    The staff is probably handing out flyers to tell all of the customers how much some bottles of the first batch sold for on the secondary market again...

    I am. I may have another of the releases in the fridge, I'll see if I can make room for it. Didn't try Old Faithorn yet tho, we can all find out how good 6 week old pale ale is together.

    First post and first DLD - real pumped for #AllThingsDA.

    Planning to bring the following:
    17 Parabola
    Port Brewing Mongo DIPA
    Hop Butcher Destination Moon
    Hop Butcher I Want To Believe
    Pipeworks Devil Firefish
    Half Acre GDDC
    Half Acre Vallejo
    Cornado Mermaids Red
    Cornado Islander IPA

    Maybe others? Should I ramp down the IPAs and add more BA Stouts? Was thinking of adding some variety, since it is a BA fest. Thoughts?

    I am guessing there will be a lot of people that forget sunscreen and pay dearly. I will not be one of them.

    The aftermath photos must include most sunburnt.

    Variety is good. As long as you're willing to share you'll find takers, and the afternoon weather should be more hop-conducive. Enjoy the fest!

    Forty minutes to go until I leave work to get my broken rib x-rayed again. Then I'm heading home to get everything prepped. Trying to figure out what I want to open from the cellar to drink whilst prepping.

    I'd like to point out that by noon, most us will have:

    - woken up with some form of a hangover
    - consumed three to six hours worth of imperial stouts and wild ales
    - and eaten tacos, poutine, brisket, and/or white castle

    Grassy knoll? More like gassy knoll.

    I'm thinking there will be a lot of Galactic Double Daisy Cutter cans strewn across the Munster business park tomorrow. Beer is damn good.

    Ask the doctor if he can write you a script for your dog to be a service dog then you can bring him/her to the fest to mule all your beer.

    Someone mentioned the water stations around 20 pages or so and I was wondering if anyone can confirm it's just the bottles for purchase benefitting The Humane Society or is there a fountain we can refill empty containers with?

    Last couple of years it was just bottles being sold to benefit the Humane Society as far as I can remember.
