Dark Lord (2018)

Sauternes is French for "Who took a turtledookie in my beer?"

 

"Some of us...sophisticated wine drinkers."

One of the few things I never thought I'd see spoken here. And there's some crazy sh*t spoken here.

 

I double checked and this is a legit translation.

 

War Pigs cast offs, they get all the bourbon barrells FFF gets whats left

 

Me and a friend are ubering down, that's not what concerns me. Getting back is more the issue, I assume getting an uber in Munster at mid-afternoon will be a nightmare.

 

Can't wait to see you all there. See my share list below.

MoRE – DDH KISS
Noon Whistle – Dubbel Giggidy
Goose Island – 2013 BCBS
Third Space – Java Blanco
Transient – BA NeckBeard Nectar
Perin – Unfinished Business
Pipeworks – Brown & Stirred
Tree House – Forty-Seven, Haze, Doppelganger, Sapp

 

I seem to remember it was surging insane percentages last year and it was tough to get one as well. I should just have my wife take me there and have her uber the afternoon until I am ready to go lol

 

Maybe it's a bulk discount thing with a spirit distributor. Take this gross shit no one wants off your hands and we'll give you a deal on the bourbon barrels.

 

To my knowledge, distributors don't house any "wet" barrels. They'd have to come straight from the distillery I'd imagine.

 

Per thread rules, I wasn't being remotely serious.

 

I'm only serious. That's why Turtle shit is in my future.

 

Top 5 FFF food variants (aka menu items):

1. Dark Lord Burger - This one is different from previous versions. They took away the pulled pork and regular cheese and added bacon and Dark Lord beer cheese. They also upgraded to a pretzel bun.
2. Chicken and Waffles - Sweet and salty with some Dark Lord hot sauce.
3. Philly Cheesesteak Poutine - Fries, cheese sauce, grilled steak, caramelized peppers and onions. Ka-pow straight to the taste buds.
4. Smoked Brisket Tacos (2 PER ORDER!) - Consistently a go to at DLD every year. The jalapeno sour cream, cabbage slaw, and pickled radish combine for a spicy yet cool flavor.
5. Chemtrail Ice Cream - Vanilla, pepper, and cinnamon. Cold, yet hot. I can't wait to try this.

Honorable mentions: The smoked brisket and pork shoulder. I've been smoking my own for years and have become quite a BBQ snob. These two offerings are pretty good, I'd just rather try some things I can't make myself.

 

I know the website said people can go in any group after their designated group has passed, but I'm just wondering if anyone has had any issues with that. I ask since one person from our party can't meet up with us until 2 and my wife's pair of tickets are designated for C, while mine are for D (insert 'can you give her the D' joke here). My original plan was to drop off the C folks and come back and Uber it back with my friend in Group D, but I was also considering just waiting for him to come in and then all going in together during the Group D time. Anyone try anything like this or is this just me being paranoid?

 

We didn’t have an issue at all last year, especially with a clearly marked ride share area.

 

Important question! Can the people scanning your wristband see your nickname associated with your wristband?

 

I'm also paranoid. I'm group A, but don't want to carry bottles around all day. I'd rather get them after I empty the share bottles from my bag. So I'll be making a game time call.

 

There’s a sneak peek of DLD Merch in three floyds instagram, Track Jackets and sunglasses!

 

Bottles I have set aside so far:

’17 Vig
Purple Puffs
BlackProject Atlas
Speciation Pleiotrophy
PowderKeg Balaton Heritage

 

This is the first year that I'm not starting early. That said, does the crowd thin out in the late afternoon? Say 3ish. I'm usually leaving around this time but this year I'm sleeping in.

 

You got my number, I think. Same group as last year will close it out again, at least that’s our plan.
