    They had to get rid of Darkness bottles to make room for Pentagram in the warehouse.

    Any around? I tried a few places today and no luck. Was told at a well known Mpls store that Surly was offering it to required a case of Smoke be purchased for each one of Darkness. Guess Smoke isn't selling well this year?

    they should put smoke in cans and price it like furious or bender. I would buy it much more often.

    they should put darkness in cans too. and price is like bells or founders. yeah, that would be cool.

    and 750s of bourbon barrel darkness.

    however, this would then eliminate the magic of Darkness Day, which would be a bummer.

    I very much enjoyed Worthy Adversary, but it's no Darkness. Not even Stone RIS or Expo stout. Or Abyss. It's good but not worth mention with the best, locally available RIS, IMHO. It would be great if it was more cost efficient to be sure!

    Completely agree. Not bad, but not in the same league.

    I think you're missing the point; the point is that worthy adversary likely costs the same or more to produce as darkness, so why the huge price discrepancy?
