Yes, very limited, and $25 for 25.4oz bottle. I would find a bar that has it on tap if you just want to taste it.

It doesn't last long on tap.

Mac's is out as of Friday night.

I also heard the Happy Gnome is out as well.

I know a bunch of Old Chicago's got it right away, but I'm not sure if they still have any.

I hear sunshine factory is going to be tapping their keg soon.

There is a post on Surly's facebook with updates on who has it on tap, but definitely call to make sure.

BTW, I'm looking for Goose Island Bourbon County Stout if anyone has this, I'd be willing to trade some Darkness for it.

**Kracka** · 11-12-2012

I have a High Life tallboy available for trade.

Goose Island Bourbon County Stout tastes like poop.

The first and last time I had dark beer was Surley. Not sure which one but it was icky. Tasted like plain old dark coffee with more bitterness. Doesn't really fit my taste bud. Maybe im not getting the good stuff?

**asshanson** · 11-14-2012

Maybe you had coffee bender, that is good stuff.
I just bought two excellent beers, Stone Ruination IPA and Bell's Java Stout. The Java Stout just came out for this year and it's really good, I recommend it if you like a strong coffee flavor, it's pretty dry as well.

Love the bells java stout

What's PBR? Everytime I go to the liquor store I always walk pass the fancy beer isle so I know nothing about them.

**asshanson** · 11-15-2012

PBR = Pabst Blue Ribbon. not fancy, it was a joke.

Will do guys. I'm excited to try them.

It is pretty crazy how fast they are popping up here, definitely not complaining!

The story on Boom Island is pretty interesting. There was an article in the tribune on them earlier this year.

PRB as noted above is Pabst Blue Ribbon, it's super cheap, American piss lager. It's like somewhere below Miller Light, Mich Golden and Bud light, but just above Old English, Micky's, and Milwaukee's Best.

I've just tried these two Southern Tier brews last few days... I like em. quite good
