    I'd be happy to bring mine whenever I get a chance to visit the brewery... maybe for an upcoming release

    What are the next few releases we should expect in Houston, Jeff? As in Uberkind, etc, etc.

    Our next batches of Boxer's Revenge, Funk Metal and RU-55 will be out over the new few months. I would expect these to see statewide distribution after an initial release day at the brewery.

    So regulars are going to see special releases at the brewery? Or will they just be available at the brewery?

    Sounds like a brewery release then you Houstonites/San Antonians/Dallasinians get a separate release through distro.

    BTW: all of those beers for me, plz.

    So regular distro beers go back to brewery releases? Doesn't make much sense. It'd be like FFF having Dreadnaught day after being a regular on distro. lol

    It's really not complex. They'll do a release day at the brewery AND distribute. Why is that difficult to follow?

    I'm glad I have a bunch of uberkind. In my opinion it's their best beer, and it doesn't seem like they're going to release any soon.

    It's not complex, just seems weird to have a release party for regulars.

    Maybe these won't be considered regular.

    I thought you could typically buy the beers a week or two early at Stanley's anyways?

    Only now it would just be Jester King selling them directly to the consumer I suppose.

    Thanks for deciding to distribute it after the initial release at your Brewpub -

    I am hoping y'all will decide to ship the beer out within days after the initial release to the retailers :-)

    Good Luck

    I think their regular releases are things like Petit Prince, Noble King, etc. Everything else is limited.

    They list which are regular and which are limited on their website.

    Sorry to beat this to death, but when will we be able to buy bottles to go directly from Jester King? I haven't been out there in a while, does Stanley's have Uberkind?

    Soon and No. :slight_smile:

    Surprised no one has posted the fact that Jester King announced today that they are extending their tasting room hours this week and on from 1-4 to 12-6 on Saturdays!

    Thanks. Has anyone seen any Uberkind collecting dust around Austin? I know of the one place out west, but I would prefer not to make the drive.
