    I think this deserves it's own thread. It was briefly discussed in the Dark Lord Day 2012 thread, but this one is specifically for people staying at the Hampton in Munster.

    Anyway, who else will be there the night before DLD? From my understanding, there is an awesome bottle share that goes down. What do you plan on bringing/sharing?

    For those who have stayed there before, how does it usually go down?



    I plan on bringing:

    2012 Bourbon County Stout
    Pretty Things Our Finest Regards ('10-'11)
    The Brew Kettle White Rajah
    The Bruery Cuir
    Mikkeller Beer Geek Brunch Weasel cognac
    New Glarus Raspberry Tart
    Central Waters BB Barley Wine ('12)
    Central Waters BB Imperial Stout ('11)
    Hoppin Frog BORIS 100
    Hoppin Frog BA BORIS
    Deschutes The Stoic
    Weyerbacher Blasphemy
    Founders Nemesis 2009
    ...and a bunch of other Ohio goodies.

    I honestly won't get to all of these beers on Friday (will save them for DLD), but if anyone wants a pour of any of the above beers then let me know!

    I will be there Friday night - would love to try a Nemesis 2009. I might have a Nemesis 2010 kicking around still. I also have a Boris Royale and Naked Evil BA Barleywine, amongst others. Also some Bitter Valentine and Cafe Royale from Williamsburg Alewerks.

    that would ruin surprise, hard to get Surly growlers, but possibly. I know there will be some Bruery, Alpine, Town Hall, Steel Toe, and several others.

    The way it goes down; Last year we put a sign on our hotel room door and told people to just walk-in. I poured an 09,10,11 vertical of KBS and we had a small bottle share in the room with some other residents. Then we moved down to the lobby and sampled some of the finest beers I have ever had the pleasure of tasting.

    PLEASE KEEP IT CIVIL! or the hotel may not let us do this stuff anymore.

    I will be bringing;
    12' Decadence
    Hoppin Frog BORIS ROYALE
    Cigar City Big Sound
    Rivertown Pestilence
    Bambic

    And probably a few more
