    Yeah, all the carbonation left the beer when I opened the can. Larger than normal bubbles that faded in a few seconds. Had this happen before but not with any Rev beers.
    Still delicious

    For what it’s worth, I had a DBVSOJ last weekend that was just fine. Stored in a part of my basement that’s usually 50ish, and never gets above 60.

    Appreciate the tip on this! In town this week for work and I think I'll sneak over to Binny's downtown to grab one of these to stash in my checked bag. Would love to get to the brewpub but I don't think I'll be able to :slight_frown:

    Season Ticket Holders will want to keep their eye on their e-mail tomorrow mid-morning.

    Upped mine to 2 tickets. I don't need to eat so much anyway!

    Lineup for the year looks great.

    I dropped from 2 to 1 simply because I've fallen too far behind in my cellar. But I'm afraid my lack of self control buying extras over the four releases will more than overcome that...

    When is the opportunity for new members to sign up? I was on the fence as a non Chicago resident in the past but I've had no issue finding proxys in the last year and even when factoring in shipping costs Rev is still the best deal in craft beer

    The smarter Rev gets with this thing the dumber other breweries look. Half Acre should be doing this. Goose should be spreading out BCBS releases and doing this and including a ticket to one of their fests. Literally everything these days is based on the subscription model why is big craft lagging so far behind?

    We're giving prior year season ticket holders 1 week to renew, then we'll blast the message far and wide for our remaining spots.

    Do you have dates for the releases that I can put into my Google Calendar?

    Went from 1 to 2. With this round being barleywine/ryewine heavy, I could not be more excited for this year. Random question, how many ounces in the glass, out of curiosity?
