Didn’t get DBVSOD, but if anyone wants to split Mineshift and Ryeway, pm me

 

Me: "Thank god I have enough points to be on the Deep Woods presale lists."

My wife: [looks at how much I've spent at Revolution the past few months] "I hope this is all worth it to you."

Me: [looks at my 1.5 year old - who is stuck at home all day, every day now while I try to work - screaming in the corner] "My sanity is worth every penny."

 

Does anyone know the Rev Rewards points needed to be added to their presale list? Just curious how much more of my bank account I need to strive to deplete to be considered. Haha.

 

I think it depends a bit on the product being released and I don't know if the dollars/points deprecate over time, but I got the email on the SJ release after not receiving it for Thundertaker/Deth Tar releases. I had just crossed the $750ish mark lifetime.

 

Revolution has not officially announced where the cutoff is for presale. Pre-COVID, the Skip-The-Line invitations were for the top 250-300 point earners over the past 1-2yrs. For this fall, it has been mentioned by Rev reps that the near ~600 or so point earners will get a presale email, and in November it seemed to have a cutoff of ~$700 spent dating back to 1/1/19.
Yesterday I saw a message they sent to a friend that missed this presale that it does also depend on how limited the release is.
After this Deep Wood season (after January), I am guessing the $$ that will count for presale eligibility will reset to include only 2020 and 2021 points? Maybe @BeerCruncher has more insight to share.

 

You have to be a 1%er. You aren't ready for the way this club changes your life.

 

Can confirm it is in the $700’s as far as pre-sale eligibility. I have $625 spent and did not receive an email. Hopefully I can be included in the presale for the final drop in January.

 

Anybody ever get a low fill can in their mystery bag? Poured the can of Ryeway to Heaven(2019) and it only yeilded about 8 ozs.

 

It's not the same, fixed level of points for every release. A client facing Rev employee stated "The cut-off for "skip the line" presales changes every release depending on how limited the beer is".

It's why some Rev Rewards members may get the presale invite for one release but not the next. Rev might give some guidance on where the cutoff will be for a particular release but that will just be an approximation. I think they avoid putting out a specific number as there are several variables.

 

The exact same thing happened to me a few weeks back (with the same beer). I emailed them the issue and they very gladly gave me a can to replace it with. Shoot them a note.

 

Oh snap, I totally missed that Coffee Eugene is releasing this week as well (with distro)! Excellent.

 

That number near $700 was for the November release. Once people spent then, and the weeks after, I would have guessed the release for this one in December was over $800. BUT - Rev admitted today on Twitter that the presale cutoff yesterday was 799 points.

I would guess that the final release will also be somewhat limited in quantity, so buy some Merchandise and some beer for friends and family to PUMP UP those numbers!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

 

Rev said the line was 799 for this release today on Twitter...

@Oneinchaway As Rev doesn’t ship beer, I assume you out-of-staters all have proxies? Curious how much you drop on shipping these releases to California? Send Rev your invoices for bonus reward points lol.

 

I only had 532 points so I was left to set all of my notifications on social media like the Dusty Rhodes-Common Man that I am. I had a day 2 presale for Supermassive with under 200 points so it definitely depends on the release. Without needing to line up, obviously the point totals are going up since it’s easier to buy every release now. I’m just trying to set myself up for the 2021 presales

 

I'll have over 1000 for 2021...once 2019 points drop off...

 

@VinHalen54 getta load of this big shooter!

 

Hell Yeah! I love people supporting Rev - keep it rolling!
...Steve is messing around since I have WAY too many Rev Beers...
