    Maybe, or maybe not. Maybe its already been bottled and delivered.

    I think going to Colorado is a pretty good consolation prize...

    Blackholes will form in the disto spots. Those who missed out on Assassin will be hunting these hard.

    Will be widely available, unlike Assassin so should be easy to get.

    Last time SOSUS was brewed it was a 2 case limit at the brewery.

    I'd expect it will sell for $20 a bottle based on the $25/growler price last time it was brewed.

    Last time it was $10 or so a bomber. If it's $20, I guarantee you will never see a TG beer in my hands ever again.

    King Sue was amazing but I won't pay $20 for it. Assassin was $20 last year I had no problem with that. I am hoping it will be less.

    King Sue will be priced right along the lines of Sosus. Both beers will be bottled the same day and should have similar bottle counts.

    Whew. I was worried for a second. You guys may have lost one or two loyal fans otherwise and have put your entire business in jeopardy.

    I've also got plans to visit the taproom on the 14th. Looking forward to it either way, but this would be amazing!

    Saw a tweet from TG last night that said something like, "if all goes as planned, next week we will bottle King Sue, Sosus and Naughty 90." I believe they usually bottle on Friday's, so if that's the case with these, I'm guessing the taproom will have bottles on the 15th. Distro accounts the following week.

    Has toppling Goliath stopped announcing their bottle deliveries on Facebook? Haven't seen one in a while.

    Pretty sure they didn't' announce the last deliveries for Sue/Lightspeed either, right?

    Yes, they went silent until Assassin was distributed.
