    Cheers. It may be but I've seen it that long on multiple occasions and it's nothing to worry about. The line will condense when people start moving and I expect it won't sell out that quickly.

    How's that line moving, fellas? I'm fixing to get there around 6-630p.

    It's moving now. They condensed it down but still super-long. Guessing I'll make it to the front around 5:30.

    Moving as normal but it really is the longest line I've ever seen here for a weekday release and by a good margin.

    Edit: oh, it's because the line skips a big chunk of sidewalk around the corner.

    Ha, making sure as many people get it as possible. I'm fine with a single 4-pack of each. Even then I'll be sharing a few cans with friends.

    How's milkshake looking?

    Tons left. If you're nearby and want some it should be simple.

    I was worried that Milkshake would get Pineal to sell out but when I left there were still cases left and many cases of Milkshake. 330 cases is unprecedented here and when I bought them at ~6:30 there was so much left that I bet it lasts until tomorrow.

    Yes. I thought the Pineal would go but I was able to get that as well. Got there at 5 and had some beers inside before getting in line after 6. A nice release.

    Got in line at 630, out by 645 with 2 4pks of Milkshake. Pineal was gone by then.

    Interesting. So sounds like anyone in line before 6 got Pineal. Glad Milkshake is holding on strong!

    Sounds like milkshake sold out by 7:30

    That's pretty crazy 500 cases in under 3 hours

    I hope it's a sign of things to come and they produce more cans each week. If they did this with non-milkshakes then they'd almost always last past the first night.

    Yep. And I think they would still sell out the day of release because more people would be willing to stop by after they got out of work if they knew cans would last to around 8. I have no doubt they are trying to expand as fast as possible, they are making insane amounts of money. They could make even more and still sell out if they increased their production. Just gotta be patient...then we can all look back and laugh at the empty chair rants - more than we already do! :wink:

    Got there at 5:20 and left at 6:10 with full allotment. And yes, the line was deceiving due to the big gap from the establishment next door. Apparently they didn't want people standing on the sidewalk there even though it was just the side of the building. Saw a lot of people walking out without full allotment so actually surprised Pineal didn't make it to the bar.
