    God I felt like such a dick for knocking it as my first Dark Lord but the sweetness was crazy. When I dropped my glass, I just kinda looked at it on the ground, looked back at the taps, saw more sitting there on the table and said Uhh, nope. My friends who were in line as they taped it were overcome with excitement and bought two each. As I decided I was done with it I looked to them and said "you guys really gonna finish those?". Both of em said they regretted buying two, not that it was hated, just too much for one serving.

    I normally say drink fresh, but these variants are in the 5% that gets better. I tried every variant last year (except 11 muerte) the vanilla 11 was the best, flowed by all 4 12 variants. The 14 ones were too hot.

    How do the Dark Lord T shirts fit? Big, small, true to size?

    I got two 2x shirts and they were on the smaller side of 2x for me. I am also bummed that my one shirt is misprinted and I didn't catch it when they handed it to me.

    According to the handbook, misprints are more metal.

    You can probably contact FFF and get that switched out, I would think. GreatGazoo is right though; you've got a collector's item now.

    This is actually kinda funny.. because it's usually the 4th weekend and next April has 5 weekends.

    It's not a severe misprint but I am anal. It's minor enough that I'd feel bad for hassling them.

    It's always been the last weekend in April, even when there were 5 weekends. Lookup 2005 and 2006.

    I'd feel the same way, but you did pay money for it, and if it bothers you, it's probably worth looking into. I'm sure they've been hassled over less. :wink:

    Yeah I always thought it was the last Saturday regardless of whether the month had four or five weeks.

    The Hampton in Schererville is also booked up solid for that weekend.

    I tried online and didn't see one.

    Too early to start one?
