Barley John's Cans

Dark Knight was out around a month ago and I believe I paid roughly $10 for a 16oz can. Heard Rosie's would be canned at some point, but haven't seen it. Would love a 4pk of that.

 

Dark Knight just saw release in cans a couple weeks back. Probably still some lingering out there, but they came with a hefty price. $10 or so for a 16oz can.

Not sure when Rosie's will be released, but guessing the schedule at the production facility is different than the 3 year rotation at the brew pub. Can't imagine them being much cheaper, if any, than Dark Knight.

 

I think Dark Knight sold out rather quick, so if you find a can, you're in luck.

 

I know that Tournament in Blaine still had Dark Knight when I was there a week ago so I'm sure there's still places around that have it. Pretty sure it was $10-12 so that's why it's probably hanging around.

 

I saw a couple of Dark Knight cans at North Loop the other day. Pretty sure they were in the $10-12 range too.

 

Wish i bought more, bought a few @$9.99, A soft silky BA porter with a mellow delicious Barrel presence.

 

Purchased 15 cans of Dark Knight about 2 weeks ago. Had one can and returned to the store the next day to make an exchange. I kept 2 cans in case my taste buds were off that night -- but I don't think they were.

 

Sitting on a can, haven't had it yet. What was wrong with it, in your opinion?

 

Perhaps it was infected, I'm not sure. But it just didn't taste right -- like something I never tasted before so it is very difficult to describe. I didn't get much barrel character and it was water thin. My wife loved it but she's not much of a drinker. I kept 2 cans in case my taste buds were on vacation that night and recently thought about cracking one open.

 

I just opened one for science and am glad to report it is fantastic. I am down to 2 cans and am not the least bit worried. I hope BeerPugz had the only bad can.

 

I hope so too! Glad you found it enjoyable.

Cheers!

 

I had a similar experience. Not all all what I remember this beer being like on tap

 

Just to update -- I opened a can tonight and it was fabulous.

So, the first time I tried it either there was something wrong with the can (infection), just a bad day for my palate, or something I ate prior to drinking affected my palate.

People say it's not worth $10 a can, but I would have to disagree with that. I regret returning 12 of the 14 beers the next day. Oh well, at least I have one can left lol.

Cheers!

 

If anyone is in the neighborhood, Island Wines (Cumberland,WI) has loads of Dark Knight left @ $8 each.

 

Be on the lookout for the maibock coming out soon. Two words. Double decoction. Really good stuff.

 

My brew buddy just texted me saying this is pretty good. I haven't had it but plan to look for it.

 

Bought 6 of The Dark Night during release had 4 within the 1st month all fantastic!! Just opened one today way over carbonated with a metallic tartness very little BA presence and mouth feel is off. Not exactly terrible just off with BA and velvet texture.

 

Cans.
