Enter Darkness

I'm a big fan of Surly Brewing Company and can't say enough about how excellent their Furious ale is. Now it's time for something completely different.

Darkness.

Get yer growlers...Lets talk about D-Day. That’s the day we will be selling 750 ML bottles of Darkness at the brewery on October 25th. Here is the latest info…

•   We will open the brewery gates at noon on the 25th.

•   Cost is gonna be $100 for 6 bottles. Tax included and cash only.

Or if you're closer to the U...

I'm looking forward to a new taste sensation and the bottles—Surly does great design. My buddy Darcy does all of Omar's silkscreen work, and there is some very cool limited edition swag. See you there.
