    Interesting, I really enjoyed Sanctuary 20. I got a lot of chocolate and walnut, and thought they blended well together. Different palates are different I guess

    I am going to buy different types of walnuts at the store today because I must have forgotten how they taste.

    If I get any similarities to sanctuary 20, then I stand corrected and will state that Rev did achieve what they were going for, even if it did turn out to be an abomination to my senses, both in smell and taste.

    this is the first scene that popped into my head, albeit with a completely opposite reaction

    I walked around the brewery for hours yesterday and everyone was pulling me aside specifically to tell me how much they loved Sanctuary 20. While not the prettiest beer, it was my favorite of the night outside of Ten Year Beer.

    Cuvee sold out. Limited availability (65 4 packs) of X Year as of 2:30 yesterday from their Facebook post... so probably not much.

    Very, very limited distro of X Beer expected.

    Edit: Rev literally just posted SOLD OUT of X Year beer at the Taproom as well. Some availability at brewpub.

    Ryeway also gone.

    If you want Ten Year Beer cans, go to the Brewpub as that’s the only place we have any left. Have brunch while you’re at it :grimacing:

    Will both cuvee and ten year be available at the brewpub today?

    Did every card swiper have issues with Rev rewards? I got an itemized receipt to upload to the "missing points" section of the site, but I'm wondering how long that process usually takes. I've never had a rewards issue with the handheld card swipers at a release before.

    I bet if you bought the brewery you'd earn enough reward points to get free beer there for life...

    In terms of distro, will this be on the same scale as say, deth by plums? or smaller?

    What is the normal pattern for the limited distro beers hitting the market? Thinking this week or next?

    In the past I have seen these mostly hit the week immediately after the brewery release, with some stores getting it the second week after. Last year some stores got their deliveries before the official release, but waited until the next week to sell it.
    I see some Binny’s may have it now:

    Well, Andy is an awesome guy and easily one of the most talented Brewers I've ever met.

    Low Dive forever!

    Cannot believe we just got a drop of X in Cleveland. To have Ryeway all over this year and now X, it's just a crazy time to be alive.

    Also, popped one X and for me, it's one of the best bw's I've tasted in my life. It's everything for me, it's perfect and I will be buying more.
