    I preferred the barrel aged stuff. It had a woody / boozy component compared to the regular which had a more floral component. Can't go wrong for 10oz of each for $11.

    I can vouch for this, had a 10 oz pour of each version this afternoon. Wildwood must have gotten one of the rare BA kegs.

    Really, it's cheaper than a retail bottle? Good deal, there.

    Well with Non-BA kegs dominating... and issues with tank storage - Could there be a second batch? That will be bottled and non-BA?

    I'm assuming non-BA?

    I live in Savage, and I never go to this place. Such a huge ripoff!

    I'm fairly certain I've even seen pints of Furious there for close to $10.

    Darkness has been cheaper per ounce on tap at most places for the past few years.

    I had BA and non-BA at Darkness Day, and they are vastly different from one another. Drinking a pint (!!!) at Moose on Monroe right now, and it is definitely BA.

    Edit: cost/pint and is it a mixup?

    Old Chicago Eagan: evidently elite enough a venue to sport a BA Darkness keg.

    Shit is amazing. Seriously. My jaded palate took a hiatus & I still can't find it. Gorgeous.
