Darkness Day 2014 Thread

France 44 putting it out at 5pm, limit 2. I like when stores do this, gives us working fools a chance...

 

We are now out at Ace.

 

Srems like places are getting like 4 or 5 cases

 

I was at Haskells in White Bear.The guy said I was in luck, they just got several cases delivered and he could sell me one, which is the limit. Then he went back to get one, and came back out and said they aren't selling them until tomorrow!

 

South Lyndale @ 5:30, limit one.

 

Brooklyn Center Liquor has it as of this morning, $24.99/bottle; two bottle limit.

 

Really sucks to hear all the stories about shitty people. As a rookie to Darkness I had a great time. Met lots of people and shared many a beer. Thanks to Surly, the volunteers and everyone else for putting on an amazing party.

 

Sorry to hear that you got shut out. What those people did was messed up. However, waiting from 6am on is hardly "all morning."

 

I missed out on the wristband by two people and was pissed to not get any bottles, I didn't want have you miss out in case you didn't get any on Saturday. Cheers!

 

Surdyk's has 4 or 5 cases as of 11:15 am. $22.95 (I think) per bottle limit 2.

 

Only $23? Are you sure you were at Surdyk's??

 

Thanks to Ace for letting me nab that last bottle!

Random side note: I like last year's artwork better than this year.

We'll see about the taste though..

 

Sid's Bloomington $18.99, 2 bottle limit.

 

Chased down third to last bottle at Brooklyn Center Liquor 2. Even got one of the totes.

 

Ill make a blanket statement that stores in the downtown/uptown area most likely have gotten their shipment

 

1st Grand has Darkness and Ale Jail is doing it in 2 waves. One now and one at 5 for those who of us who actually work and can't chase trucks all day. RUN!!!!

 

I just wanted to thank everyone for posting on here. I am pregnant (now a week past my due date), so my husband and I missed Darkness Day this year after camping out the last four years. We are happy to have been able to grab a couple bottles today thanks to the post about Big Top. We are looking forward to enjoying one once our daughter finally arrives. Cheers!

 

@BigBadBeerSnob Can tell the tale of the old man threatening to kick some ass early Saturday morning. Lol.

 

Big Discount in Eagan (by the outlet mall) may still have a bottle or two left at $20.99. They also had 2012 Darkness.

 

Congrats to you, and I echo this - thanks for the heads up and the help that goes around on antsy days like this. We all want the same thing, and helping each other is great.
