This is def. bring your parents to the brewery day, line is crazy.

Got here sane time (10:15) as Art release and standing in the same spot

Looks like people got here around 7am

The obvious wild-card in all of this? The cat factor. A rare instance where, for all we lowly humans know, the beer is actually secondary to the =^..^=

Don't put the =^..^= on a pedestal.

Don't people work on wednesday. I have to imagine Friday won't be as bad and it should be better than saturday.

So guaranteeing the peace and calm of your stay is worth sitting outside of the brewery for 2.5 hours? ok that makes sense (non-sarcastic). This is just a foreign concept to us Pacific Northwesterners as there are aren't really any beer lines. Holy Mountain has started to garner big waits for bottle releases but it just makes me laugh because I've walked in the afternoon of a bottle release and was able to grab whatever bottles I wanted, have a pint and hang out. However, if there are delicious breakfast tacos available and i wasn't tied to just standing in a spot for 2 hours, I could see myself doing that.

I'm sure some people do it for the FOMO, and some people do it for the fun.

It's a MA/CT/NY/NJ thing.
Getting on the road home earlier is very important to executing the one day 6-800mi trip to buy beer.

Clover is on another level. Each beer stands out on its own through the sip.

 

[JulianB1]

Okay.

Yes - it makes more sense when you bring a loaf of bread and some maple chèvre. Also, traffic is a non-issue when you leave NJ at 4AM.

 

[MikeG1]

Okay.

I'm going to offer him $100, and when he tells me he needs me to go a bit higher, I'm going to post my Costco receipt from this past weekend for $350 and tell him "sorry."

 

[MKtheGeneral]

Okay.

 

[TheeWalrusHunter]

So lets say I show up at noon on Friday. Hypothetically, what is my experience going to be like?

Damn all you jobless losers who can just drive 800 miles round trip for beer on a whim....ehh who am I kidding, I'm just jealous. Great week to be up there. And the fall foliage to boot. Here's hoping Clover lasts till Saturday.

Not everyone works M-F 9-5. For years I've been working 7pm-7am x3 days a week. I've probably lost more brain cells than I can count from staying awake all night. It does provide me the luxury of 1. Spending more time with my kids during the day 2. Going to a brewery during the day if I so choose.

this loser has taken plenty of trips during the week... with a Mon - Fri, 9 -5... and I still have days to burn before the years over since I'm over the amount I can carry into the following year... so... yeah....

 

[BoatsAndHoes]

Was totally joking with the "jobless losers" comment guys. If I had more (any) free time during the week you can bet I'd try to sneak away up to HF too!

 

[wethorseblanket]

Okay.

this group is the absolute worst. it's like if 4chan and reddit had a beer-themed frat party.

 

[Respirologist]

I know both u guys were joking.

But never hurts to reiterate people work off hours and have vacation time to burn

So, who's going to order a Clover for on-site (assuming it's available) and report back?

 

[RyanG1]

If anyone is not getting there full allotment I would be happy to do a Tacos4Tacos trade.

Have carnitas cabesa and lengua variants. You will need to add for chile verde or tripe.


Can expand with burritos from La Taqueria, #1 burrito as rated by Nate Silver and 538.

God is this all this site is anymore? Tacos4Tacos? I mean why waste shipping cost on tacos across the country when you have fresh dry-rubbed carne asada at the local joint down the street. I mean do what you want, its your life. At least its not CaliforniaBurritos4Tacos.
