    It seems the days of snagging Benthic rather easily are behind us. The variants last year were crazy good.

    I think there are some folks that may say it wasn’t easy to grab 2-3 years ago.

    Regular and vanilla were pretty easy to get in distro last year.

    I’m hoping they perhaps can even more of it this year since the need for kegs isn’t really there at this point (and there doesn’t seem to be a clear end to that). Of course, they usually don’t have many kegs of it on tap anyway, so not sure it’ll make that much of a difference.

    I’m pretty sure vanilla was only at brewery. But yeah regular wasn’t terribly difficult to get from Binnys

    Yeah, you're right. I mixed it up with Vanilla Big Hugs.

    Yeah, I don't think Vanilla saw distro but I could be wrong about that. I could still find regular 19 as of 2 months ago by me.

    I should clarify I meant the variant package. I remember grabbing one pretty easily online last year.

    Just had a regular a few days ago, still bangin'.

    Yeah last 2 years I was able to buy the pre-order package without any fuss.

    Which basically means the site didn't crash and I was able to input my credit card number before it said "sold out" etc..

    Savvy move to have Benthic go live two days before BCBS lotto emails go out.

    I guess? There is zero chance this isn’t going to sell out before or after bcbs lotteries
