    From beerpulse.com:

    The lycanthropes [read: people that transform into animals] gather under the full moon at Surly Brewing Company, awaiting their transformation. Though they fear the light, they yearn for the Darkness that will soon wash over them. Drawn together to share the night, their stories and their treasure, they know Darkness will soon be theirs. It is as black as the sky on a moonless night, but these souls aren’t so lucky. Their metamorphosis is imminent, but they all agree that it is a price they are each willing to pay.
    Each year, we select a different artist to create a Darkness-inspired monstrosity. Local artist, Brent Schoonover, brought this year’s shape-shifting beast to life.

    Probably my least favorite of the labels, but it's still pretty awesome. Of course it lands on a weekend I wont be able to go.

    I want "interlocking" Surly art. For example, a vertical of 5 years of Darkness reveals an epic mosaic of the apocalypse. Or maybe all the Surly releases for one year form up to make a secret map revealing the location of the new brewery. etc.

    I heard if you stare at the eyes of the zombie gorilla long enough the beer pulse watermarks turn into a 3D sailboat!

    I was guessing it would be a werewolf and I was right. Looks pretty good. Whats next? Ghost? Bat? Frankenstein? Witch?

    It's not a schooner, it's a sailboat.
