    Holy fuck.

    You have no idea how you just ratcheted up my excitement.

    I guarantee you have 2 other people willing to play.

    Also, if anyone is gonna dome a Tweak (or even half a Tweak), please save that action for 12:15 pm at the grassy knoll so we all can check it out!

    I'll do my best to hit the knoll at noon - I'll have a rainbow Central State Brewing shirt on, doubt there will be many of those there.

    Final list of what I'm bringing:
    Upland Pawpaw
    Rare Barrel Ensorcelled
    New Day Imperial Breakfast Magpie
    Pliny the Elder
    Jackie O's Coffee Vanilla BA Dark Apparition
    Sun King Whip Fight
    Rye Hipster Brunch
    Central State Lazer Raptor
    Central State Raznarok
    KBS

    I don't have quite as deep a cellar as some of you, but whatever I have left at that point will be fair game.

    First dark lord day, on my way to O'hare now. Reading this thread has been hilarious btw... spiking vintages.

    Here's what I have packed:
    The Rare Barrel Home Sour Home
    The Veil Crucial Crucial Aunt Aunt
    The Veil Master Shredder^3 (triple dry hopped)
    The Veil Casual Drinks
    Singlecut Rye Whiskey BA Heavy Boots of Lead
    Burley Oak Lost

    Hope that excites some people, looking forward to sharing some good beers. I'll probably be in a pink Zwanzie day shirt if anyone is particularly interested in trying those.

    I'll be at the grassy knoll at high noon. I'll be wearing a blue Bottle Logic FO T-Shirt.

    At first I was worried about bringing cool enough beers. Over the last few pages of posts my bigger concern has become whether I'll have a cool enough shirt. Ill be the guy in the plain blue t shirt.

    I think this grassy knoll thing might actually work!! On another note I had a dream about an actual dragon abortion beer being made and buying an absurd amount of it.

    Brewed and bottled in Novembers... 2015-2016. It was my first time bottling a 15.5% beer and it didn't carb well, but it taste great.

    Happy DLD 2017 Eve everyone!

    AccuWeather: Clouds and sunshine, 10% of rain, high of 72

    You know a thread is getting real when you get a Zapruder reference.

    Without the rain, I won't have an umbrella to open and close 3 times in the background.
