Dark Lord Day (DLD) 2015

If you had a 40 ouncer we'd have a trade!

 

#8 in line for Group A! So excited waiting for the door to open!

 

Anyone grab a variant yet?

 

Can i bring a normal sized backpack? This will be my 5th year in a row going just dont know if they changed anything

 

If anyone has an extra group ticket I'm your huckleberry.

 

What are some of the guest drafts on tap now?

 

Looking for a bottle of the Hot Sauce. Will pay cash or trade beer, your choice? Will be there around 2. Message me if you are interested?

 

no pics yet? cmon !

 

Let's see some bottlesssss!!!!!

 

It's pouring. No one wants to subject their phone

 

The internet is apathetic to your plebeian phone problems! get a mighty case to protect your accessories!

 

Open wallet and insert fist

 

Dark matter line was much more organized this year with line fences. Got all I wanted but I was in that line within the first 100. People walking off with full cases of goblets and steins, not going to be good for late comers but fuck it.

 

Scored some Vanilla Bean although it was a tough choice between that or the 2 year Brandy Barrel version. Will post a pic later.

 

Not gonna lie, this irritates me a little.

 

Home from the event to prep for evening plans.

Rain alternately sucked and was fine. Forced people in line to be more social under tents.

Got in the glasswhalezbro line that I said I wouldn't go in because I was one of the first through the gates. Got my pimp cup while a friend got hot sauce for us. Guess you could buy multiple hot sauces? Don't know if there was a limit.

Group A line went fast once the doors opened. No variant wins, so $50 not spent.

Checked coffee merch/hot sauce lines after I got out of group sales. Coffee line filled the cattle gates, went west back towards the the pub, and then wrapped around north towards the entrance gates. If I hadn't gone early, that'd be a lol nope situation. Hot sauce line filled all the cattle gates by the food tents. Glad the smoked meat guys were yelling that you didn't need to wait in the hot sauce line to buy their stuff, otherwise I'd still be waiting to get brisket.

Tents were very, very crowded, as expected. Guest tap lines were very short. Sad to miss most of the day, but kinda glad I'm sitting this year out for the most part.

Here's to DLD: Under the Dome 2016

 

Marshmallow variant is that this year!?

 

For info FFF just sent out this update on the twitter

No open containers in and out of the premises.

 

The boxes for the vanilla bean variant said vanilla bean marshmallow on them. Also the bottle says barrel-aged with vanilla beans on one side and marshmallow on the other side.

 

Not sure how to post a photo of my DLD haul lol...
