    I may buy the cans just for the art! Love the gold graphics.

    I thought I had until this winter for these, but they front loaded the bangers to summer. 11 beers for this years DW releases, 12 months in a year, maybe add one more DW release and do one a month instead?

    January. January. January.

    January is so far away to already have major FOMO.

    As someone who always loves the fruit variants I'm real curious about this "new approach" to the fruit addition. The last Deth by Currants is my favorite fruit stout they've ever done so I hope I can get my hands on this new one. Any word on distro for any of these?

    I usually reserve my opinions on can label artwork since I spend all day every day looking at art and tend to be pretty jaded, but that Ryeway can is super sick looking!

    July 22nd is going to kill my beer budget. But I’ll start working out now, so I’ll be ready.

    I'm unequivocally most excited about Very Special Old Dark Mode.

    I was blown away by the "regular" version, and think it was a bit overlooked since milk stouts aren't seen as all that cool these days.

    Can't wait!!

    Somehow I've still not had Dark Mode. I should probably fix this.

    When you're excited to see the first release of Deep Woods, then realize what effect it will have on your wallet...:tired_face:

    Really excited for all of these. The artwork rules. I hope there are posters or one poster with all 11 artworks together. These July releases are really nice.

    I feel like online releases have worked well for them, I haven't seen too many people be opposed to it. Especially given that quite a few folks work Fridays and many are out in the burbs. Making the last release on a Friday during work hours was a pretty wild idea, I don't know too many people that can make those.

    Just a head's up (not sure if I missed an announcement elsewhere or not), but the taproom currently has crowlers of VO Deth by Currants and 2018 VSO Lynott's to go on the store. $40 each. I'm not mad.

    Batch 1 Mineshaft Gap was very good. Batch 2 was downright amazing and one of the best beers I drank last year. I still would give the title of Rev "masterpiece" to VSOJ, but it's really close. I have 2 cans of Mineshaft left, and I think I'm going to pop one tonight.

    BTW, count me in as one who really liked Code Switch, and I see why they wanted to use the JD barrels. JD is a lot drier than bourbon, and they seemed to be going for "dry" to balance out the sweetness of the fruit. It really worked, in my opinion.

    Maybe I missed something. Is July 22 the sale date, pick up date, or are we awaiting clarification?

    I think it's just July '22... as in 2022. No details on exact date or times.

    I’d gather it’s the 22nd, Friday, of July for the release of the first set.

    Yeah, July 22 is the release date. I'm sure there will be further details as we get closer to this date as far as other logistics (e.g., preview parties, online sales, distribution).
