A #surlyBrewing 2025 #darknessDay collab, not sure if we’ll find this one again. Bottle share with my Dad, what better reason to drink it NOW?

Darkness with Friends: Schell’s Beer brings us an imperial #stout aged in #tattersall bitter orange liqueur barrels & Evan Williams #bourbon barrels.

Not much orange on the nose but a really nice interplay of snappy citrus orange and dark flavors in a rich body. Let it warm!

Forgot to post the tasting lists from #darknessDay - wish I could’ve stayed all day!

The BA Cherry Vanilla was sold out 😢

And we’re gonna wrap #darknessDay #stouturday with a 2018(!) Darkness vintage pour. Sublime with boozy bourbon and chocolate spiced body, smooth at 18%+ and everything one could want on a beautiful afternoon!

Cheers to my wife for attending and putting up with me. 😎

I’m the guy in the Guinness shirt…

Wooohoo it’s #darknessDay tomorrow so today should be light-er-ish. And just one glass…

#boulevardBrewing The Sixth Glass BA Belgian quad - Smooth and boozy with a sharp opener and a malty caramely tart finish. A fine Quad, one glass or six.

#barrelAged #quadruple @beersofmastodon

Oooh boy, two more sleeps until #darknessDay

#surlyBrewing #craftBeer @beersofmastodon

Time to crack some more 2024 shelf-dwellers. Purchased on #darknessDay, it’s time to enjoy!

#surlyBrewing Darkness is big and rich with chocolate, coffee, dark fruits, and an unusual hoppy finish for an imperial #stout

12% high gravity, not my favorite Darkness but #itsAlwaysStoutSeason

Been watching Kaos on Netflix, so happy that #surlyBrewing Darkness 2024 helps explain the Minotaur to my wife

Thus sayeth the label:

King Minos of Crete, on the advice of the Oracle comissioned a labyrinth to hold the Minotaur, a communion of man and beast. With the head of a bull and the body of man, it devoured any who dared enter until Theseus, armed only with sword & string, slayed the Minotaur and escaped the maze.
You, the modern-day Theseus, need only use wit & guile to obtain Darkness, our limited-release Russian Imperial
stout. The waves of coffe, chocolate, raisin and toffee, welcome while the on -traditional wave of hops surprise.

And we can’t stress enough - don’t bring your sword to a liquor store. It's weird, dude.
