    Binny’s will only have Thundertaker today. Coconut Deth goes out for distro at some point down the road. Lumberstruck sees no distro. (Per earlier social media posts sent by Rev)

    Oh man. I misread Lumberstruck for Thundertaker.

    Looks like you are out of lumber luck.


    Reading this gave me diarrhea.

    I wish I had done that with Mineshaft Gap. Doubt I would do that for beers I haven’t tried.

    Hey, I know that guy with a dolly's worth of allotments! He sent me a pic of it in his kitchen last night and I just LOL'd saying he ought to post it for the admiration... but mostly hate! :grin: In his defense, only 2 allotments were his and the rest were proxies for friends. I would've thought it was more impressive if they were all actually his, though.

    Heard if rye is your bag, this is Supermassive Rye Thundertaker and excellent. Forget the OG I was told. May go grab a fifth pack for long-term enjoyment...

    LZ Binny's was nice. Limit 2, small stack on the floor and more in the back.

    Bolingbrook was limit 1.

    Anyone have an idea when coconut will hit? Kinda odd that the larger distro one was held back.

    my thoughts exactly. the employee at the Peoria Binny’s said “we didn’t see that one this week.” was hoping to be able to grab a 4pk of each today but will keep my eyes peeled next week i guess.

    Cracked a Thundertaker last night...it's better than last year. I don't say that lightly.

    Worth an early lunch to score...and worth trips to more than one Binnys.

    I can't believe that ABV is correct.

    Drove 7 minutes to South Loop Binny’s and walked out a few minutes later with a 4pk. This will be my first time trying Thundertaker. I’m ready.

    I was a yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyuuuuuuuuuuge fan of 2020. Still have 2 cans. If it's true this one is better(and everything I've seen says that is true), then I'll be very, very happy. I'm a big fan of most rye stuff. I'm sure you'll like it.

    From my Facebook -
    Me: When does Coconut hit distro shelves?
    Revolution Brewing: Soon, if not today. It's already been sent out on trucks and is going to depend on the retailer.

    Guess I'll be hunting after work :slight_smile:

    Ah what the hell... lol. Why couldn't they just have it all there at once?

    Thanks for the info, though. Guess I'll be heading back up there later today too.

    Distributor contracts. I imagine Thundertaker went straight to Binnys and the rest will have to go through Rev's regular distribution routes that go to Binnys as well as other stores.

    Side note - Binnys in Schaumburg still has Thundertaker.

    Binnys will only have Thundertaker today. They'll get Coconut in due time. Lumberstruck is...gone, as it was brewery only.

    We will be playing 2 songs on repeat for the entire release today, Thunderstruck to continue confusing you all on the names, and Thunder by Imagine Dragons because we don't want there to be a line and that will ensure that folks are cycling out. You're welcome. (Kidding)
