Darklord Day 2017

Still tweaking the list:
Bells 9000
2016 Darkness
Surly 10
La Rulles Estivale
Abyss Scotch
Apex Predator (refreshing change of pace)
Westvleteren Blond (as long as I don't drink it tonight)

After last years massive shitshow of rain, need to breakout the sunblock. Bringing a 1st time DLD buddy so I can make it home in one piece.

Looking forward to a long day tomorrow.

 

Bringing:

GDDC cans
Two if by Citra cans
No Rules '17
18th 3rd Anniv. RIS
White Chocolate
Rue d'Floyd
Crack the Skye
Crowler of the FR/Floyds collab if I make it out there today.

That's my packing list.

 

Does anyone know if Dragon Abortion has a Spotify playlist yet? I really would like to drown out @Bugsmcl 's voice on the drive...

 

Just left Dark Matter (Friday coffee routine). Was hoping they would have DLD stuff for sale but no dice. Must be patient.

 

Yeah they won't sell you anything before the event. But look for a lot of what was sold at DLD on their website a week later.

 

I'm going to mention that to everybody I see Saturday.

 

Between Friday and Saturday:
2011 BCBCS
Imperial Boysen Bu
Biere du Pays
Florence
BB Black Maple
BB Skipping Stone
Dynamo Fuzz
Okie Paradise
Bright w/ Nelson

 

I absolutely need that coffee cup and if it really only is $5 with refills that is amazing.

I also need to grab some snacks tonight to shove in my bag....

 

I guess I always assumed it would be "Puff the Magic Dragon" on repeat.

 

Is there valet this year?

 

After reading some of the comments about the BA share at the Grassy Knoll, we are definitely going to have a repeat of Garbage Can Guy.

 

I fixed that for you.

 

Yes, from the Valet they will escort you to your private cabana where beautiful women will feed you pretzels and perform body shots with BA adjunct stouts.

 

I will be bringing this. Nothing real crazy.

 

They don't do crowlers at Forbidden Root. Can get a 32 oz or 64 oz if you drink it before you get in the fest.

 

Does 18th street do anything special tonight? Worth going to?
I'm staying at the Fairfield inn Hammond, 1st time DLD her for me. Looking to have fun tonight. I'll be in town around 1pm today

Bringing
M43
Boxer
Waldo's special
KBS
17 no rules
Transient
Honey stone
Zero discipline
Flightless
Their new release yesterday can't remem.

Thanks

 

I'll try to be at the grassy knoll at noon. I'll bring two BB RIS from Cutters Brewing. And I'll have half a dozen bottles of DL ranging form 07 to 14.

Whoever had the homebrew... I'm sooo down for a taste of that.

 

think this will be close to final list

16 Abraxas
17 Huna
17 Last Snow
17 Wide Awake
15 BA Narwhal
Serendipity
14 BCBS
Rye Hipster
GDDC

likely wearing bright orange sky dive Chicago shirt and will try and find my way to the grassy knoll, looking forward to sharing some great beer!

 

I must say, the Rye BA HBOL is pretty outstanding, I thought the non-BA was fine, but didn't wow me. This one though, I immediately went back to the store to get more. Looking forward to sharing.

 

Depending what time the rest of my group arrives and gets through the Group B allotment pickup time, I might stop by around noon if I remember.

My List:
Rye Hipster
Hipster Brunch
No Rules '16
Indeed Rum King
GDDC

Still deciding what else I want to add to the above...

I'll be in a navy/red White Sox hat and wearing a shirt that more or less is the adult version of the Kool-Aid man.
