Surly Darkness Day

By Matt Dowgwillo - Oct 22, 2012

I remember a time when lines formed around the block for the first release of “Darkness”… A limited release beer that has gone for (on ebay, no lie) $1500 for 2-750ml bottles of the stuff!

This Surly staple day has since become famous, and now is another reason to party. It’s an all-out buy Surly stuff day.

Want to try the Darkness? This may very well be your only opportunity to try it! Limited release means if you don’t get a wristband for the day, you probably won’t have it (though we have see it a few times at Grumpy’s NE)… Anyway, the release has turned in to quit the party! An full day to celebrate Halloween and the DARKNESS, a beer created by rocker-turned-head-brewer Todd Haug.
