    I can’t wait to walk up into walMart with my DLD tote, and just wait in the cold beer aisle to stunt all over people buying bud light.

    Do that at Gene & Jude's and you're likely to get dropped.

    I'm predicting 1st batch of DL aged in Distilled DL barrels. We know this is going to happen sometime....maybe that explains the shortage of DL last year? Or maybe they distilled the infected stuff...I'm also predicting KBBS level resale prices for it.

    I'll take a triple chicory coffee variant...doesn't even have to be BA. Would love to taste a DL with a hefty counterpunch of bitterness.

    ...and a French press idea has been born.

    I'm not really a coffee drinker, but I definitely think it helps counter the natural DL sweetness. That said, it is kind of weird considering the base has coffee in it.

    Maple barrel to really bring out the sweetness. Maybe cut with maple barrel aged muscat.

    Under! Maybe they will finally just make a few variants that people actually want?? Who am I kidding, there will probably be 24 variants and vintage bottles...

    I'm just catching up here, but you guys know, for sure, that the rest of those early accidental tickets are going to be caught up with, refunded and invalid. It's just a matter of time.

    I'm guessing 7 or 8 variants:
    For sure: Handjee, BADL, Ronaldo, Muerte
    hopeful: Fixed FVM back in bourbon barrels, coffe cognac
    You know its coming: some sort of wine barrel treatment nobody wants
    wishful but probably a couple years away: DL aged in dark lord whiskey barrels. I think the whiskey will need to age 4-6 yrs before they dump the barrel so I just dont think this could possibly be ready

    Would be pretty cool if the early tickets either did not come with any bottles or the invalidate them after the others sell out on the 31st...

    FFF: “We dont give a shit.”
    You: “Just wait. Any day now.”

    Good luck with that.

    Few things on this board are funnier than how mad and red you got over these presale tickets.

    What would be really nice is if, instead of 4 bottles of Dark Lord, they did 3 bottles plus 1 BADL that was guaranteed for everyone. That way, no one is too bummed when they miss out on a variant and get stuck with 5 bottles of regular DL. Maybe with the expansion, this is something that could feasibly be done in the near future.
