Patch reader provides advice if you are heading to the barn for the first time this summer.

Anyone who has been to the in Hampton Bays will say it's an experience not to be missed. Despite the long lines, fans continue to go back Sunday after Sunday during the summer to drink beer from cups from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. and have a good time. 

Last summer, Westhampton-Hampton Bays Patch sent  to experience the Barn. He waited on line for hours, never to enter the door, but he said, he'd do it again in a heartbeat.

5. Prepare to be laughed at for ordering a cocktail of any kind. It's all about the beer here.
