Dark Lord (2018)

Man, have you had Super Juicy Hop Juju? That beer is insane

 

I have, and it certainly is an experience!

 

Impossible?! I mean, improbable. And perhaps impossible for this year. But if you tell me that it would be impossible for someone to show up to a share with a keg of PtY next year, I’d say that you, sir, lack imagination, a set of lock picks, and a getaway hovercraft.

 

Which group are you in? I have a Supplication I'd bring to share with you.. I'm in E

 

thank you

@Buck89 see i know what i'm doing here, rest assured..

 

Don’t agree at all. Younger is still a masterful work of art.

 

Never said otherwise...I agree, Younger is a standard, one that many excellent brewers can and do meet.

 

Vast majority of huge IPAs are garbage. So no, it’s not.

 

So...Younger is not a standard to which others can be held to or strive to attain in their craft?

 

Have they announced the DL BBQ sauce variants yet?

 

I am in group A so there is a pretty good chance we may not cross paths during the festival. I am staying at the Hampton down the road and that's the bottle share I plan on attending.

 

In Columbus, there is usually plenty of Hop JuJu on tap and in cans to be found and I agree, it is very good. One of my favorite IPA's actually. Regarding Pliny the Elder, there are many Ohio IPAs that definitely stack up well against it. Examples: CBC Bodhi, CBC Creeper, Fat Heads Headhunter.

 

I really do need to check my Untappd check-ins before requesting something. Case in point: it turns out that I've had Supplication before. And what a surprise, I had it during a previous DLD hotel bottle share.

 

It's not Supplication, but I plan on having Consecration with me, and I am group A. I think our group is planning to be there around 7:30. I'll be the guy with a beard, a brewery t-shirt and a black backpack.

 

Should be easy to spot

 

While I'm still formatting what I'm gonna bring, RR sours (Beat) and Elder will defiantly be in my backpack!

 

Those rebellious beers

 

Added point for easy identification...slightly bulging belly.

 

I thought Dia was delicious and better than some of the others last year. It's just a lot of people don't like that strong peaty flavor mixed with the sweet DL base. It tasted like a liquified smoky BBQ chip to me. I really liked it. Definitely one of the most unique flavors I've had out of a beer.

 

I've heard from a very reliable source that group D and E will be able to pick the spice they want to add to their dark lord...cardamom, pink peppercorns, Himalayan salt.....I would go with dill and lemon pepper
