Wow, I must've been passed out by the time that got cracked.

 

Legacy Liquor in St. Boni still has some. Legacy in Waconia sells theirs tomorrow morning. They said they have received almost 100 phone calls this week about Darkness, in fucking Waconia!. Probably be a line at the door when they open.

PS: Good to see you post again Lobo.

 

Yeah, I took a nap, awake again and back for more

 

I think there needs to be a Todd the Axe Man Day after having that on saturday. Darkness is awesome, but daaaaamn.

 

Acquired one bottle at the liquor store across the parking lot from my work today. I didn't even ask for it, but it was offered to me for about $21.

 

So we missed anop to hang out...

 

Yea unfortunately didnt make it there until after work on saturday and wasnt able to stay long. Just long enough to have a darkness and a couple todds. Was definitely going to look for you friday if i could have made it then. Should be another nova tasting coming up soon. Will let you know. Been a while since ive made one.

 

Called Haskell's Downtown on Tuesday and they said they were releasing Halloween at 9am. No idea if other Haskell's are doing the same thing but worth a call...

 

Haskall's in MG were taking names on Monday and got it Tuesday.

 

I just narrowly avoided being filmed by 12 when grabbing a bottle today. They wanted to interview me.

 

You mean you passed up the chance to scream FHRITP at them??

 

I grabbed two, drinking one this or next weekend with my brother while we brew up a batch

 

Oh my gosh. Why cellar this guy? It's drinking pretty wonderfully right now! This is a tip top example of a product with high quality and fine complexity. This vintage achieves blissful harmony. Thank you, Surly!!

 

Six of us split a bottle last night and it was drinking fantastic (just ask full pour Jake who downed about half by himself). Not sure what I like better though the BA Charlie Murphy or lobo's new avatar.

 

lakeside in long lake still had some yesterday. $29.99 a bottle though.

 

Seems like there's a ridiculous amount of price gouging going on out there. Best thing to do in that situation is to let them know you won't buy it at those insane prices, and that you won't be stopping by again for anything else. Stores need to know that people don't like to be screwed over.

 

i was a bit surprised by their price. they have been good in the past, as for other items. reasonably priced. being that i had picked up quite a few at the $19.99 and $20.99, i still snagged one from them.

someone previously commented about the MGM in Hopkins. i did the same thing. laughed at their price and walked out. the worst one by far i experience was either an MGM or Haskells (dont recall which one, as i hit multiples) that required you to buy a bottle of Pentagram in order to buy a bottle of Darkness.

 

Exactly, speak with your wallet. I hate these places that think that they need to try and get an extra few bucks off a bottle of beer. It's already pretty expensive as is for a pint and a half. Does anyone know off hand what 4 Firkins was listed at? I wont go back there after I did two make your own six packs that ended up costing me $34, it was all MN beer too, not random import and such.

 

Taking a page from the NFL. That's ridiculous...
