    This will be my first time. Quick question, has anyone else gotten an e-mail telling them to go to the customer service tent at the north gate to get their tickets since they actual ones could not be delivered?

    I think they sent that email out to everyone who ordered tickets.

    Got our tickets in the mail!!!
    Was heading to 18th street brewery, but after the unannounced ticket sales for the event and after not advertising on thier website this would be a ticketed event, our group is by-passing them...too many good beers out there to deal with that crap....heading to Flossmoor instead and then heading to Hampton Schereville for bottle share.

    Bringing
    Dinner
    Lunch
    Vicinity
    PtE
    Blind Pig
    Pompeii
    SoS

    And some surprises

    Taken the same in larger quantities to DLD

    Nice! Vlad the Second deserves more hype, I think.

    Anyone planning on going to Flossmoor Station Friday? I am trying to nail down my plans for the weekend... There aren't any bottle shares going on in my hotel that I know of... So I was hoping this was a good option.

    First DLD for me. Definitely intimidated by the quality of beer people are bringing. I was thinking some growlers from half acre, maybe a prop '14, square grouper, and hopefully some saison du fermier batch #3! Looking forward to meeting awesome people and drinking good beer!

    You can try it on tap first, but usually their bottle options are mediocre to good at best. Been a long time since they put out anything great. The cases usually last a long time but will sell out that evening sometime.

    I go there for the company of others, I think this is the first year we are skipping in the last 5. Agree on the beer.

    Where is the info on the Variants found for DLD? I'm not seeing it on the site.

    They usually officially announce them either the day of or the day before Dark Lord Day.

    The variants people are posting are based on details that have trickled out through other sources such as instagram and news stories.

    Looking for a group ticket (not GA) for my uncle who would like to attend with me. If you had a guest back out or whatever, BM me to discuss terms.
