, they were out of all the fruited andals.

    I was there yesterday (arrived right around 6) and it didn't seem that bad. I went right up to the bar and grabbed a seat. I didn't get any growlers to go myself, but I saw others have a flight and some food, and their growlers were ready by just about the time they were done.

    Concur. I was there on the 23rd around 5:30 and told the wait for crowlers was at least 45 minutes. The next Tuesday release I find myself at, I'm definitely thinking hit The Answer right at 4pm, hop over to The Veil after.

    The berliners are good, but if they ever start filling crowlers of the stouts, expect all hell to break loose.

    The Answer will fill crowlers for stouts every once in awhile. Be sure to look out on social media, Facebook and Instagram, for when they do. They keep both accounts very updated whenever they release something. Their anniversary party with the release of Diablo's Brunch and Vanilla Vixen was a very well run event and those stouts were amazing. Lucky to live so close!

    I keep seeing this **Please remember to keep them cold and drink asap**. Does this mean that the Joose Crowlers will not ship well? Any particular reason?
