    Sounds nice and all, but the cold weather always keeps the riff-raff out! :wink:

    Meh, I'll probably be near the front again, usually pretty fine up there.

    Yup, everybody move your plans up about 4 hours if it's going to be warm. :wink:

    So who's up for a pre bottle share bottle share amongst those lurking just out of sight of the volunteers, waiting since noon for 3:30 to roll around?

    Who needs a tent? You can drink all night and sleep on Sunday! :wink:

    Happen to be visiting Minneapolis (first time!) starting tomorrow. Hopefully can extend the trip until Saturday afternoon to stop by DD. Almost no chance we'll be able to do the Friday line or get there early Sat. unfortunately.

    How are lines for taps usually? Trying to get a sense if it would be easy enough to stop in during afternoon Darkness tappings and hang out for a bit.

    I think they have taps posted somewhere. They look good! You can experience Darkness 2014 before the people in line at Stub and Herbs that Friday night too.

    Oh, I did see the list. Was wondering instead about how lines/crowd will be mid-afternoon, since very unlikely we'll be able to make it in the morning, if at all.

    Lines and crowds are very manageable. Won't wait more than a few people for a beer so well worth stopping by.

    Not sure if there is a better place for this but does anyone know if Darkness is going to hit Chicago distro again this year and if so do you know when?

    Coming in from Iowa and attending my first Darkness Day. Been visiting MN since 1993 however. Fantastic state.

    I think a mod came in here and did some major cleanup, it looks as though it may have been one of the casualties.

    Are you crawling out from under your bridge to savage beers amongst the masses?
