Dark Lord Day 2016

I have plenty

 

dat $100 roll of Sacagawea's

 

I laughed out loud thinking about someone paying like this.

 

had a roommate that used to pay taxis with the sacagawea's after he ran out of cash at the bar and it was the only currency he had at home. usually ended up withe cabbie pounding on our front door until about 5AM.

 

"yes - $20/4"

From the DLD twitter. Additional tokens/tickets can be bought 4 for $20. So it looks like each token/ticket will be ~$5 or the amount of most pours last year.

 

Pour size depends on the beer. They were all $5 in the past (maybe $10 for DL variants), sol instead of different prices, they just scaled the cup by abv/price

The normal floyds stuff like zombie, alpha King, maybe even panzer wolf and such will be in 12-16oz cups.

The more special stuff like CBS will be 9oz.

I know my very first beer at dark lord was a 12oz solo cup of King sue.

 

I guess I should have been more clear. I was specifically talking about the various Dark Lord pours. They all seemed to be in the 9oz squat cups. And I think you're correct in that it was $5 for regular and $10 for BA.

I didn't do any guest taps last year and don't recall from previous years.

 

So we know it's going to rain, but what's the mud forecast/prediction? I heard it was bad last year. Should we expect something similar?

 

Wheres that map when you need it

 

Expect a 100% of stepping in puddles at some point throughout the day and at least 50% of the grounds covered in mud

 

Lace the boots up tight. I saw a lot of shoes get sucked right off by the many quagmires that formed.

 

And a 100% chance of finding someone in completely inappropriate-for-the-weather clothing wearing only 1 shoe.

"In order to get one, you have to buy one of the $200 tickets — which sold out almost immediately — that guarantees drinkers, among other things, a four-pack of Dark Lord and a randomly selected 22-ounce bottle of the rare barrel-aged varieties."
Hmmmmm...

 

Here we go again!

 

calculating the money I spent on rain gear to see how many taps that could have been.....

 

Liquor jacket or actual jacket..that is the question

 

So assuming a beer is $5 and I want one more beer, I must have 4 more beers? I like it!

 

LOL +1

Buckle in

 

First Dark Lord! Ha! First noob move...choosing Group E so I wouldn't have to carry around the bottles of Dark Lord all day...... Didn't even know about a bottle share or a first come first serve variant. By choosing E, I got a ticket right away and everyone I was going with chose best available. Flying solo.

Plan on bringing some local stuff.

Country Boy-Sinkhole Stout, Paw Paws Red
Against the Grain-Bo and Luke, Citra Ass Down
and also
Blushing Monk, Avery Tweak, Abyss Rye

All my whales are bourbon

Hoping try SMS and any Hill Farmstead. we can't get em here.

 

I'll bring some SMS for the lowly shit bricks in Group E (me.)
