    I'm honestly just excited for these 2 at the preview sessions; they seem "special" enough that I'm almost surprised they're getting tapped for the non-Rev-attending commoners.

    (of which I may be one this month :sweat_smile:)

    V.S.O.D. is still available at both brewpub and taproom! Kind of surprising.

    Yeah I was trying to see how long I could go without drinking this month seeing as how the bears aren’t in the playoffs, and most releases aren’t until the end of the month....but then my friend from Boston had the audacity to send me fresh Tree House, which arrived yesterday. So about a week it is.

    The cut-off for Fight club will be 700pts this time around, but you have until the end of the weekend to rack them up.

    I expect this to be gone by the end of the release on the 24th, if it even makes it until then. I think 25-30 cases or so left.

    Mmm, I definitely missed that and just got over 600, thanks for the reminder!

    I feel like maybe this has been covered before, but I'll ask anyway. Is there a way to tell what our cumulative points are? I believe that when I login online, I only see my current points, and not my cumulative amount. I'm pretty sure I'm all good, but I just can't bring myself to go back into the world of standing in line!!!

    Hard to believe it's been 10 years. There have been ups-and-downs during that time, but its safe to say Rev is really just starting to peak (which nowadays seems odd for a 10 year old brewery). I've said it before, I'm no longer a BIL guy, yet Rev has single-handedly sucked me back in. And that will continue into 2020.

    Also, I'd like to recommend bringing back BA Baracus for the 11 year beer :wink:

    After logging into Rev Rewards, click on earnings and below the next reward meter gauge there is a... you have accrued X merit on this account. That number has been in sync with my purchases so I am pretty sure those are the points.

    Looking forward to this Ten Year beer, description reminds me of DB VSOJ Cherry Rye that was on tap which was phenomenal!

    I don't think that is correct, as I think that is just your current number of points you have available to redeem. I say that because my number is below the 600 point threshold and I've luckily been part of every Fight Club, and I know I've redeemed points for the $20 off at least a couple times (which means my cumulative points are higher than what is currently listed). Fight Club is supposed to take into account your total cumulative points, not just your current balance, at least from what I've been told.

    From the rev rewards site...
    I HAD A LOT OF POINTS ON MY LAST VISIT, AND NOW I'M BACK TO ZERO. DID I LOSE MY POINTS?
    No. Once you reach 1500 points, the system will take your balance back to zero for $20 reward calculation purposes. However, we retain a lifetime point balance in our system.

    Ah then I am not sure the cumulative points are displayed anywhere. I have redeemed $20 off twice already and haven't made it into Fight Club yet so thinking I should be good to go this time around? But once in Fight Club for the DW 2019-2020 season IIRC then ya are set for the season. There was a post that mentions Fight Club points will not count points from 2018 for next 2020-2021 DW season. Please correct if that is wrong.

    Really is a lot of talking about Fight Club in this thread, given the first rule of it...

    Legal Hero is my hero, my favorite from this series in a long time. It does a decent job of numbing my pain for the pending loss of Unsessionable.

    Thanks for making me look -- assuming I buy four 4pks at the next release I'll save $20!
