    I'm headed out to Austin in a few weeks, and was curious if anyone has seen bottles of Das Wunderkind or Boxer's Revenge floating around.

    Or, being that I'm Houston based, has anyone seen them around town? D&Q hasn't had Wunderkind in in a while, and I'm told Underbelly is sitting on upwards of 30 different cases of JK.

    Boxer's revenge is not released yet, its waiting on label approval and good luck finding Das floating around. You'd be lucky to still find it, the release was small and most were bought up quickly. But if you can find a stash let me know :slight_smile:

    Boxer's Revenge is still awaiting TABC approval last I read. Underbelly has 30 different cases? JK doesn't even make 30 different beers yet.

    Those two probably won't be available. The other releases should be easy to find, excluding Commercial Suicide.

    What's the word on rodeo? Is it getting bottled, and has anyone tried it?

    We received TABC label approval for Boxer's Revenge last week. The bottles were picked up by our distributor last Friday. We expect cases to start making their way to stores sometime this week. We will post the list of places receiving Boxer's Revenge once we have it.

    We submitted label approval for Beer Geek Rodeo to TABC about a week ago. We expect it to take up to another two weeks. We also have yet to receive labels for that beer from our label printer.

    105 cases were picked up by our distributor (1,260 bottles). We also have about 30 cases (360 bottles) that we are self-distributing. So the count for the first bottle release of Boxer's Revenge is approximately 1,620 bottles.

    Any updates on Mad Meg? That one seems to be in limbo for awhile. Thanks JK!

    I would settle for 3 bottles. When we received A CASE of Black Metal I didn't buy a single bottle and it sold out in a few days. I would love to walk into my local bottle shops and buy Jester King. Trading for it with my Cali trade partners is waayyyy chaper than driving 2 to 3 hrs. Plus I don't have to hang out with jl28r1. :slight_smile:
