    So I've been going to DLD for years but it is really the only beerfest I do. Planning on bringing
    2013 Dark lord
    2011 Stone Vertical Epic
    English bitter homebrew
    Russian imperial stout homebrew
    Hard cider
    2011 Caramelized mead

    Looking for a group to hang out with as I'm going stag and would like to find others to share with. I'm in group B but plan on showing up at 8:30 to line share.

    Figure the cider and mead should be line shared before trying to go in the gates

    I think that everyone should start posting what they will be having for breakfast. That should help this thread get closer to 100 pages.

    I'm going to the Egg McMuffin and hashbrown route as well.

    First time going - very stoked for this. Packed my backpack and almost threw out my back - worried the bottom of my backpack may give way. Bringing the following for DLD (mix of MI, Chicago, and other goodies):

    2015 Kuenhenns BB 4D
    2016 Acadian Groove Canadian Maple Porter
    2016 Perrin No Rules
    2016 18th Street Bitches Bank
    2016 Pipeworks Sunburst Peacock
    2015 Westy 8
    2015 Westy 12
    2015 Russian River Consecration
    2015 Revolution Deth's Tar
    2015 Dark Horse BB Plead the 5th

    180 oz in total - good to go.

    Looking forward to the share to lighten the load in the backpack. Cheers!

    Actually we pre-made some breakfast burritos--minus the hot sauce. Hitting the road at 3 or 4AM tomorrow morning with some large coffee thermoses and scarfing down those burritos as soon as we get hungry. There may be extras...

    Currently in line at the kiosk. They announced that they aren't selling any DL. Still have Zombie Dust (so far), also a special blueberry sour.

    Interesting - the north tent area is now a paved parking lot. That's new - much less mud!

    I don't recall any food being sold, but I was on the first bus out in the a.m. last year, so it may be a little different a little later on.

    I suppose some kiosk misinformation might just create the furor we need in the push to 100 pages. Did anyone else see the person who walked out with a bottle of Armadillo Handjee of Biggleswade?

    Gotta make sure you don't eat so much that you are pooping at DLD.
