    Although it does contain some very good tidbits of information the "Tired Hands to Can" thread is a bit overwhelming - especially for those people who have never been to the brewery before. So I thought that I would create this one in order to streamline information for all things Tired Hands in the month of April.

    Useful Links:

    * Tired Hands on instagram (can releases usually take place on Wednesday/Thursday afternoon)
    * Tired Hands brew cafe
    * Tired Hands fermentaria

    Finally we got rid of the 1500 replies old thread.

    Nice and concise, well done.
    Maybe note that the cafe is closed Mondays and the Ferm is closed Tuesdays.

    Nice job! Might as well throw in their growler policy before someone complains about it.

    Hours of Operation: Tired Hands Brew Cafe is closed on Mondays and the Fermentaria is closed on Tuesdays

    Growler Filling Policy: "Please feel free to fill as many growlers as you would like. In Pennsylvania, each transaction must be limited to 192 fluid ounces. This means that upon receipt, if you would like to purchase more than 192 fluid ounces of our beer, you must leave the premises and then return to pick up additional beer (and then repeat the cycle if you’d like any more beer!).

    We will also be opening up for 64 oz growler fills on MOST ALL BEERS. There will, of course, continue to be a few beers that we will not do any growler fills of (one-off kegs, anniversary beers, etc.), but this should be a rare occurrence.

    We will continue to fill our branded glassware only, as we are STILL exceedingly proud to put our name on our Strange & Beautiful beer. If this is a very big issue for you, we will be happy to let you “trade-in” any growler for one of ours. Sound good?"

    I guess the consensus was correct about starting a new thread every month. with 4+ releases every month- I think this will help.

    maybe someone can summarize all the previous can release information. such as which cans released, how much of each available, limits per person, what day & time, how long each offering lasted and what time you had to line up to get each.

    perhaps somebody has already come up with a formula where you just plug in the beers & cases made?

    Yeah, someone could do that evey month, OR, we could keep a running thread where all that information is compiled.

    Making my first trip there in a few weeks. Will they fill my Drinktanks since it's not branded, or is this literal in they'll ONLY fill their branded growlers?

    Also please record the temperature and the prevailing wind conditions at the time of the release. Additionally would be helpful to let us know where you parked and how long it took you to walk back with your beer before you got in line for seconds and thirds

    It's a high price but also a high quality beer. I really liked the cans of Punge this week and I think they were much better than the cans of Foliage a few weeks ago.

    Punge is awesome, and gets me hot and bothered (in a good way) just from thinking about it.

    I had the Helles on draft at a local beer bar last evening. IMO that beer is very, very good!!

    Cheers!
