Darklord Day 2017

Were you wearing Cubs gear? I think I had to turn you down on that Huna pour right when we walked up to the line. I wasn't quite ready to take my first pour.

 

There was BA Moloko when we got in. Checked another stand, went back to get Moloko and it was gone. Asked the girl pouring and she said lasted all but 10 minutes. That might give you an idea.

 

I was not. I was sporting the DA shirt and a black Solemn Oath Old Order hat.

 

Ah, well that's 2 pours of Double Barrel Huna I could have had. WORST DARK LORD DAY EVER

 

"Bury me with my valuables" guy.

 

GTFO! Was that from 2017?

 

Hahaha. Glad my relaxation mode made someone's DLD photo album!

 

Yes sir lmao!

 

NM, somehow the shorts and sun didn't give it away.

Anyone have video of him waking up?

 

I definitely cracked open a Skeleton Witch at some point in the BA share area. Had an extra from a trade that never happened so we figured it was appropriate to bring it back to its origin point to share.

 

Does this mean I should have regret for getting a Handjee? 1st world beer problems.

 

do you remember where or when we met? trying to remember, met a few Saturday its all a blur.

 

At the very least, it's hitting top 5 most ISO easily. I swear I'm seeing it as often as I'm seeing Handjee, which is really weird. It was tasty though, not my favorite variant however.

Right?! That's what I want to see.

This is important, we must find it.

 

The keg for Chemtrail Mix kicked about five people in front of me. *insert sad face*

Sadly I missed you guys. *insert sad face* Hopefully next year we can meet up.

We met briefly as I was walking through the tent share. Only talked for a minute or so. You'd have better luck remembering my wife's bleached blonde hair lol.

 

Have to second both those points (as many others seem to have done):
a) I brought way too much beer. I shared 750 ML of an OEC sour & Trillium PM Dawn, a Noon Whistle crowler, and I think a 16-oz Mango Guppy. Two bottles and another IPA or 2 I could have just left at home.
b) Hell yes I had a cold one yesterday. I'm close-ish to Mikerphone, so picked up a Pale Pauper. A lighter APA was a good move and actually got me feeling a little better. Then my wife and I drank one of the stout bombers I didn't end up sharing at the fest. Happy mother's day to her I guess...

 

Is the guy in pic 8/9 a friend of yours from Miami? If so we talked and bottle shared for a bit under the tent.

 

7-page catchup thoughts:

I must have been about 30 people behind you in line, I remember seeing your wife cuz that bright Cubby blue stands out amongst all the black beer and metal paraphernalia.

Totally agreed. Brought 14-15 bottles and cracked all of two. Maybe if I was up and in line at ass:30 in the morning...

Agreed. Variants are too cool for everyone not to get one.

Agreed (again). Could invite more theft as well as now there could be vintage vs. Variant stealing.

As I admit to saying before the fest (stupid me trying to be helpful on this thread) variety is key. Bolded for truth right there.

There should only be three rules for DLD:

1. Be excellent to each other.
2. Don't be a jagoff.
3. Seriously, don't be a jagoff.

 

I'm making this shirt for next year.

 

But will it be part of a new, yet to be named metal band shirt?
