    What are the chances this one gets distributed to Texas? The article says it will debut at the brewery but may also see distribution. I just thought it sounded amazing and wanted to share it with others.

    If this one doesn’t get your mouth watering, I don’t know what will. Avery’s 15th release in the barrel-aged series is coming up right on the heels of Volunt Plus, as they rapidly shift gears from a fruited sour ale to a rum barrel-aged coconut porter. Momi Hiwa will debut on June 9 at the brewery (although this apparently might see some distribution as well) in typical 12 ounce bottle format, delivering a heavy duty sipper weighing in at 16.19% ABV.
    Commercial description:
    “Much like a certain fabled two-piece candy bar of our youth, rich, dark chocolate notes accented with aromatic toasted coconut. What would ad depth and character to this already delicious combo, we wondered? The answer is time (6 months) well spent in the very best rum barrels available.”
    Only 362 cases were produced, so expect this one to move quickly. More info will be posted about the release once it’s available from the brewery.

    That sounds awesome. Odio Equum was 465 cases so this one is close to that with 365 so its definitely a possibility. Will likely have to trade someone in Austin for one like the past 2 Avery barrel releases.

    This is what I figured would happen. I didn't know if Texas got any of the past barrel releases or not. I know it will be very limited but it sounds awesome.

    It'll be released in 1 store in Houston. It will be much easier to get in Austin/DFW.

    Sound familiar?

    Agreed. I love all things coconut. Except the consistency. Still, I'd appreciate if someone gets a bottle of this and share it with me. :slight_smile:
