    That FW collab sounds like a lot of fun, always happy to get another BW from Rev.

    Other notes:
    Lumberstruck was originally designed to be more of a premise, not an exact replica each time, featuring unique wood/barrels. We decided to stick with the same black barleywine recipe though, but make a big change to the wood with this one featuring amburana so it should be very different. The artwork is the same but you may have noticed the colors were changed to help indicate a difference, not to mention the descriptions which will be updated as well.

    There will be plenty more Twenty Ten Collection 19.2s in the Fall, but I didn't want the June buy-in cost to exceed $400. That felt like enough to ask...I might take the suggestion I got here and make an optional "booster pack" add-on as we approach October that guarantees you the remaining 19.2s as well AND pass on a discount for committing to all (at least 3) of them. Thoughts?

    I love the idea of a booster pack for the stovepipes!

    Would definitely buy the booster pack (and also appreciate keeping the initial buy-in at the $400)

    Booster Pack is a great idea. Also love how different Lumberstruck will be this time. Loved the first batch of that beer and only have 1 can left.

    Another vote for the booster pack here.

    @BeerCruncher Am I reading the description correctly in that the $50 off retail savings are just counting the 10x 4 packs (and not the glass/stovepipe)? If so, is my rough math correct in that this probably means some increases to the core pricing we’ve seen and been fortunate to have for way too many years in a row now?

    Not complaining, just curious. I also love justifying the “savings” to the wife. “I just saved us $100.”

    What a great lineup. I'm very excited to see Rev tinkering around more with amburana, and on a black barleywine nonetheless. Is this even a beer that's been done? @BeerCruncher anything else in that one, was it aged on a spirit barrel first?

    I went from 2 to 1 ticket. Buddy of mine and I decided to just split one because we both have too much beer. I'll definitely be buying some extra 4 packs though.

    Lastly, boost me baby. Love that this program, asks for feedback, then dabbles with the practical ideas.

    Deth's Tar and Straight Jacket were $25 in 2017 and they'll be $25 again in 2024. Cafe and Ryeway, still $30, and Bramble $40 cause the fruit costs are silly. We continue to eat the inflationary costs, made possible by the season ticket commitments that we get. So at the risk of laying it on too thick, by signing up, you're helping us keep these things affordable.

    These are subject to change slightly, but very unlikely:

    The glass is super expensive because of the skull inside the bottom, so we're valuing that at $15
    V.S.O.J. and Double Barrel V.S.O.R. will both be $60.
    The Triple Oaked Firestone monster will be $50 and honestly should be more but I want people to get it, cause it's insane.
    Lumberstruck will jump from I believe $30, to $40 because of the need to do 2 phases, finishing in Amburana so to answer this question:

    Yes, the beer only needs to sit in the amburana for a few days to Cinnamon Toast Crunch it up. Kind of like exposing Deth to Coffee Beans, less is more.

    The transparency and share of background information is always greatly appreciated. It's honestly an additional reason, beyond the excellent beer and great pricing, that I happily continue to purchase these.

    Is this "super sweet" glass that I haven't seen going to be available for purchase to non-season pass holders?
