    After reading about these releases, I am legitimately actively trying to figure out if there is any way I can force a trip for work during 1 or more of these releases.

    This year’s lineup is insane.

    I’m borderline angry at the lineup is so good.

    That's honestly sort of what it's come to with Rev:

    "Screw these guys for putting out more awesome BA stuff than I can handle"

    Any idea if this is going to make it to Ohio this year? Don’t know what happened last year but we didn’t see anything from the Deth series.

    Honestly, more than anything else I just want to try them. I've become a big fan, and although I'd LOVE to have a 4-pack and split a typical allocation (two 4-packs of each type), I'm not greedy. I just want a chance to try them. BUT, as @Number1Framer has mentioned before, it's difficult to make a trade for these sometimes. The standards - those are fine. The others? Not so much. I never did try Ryeway to heaven as a result.

    So, honestly - although my comment was meant as a joke, I am just a tad bit angry that it is so difficult to trade for :stuck_out_tongue:.

    Last year I was very lucky, and @odcardinal reached out, and helped me get some of the brews. I was eternally grateful. Unfortunately, he decided to leave, and I no longer have my Mule :slight_frown:. Selfish, right? How dare he.

    @Veliksta1 - The tap lists for the deep woods releases are always incredible. Unfortunately, though, if you’re out of town that weekend. You spend the next 32 years suffering the gloating from beer nerd frenemy’s about what you missed out on.

    Any chance Rev resumes “deep cuts” and start tapping some of these midweek throughout the year? Or is this still a thing and I just don’t know how to see announcement for it anymore?

    And, as always, thanks for all you do for the community!

    Actually I think we're all okay just gloating over you.

    Wow, OK. I guess my travel plans for... wait... mid-October just changed.

    See you there!

    Looks like I’ll be in town for the collab release on Saturday. Any chance they’ll have some barrel aged stuff on draft for the release, other than honey and strawberry jacket?

    Deep Cuts were not a big success unfortunately. Perhaps the world just wasn't quite ready for cuts so deep in 2017. I wouldn't worry too much about there not being enough barrel-aged beers starting in a couple months.

    As a fat person who hates the heat, I look forward to cool to cold temperatures and big, barrel aged beers. Fuck Al Fresco culture!

    Liked the update but not the news. Not even Beanorma Gene? For old times sake?

    Will of course be picking up Coffee Eugene in the Fall.Will of course be picking up Coffee Eugene in the Fall.

    Good man - I was literally thinking of sipping BeaNorma Gene with a friend after work at a near empty bar when I wrote that post. I guess it was before the hype - that was an incredible beer.

    IMO, regular ol’ Eugene is the most under appreciated Rev beer (Cross of Gold a close second). You’re hard pressed to find many American versions of those styles that are equally as good.

    Your barrel program seems to be very successful. Are you increasing production volume to accommodate continued demand or will we see the same yields as last year?

    I think I’ve said this before here, but coffee Eugene is the perfect fall weather to-go coffee cup stroll the neighborhoods beer.

    I've done exactly this with Coffee Eugene in my reusable Starbucks cup.

    Great while handing out Halloween candy or walking around collecting it for yourself (I mean for my kids).
