    Thank you, Nostradamus. Any news on whether or not the sun will continue to rise each day?

    This may or may not be the proper forum and I may or may not give a damn about that.

    But I'm looking for an IP trade in MSP.

    I'm looking for one of each: '14 Darkness & Darkness '16.

    Will trade a '13 Darkness + choice of '15 Lunker, LC#4, BCBS '12.

    If you can meet downtown or NE I'll buy rounds.

    PM me.

    I hesitate to post this, but the Black Sheep in downtown St. Paul has Darkness on tap right now. The waitstaff wasn't properly trained so they were pouring full pints for us and only charging $7.50.

    Just take the day it was put in barrels, add 2-3 months and you have bottling day

    That happened to me there 2 or 3 years ago. They gave us full pints, before the manager finally noticed and told them it should be served in the smaller tulips.

    And that was back in the day when Black Sheep just charged a flat $5 for all of their beers...

    An employee at Haskells in Bloomington told me early February for BA Darkness. Not sure how reliable he was..

    Im sure you already know this because you talk to the Surly guys a lot. But they listed it as February on the Surly Calendar.

    Other things of note, Todd the axe man is now year round...apparently they are doing a non barrel aged pentagram now? Hell I always thought some was aged in red wine barrels. And barrel aged ten, which we can all hope is different than what they brought to ABR

    I'm pretty sure the BA pentagram is the wine barrel pentagram aged additional time in rye whiskey barrels.
    The regular should be the same.

    Connecting the dots with the TBD Brewer's Innovation nitro placeholders, I think the Innovation bottle spot is a similar placeholder for a TBD beer.
