Surly is a hot local brewery and has release parties around some of their seasonal brews. Darkness, a Russian Imperial Stout, is the hardest seasonal to track down at your local liquor store, so a good idea to head down to the release party to try to grab some direct. I couldn't quite talk my wife into camping out the night before (first 1,500 people were able to buy six 750ml bottles each), so we waited in line for the 4pm release of an additional 1,200 bottles.
Second Chance Darkness Line
Getting close to the door after an hour or so in line... lots of people behind us, but they luckily still had 1,200 bottles remaining...

"... and this one is about a massacre"
"....its called Wounded Knee." metal band played while we were waiting in line for Darkness... couldn't hear what my wife was saying, but somehow the message "you owe me big time" came across clearly. I decided I like Loud, Soft, Loud better than LOUD+1, LOUD+1, LOUD+1.
