    Fancy do you know if Grimm Ales has a tasting room?

    Going on a brewery crawl in BK on Sat and hitting up Other Half and some others.

    Not yet, heard there's one in the works but not open.

    Also, I recommend hitting Other Half later in the day Sat. They're doing a can release in the morning so place will be packed.

    Sadly, not yet. If you're going to OH, you should definitely hit Threes if it's not already on the list. Keg & Lantern in Greenpoint is pretty solid too.

    It was a can release when I went a couple of weeks ago and it was 30ish minutes to get a beer. Basically needed to get one and get right back in line

    Not surprising, they definitely need to expand. Or at least run the can line straight through the garage and leave the tasting room separate. Not sure why they continue to snake people through the tiny tasting room to get cans. Makes no sense.

    When I was there the line was in the garage for cans, but the line for beers from the tasting room wrapped around the tasting room and out into the garage.

    Bar Pitti is cool and has nice outside seating. Also Jake Gyllenhaal was recently there trying to hit on a patron while he waited for his takeout.

    They changed it up so that the line runs directly into the canning room from the street. They also bought the space directly next to their current spot and are in the process of renovating it. Not sure how much longer it will be till it opens. Also, I am in Milwaukee, if you want some beer text me
