I used to be quite active on the SS forums, then they sent me a bill to 'renew' my subscription for DW!!!! It was equal to what I paid for the game. I sent them a 'strongly' worded email and never went back!!
No they charge a yearly subscription rate, if you pay via. Paypal they'll automatically renew it every year. needless to say I cancelled it.

I couldn't find anywhere that offered the patched for the full game, only the demo.
Since the Devil Whiskey Renhall Log-in Page has been down for a while now and no one has access to the Devil Whiskey Toolkit, Patches, + some mods any longer, I have made them accessible on my personal website. If registered members of the Devil Whiskey can no longer access them from the main Devil Whiskey site, people wouldn't be able to use vital patches or make their own mods thus continuing / extending the life of the Devil Whiskey. I have the toolkit, patches, + mods available on this page.

It was every two years, Corwin, but they must have changed it.
Another issue I have with the Devs. Though they seem to be dead and gone; good riddance.
