    North Shore Distillery makes a decent one.
    Leatherbee's Malort is nice as well, if yer lookin for Wormwooded booze.

    Dld2016 speculation: lol just booked Hampton inn in Munster for last weekend in April next year and weekend before. And the weekend before is set up, no discount codes allowed, must pay$170 per night in full NOW and no refunds. Pretty sure dld2016 is gonna be the second to last weekend anyone else heard anything more definitive?

    As far as I know, DLD has always been on the last Saturday in April, no exceptions. I doubt that FFF has a definitive schedule for nexts years yet, and certainly not definitive enough to let local hotels know a year ahead of time.

    I booked for the last weekend in april, but it is completely transferable and refundable. I'm not too worried. No refunds is pretty crzy, considering that some people who get a hotel won't get dld tickets.

    Yeah I called back to the Hampton Inn to cancel that 4th weekend and Just kept the last weekend, they le tme do it since I called a few minutes after booking and the website didn't tell you upfront they were chargin you in full until after you submitted. So I asked the lady what the deal was and she said "There is a big festival every year at a brewery up the street, and the managers don't want people cancelling or transferring rooms, so they are requiring payment in full upfront, with a charge in full cancellation policy" Luckily they let us cancel since we called immidiately. But like Klevin said there's not guarantee of tix, so $400 right now seems crazy.

    I really hope it's on the 30th now. Is the manager that tired of selling out the hotel every year? Must be one giant hassle to have rooms cancel and immediately fill back up. I'm booked for the 29th and 30th, and will cancel over a month in advance if no tix come my way.
