    As DLD approaches and now that ticket sales are over I'd like to announce that I will be running another round of the Single Bottle BIF at Dark Lord Day!

    The rules:
    You must let me know what you are bringing (or a list of possible things)
    You must bring a LARGE FORMAT (with very few exceptions) bottle of beer that is good and generally sought after. A good rule of thumb is that it should be rarer/more sought after than Dark Lord itself.
    You conceal your bottle in a paper bag or something similar
    You find me at DLD and hand me your bottle, I then hand you the bottle of the person who found me before you did!

    Pretty straight forward, LOTS of fun!

    Some examples of acceptable bottles:
    older vintages of Dark Lord
    Darkness
    King Henry
    Hunapus

    some things that are not acceptable:
    BB Plead the 5th (too small)
    Abyss (too widely available)
    Homebrew...
    Hellshire I (that shit was just awful...)

    Send me a conversation or preferably an e-mail ([email protected]) to sign up

    Remember, signing up is easy! Finding me is the real trick :stuck_out_tongue:

    All day... as long as I'm there of course :slight_smile:
    If you get their super late and I'm gone, worst case scenario you just keep your bottle!

    Ohh this sounds fun! I don't know if I have anything that'll be acceptable (as I haven't updated my cellar), but I will be with Cam for the greater part of the day... so...

    Dammit, I thought this was my chance to unload mine. Fun fact: Hellshire 1's average is 79. :astonished:

    Anyway, I'm in. Thanks for setting this up, Sparkling Bitch Titties!

    Hmm... I think cam should wear a shirt with that on it instead of some lame Urbancaver shirt.
    Also: awesome beer name.

    A great list of people so far...
    I have decided I will be wearing a shirt from a brewery that is often attributed with me so I'll be extra easy to identify

    This is an awesome idea. Wish I was going. I'd be in for sure. I think a rule should be that the bottles have to be handed off as if you're both spies in a hostile foreign country and you might have someone watching you :wink:. Like a wink wink, nudge nudge kinda deal.
