    I told my liver to take a hike, that he needed to stay at home and think of all the bad things hes done, and that when I return home on Sunday, he would be welcomed back.

    I spoke with the hotel manager today. She's fine with drinking and trading in the lobby as long as everyone maintains their composure. She's also going to try to set aside a second room for drinking and trading. Keep in mind though that there is also a wedding party at the hotel. Don't be the jerk that ruins someone's wedding night.

    Ok....thinking of bringing roughly:

    A case of random 12oz Michigan beers
    A case of Founders Breakfast Stout
    2 or 3 local Michigan growlers
    About a dozen assorted bombers of barrel aged goodness

    So one question....how much is too much beer? (I am pretty sure I know the answer :wink:)

    That might be enough for the DLD line, but not the Hampton Inn!

    Am I going to be kicked out of these tastings for not bringing more beer than anyone knows what to do with? I thought I was bring a lot w/ two growlers and a 750.

    Haha you are definitely bringing a lot (especially if it's STL locals!). For me personally I just haven't had enough of a collection to really contribute a ton in the past so part of me is trying to make up for that this time...

    Nope. I personally will be pouring beers like it's my job, regardless of what you have.

    I've found that beer people like sharing

    Definitely not! I'll gladly share with anyone who comes up with an empty glass and is willing to BS with me.

    Some one needs to stay kind of sober so we keep a journal of what was opened. Crap....

    How do you think the hotel would feel about a 1/6 bar? I could bring 3f behemoth or new holland envious.

    My six Aussie beers made it home ok! I'll probably pull a couple things out of the cellar as well. Can't wait.

    Luckily I'll be bringing a Raoul Duke style notebook to document our weirdness.

    If you brought a sixtel of Behemoth you might go down in DLD history.
