    It's a 32oz crowler. Not 4paks of 16oz trade bait.

    Shooting for 5pm. Are there typically lines for fills on Friday nights at open? I've only ever been there mid afternoon on a Saturday.

    Did you not see the reax to the posts? I'm wondering if I need to drop my chair off during my lunch break. :rolling_eyes::grinning:

    don't start shitlording @ troon

    i'm sure they'll be a smallish group there before they open or people inside the tavern having some suds waiting till 5.. he said the beers will still be available for growlers once all the crowlers are gone so plenty of fluid is available... i'm sure fomo will kick in for many though and they'll have to have the new metal containers... they do look cool

    I'm just having a little fun with this. I expect there to be about ~50 people to show up around opening. Now that is not nearly Tired Hands level line life but certainly will bring some of that life chaos to bucolic Hopewell Valley.

    Now, the big question is, are there limits? Price per two was quoted so is that the limit? You know how No Limit Soldiers be rolling, it only takes one bruh to be 'holding down the squad'...

    P.S. - again just having some fun with this. I hope it doesn't get crazy, Alex doesn't deserve that.

    This.

    I am actually surprised that its not limit one crolwer per to keep the masses at bay and spread the wealth. I don't live close and I am not actively trading, but I'd definitely pick up more than one crowler if allowed, you know, for my man n them...

    i took it as 2pp but yeah it's not stated... theoretically if there is no limit the first person could buy it all.. think it's kind of more like.. hey don't be an ass.. buy your 2 of each kind and let the next guy get some and if you want more hop back through or ask for some glass growler fills when getting your cans

    I'm going to aim for two of each, that's usually what I get on fills too. Haha, just saw that Alex posted 75 cans per person was the limit in response to some bro saying they wouldn't make the trip for one per person :grinning:

    Do people who say things like that actually believe their entitlement matters? Troon sells out everything they brew to the last drop. :astonished:

    Kind of wish Alex did state a limit though. No limit is bad news. Too many idjits have made selling beer on the secondary market their side hustle.

    I'm thinking he is going to ask if anyone wants more than two to get growler fills...at least I hope.

    Hopefully. I know he mentioned that at least for the time being he'll still be filling growlers. Which will likely be my only way to try these two new brews. Can't make it friday myself. I expect they'll sell the crowlers out that evening.

    Yes, they do. It's infuriatingly hilarious.

    Can someone give me the lay of the land? Parking easy to find? Anything I should know for a first trip for some crowlers?

    Is this in response to me? I've been aware of this place for a while. I have a rare Friday off which is more my reason for going. Hopefully the crowd is more welcoming than you.

    I hope I'm wrong, but I think this is going to be a shit show.
