    Thanks everyone for being generally supportive of this new idea. Some of the things we used to do are not sustainable any longer from a personnel standpoint, but when we have to take something away we do our best to add something new on the convenience side of things. As you can imagine, costs of everything are through the roof for us, but we didn’t want to push the prices of Deep Wood beers higher during what will be a tough year for the economy. This sale really helps us plan and hopefully you feel the benefits of the trade-off on your ends as well.

    We’ve added the last of what we can handle to the page, more than we’d planned, but can’t go beyond this amount. Hopefully anyone who was disappointed has one last chance to pick one up.

    Hopefully he is. I imagine with the added supply of bundles that certain releases (I'm looking at you DBVSOJ) may become really short lived when single release sales go live.

    I got one. I had emailed them asking if I was still VIP, and they said yes should have gotten the 6/30 pre-sale email. Timing was such that they had just added more to public link so I bought immediately. Would likely have been out of luck again had I waited to ask, as had no reason to believe they would add more. And am not on here as much as used to be, so never saw one thing about this until tried to buy this morning.

    Curious to hear if you have an estimate of the percentage of beers like DB VSOJ that the presale will account for. I know it's probably a while away from packaging and exact volume may be unknown, but I'm assuming beers like that are the limiting factor in Season Tickets available, right?

    I did not get either email (VIP presale or GP sent this morning), nor were they in the Spam folder.

    I do get the monthly emails (including the 6/29 email for July) from Revolution, and have received all previous VIP advance sale / fight club emails since Rev started the program a few years ago.

    I reached out and was able to secure the Season Ticket last week, and received an email confirming my Season Ticket with instructions from Retail Specialist Rob yesterday.

    This is a great offer, and I really appreciate Revolution's individualized follow-up to help those of us without email(s) navigate the process.

    Depends on which release but probably not more than 1/3 of the smallest release.

    My last post was meant to respond to this question. My bad.

    Will any of the July DW releases see distro?

    Legit question that is not addressed on the Rev site, but I'll venture to say that the only one may be a little bit of Thundertaker that will get to Binny's since they supplied the barrels.

    Mineshaft Gap and Vanilla Deth were distro’d so there is precedence that Lumberstruck and Coconut Deth could be…and they stuck around on shelves a long time.

    The question of distro is definitely a legit one that in the past several years Rev has been very clear about (i.e. wide, limited, none). I've been meaning to ask this question about which beers fall into each category as I haven't seen that spelled out this year.

    Good points. Smaller batch cans for Lumber and Coco may mean no distro.

    Distro?

    Coconut Deth (Yes)
    Thundertaker (Limited)
    Lumberstruck (No, cause it’s small)
