    I know they don't announce they are on sale til day of but do they post when pub opens or is the time totally random?

    pretty random, i think it was usually on Sundays in the past couple years. They just post first thing in the morning on FB/Twitter, but also even a friday was in there.

    The day I got mine last year they tweeted at about 730-745am that tickets would go on sale at 10am. I got there at about 8:15-8:25 and was about 15-20 from the front.

    I actually thought you meant there were some skanky bugs at the brewpub. I need to keep drinking....

    Cool. Then when you're getting gas in Madison, you can check your phone and find out how they're gone already.

    If I remember right, last year brewpub tickets lasted days. Also, usually don't need gas until we hit the Des Plaines Oasis.

    The past couple years they have typically announced in person sales between 20 minutes and 2 hours beforehand. It usually happens on weekends, but has also happened on a Friday. It can be any weekend between now and DLD or even multiple weekends. Only FFF knows (if they have even decided).

    They did not. The first couple days sold out fast. The third day lasted several hours, and it was a work day (Friday).

    Weeks actually, I think last year you could actually just walk in by showing up to DLD without a ticket. Also, the only limit on BADL is the limit on $50 bills that can fit in your wallet.

    I guess they'll be releasing it while the Head Brewmaster is @ DLD then..

    They weren't on sale today. In a cruel ironic twist I had to drive to Rock Island for work & stopped at FFF for lunch so that I could sit there knowing I'm not getting Dark Lord tix...was there from 11:45-3pm & no tix
