Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

I am currently in Lexington but from Louisville. Moving back to Louisville in June. Maybe I can throw something together this summer once I get settled in my new house. Hoping I can find a nice one for a nice price. That 100th batch won't be for a couple months or more anyway, but a nice get-together for it sounds like a good idea. We can enjoy it's smaller brother (Monolith, the 16% abv stout), along with plenty of other brews. It will be an alll day brew, since I will be doing 2 more beers off that same mash. 2nd runnings should yield another big Stout. 3rd maybe an Extra Stout, not sure. I'll let you and other know when I figure things out.

I was thinking about this earlier, as much as I want to smoke cigars at DLD, I will be trying so many awesome beers I don't want to wreck my palette with some cigars. I love pairing the two, but this is a little different. I can't wait though. I may bring one for later in the day.

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

Sounds good man, look forward to having an opportunity to try some of those this Summer as I won't be able to attend DLD this year due to prior commitments. I'll gladly bring the cigars for the event!

Do let me know once things start shaping off so I can be sure to put it on the calendar.

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

Will do. Should I post a thread in this section or the Herf section? I guess the Herf section would be more ideal.

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

For this thing coming this weekend, you homosapiens are pretty quiet....
None of that "I can't believe it's almost here" business, or "Three more DAYS!"
Is it cancelled or soething?

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

4 MORE DAYS OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!111


I wonder how differen't it's going to be this year. Much less crowded than last year I suspect, since it's an admission ticket this time. Last year was nuts.

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

Just a reminder: I'm willing to help any of you guys use an extra ticket if one should end up needing that assistance. :tu

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

Weekend was AMAZING. Got there Friday night, hit up the brewpub. Had 2008 Bourbon Barrel Moloko, and a Bourbon Barrel Alpha Klaus. Also their Ham on Rye beer, pretty solid. Oh yea, Zombie Dust too, which is awesome.

Started the morning off with a 2010 KBS bottle, got right in the complex, hit up the brewpub to get Vanilla Bean and Bourbon Barrel Dark Lord. O...M...G... Hah. Those beers were phenomenal. After that we went to a tasting tent and starting pouring and sharing with some other people. I can't remember what all I had. I did have a little GI Bourbon County Rare (Pappy Barrels, which was fantastic). 09 Nemesis, Hoppin Frog Boris, some Surly beers, and a bunch of other amazing **** I can't think of right now. It started to get a little fuzzy after awhile. Flawless weekend. Definitely better than last year.

Also, Dark Horse Double Crooked Tree on draft, some Jolly Pumpkin beers, etc etc.

At DLD we were posted up by the silo with the DLD banner on it, under the tent in front of that.

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

What a day!! It was great seeing Hootie, Tim, Wes, and Gary again. It was also nice to see a newb experience a DLD. I hope your friend Keith had a good time Hootie. Thanks again to Wes for the ribs and Gary for the hot dogs. Hey Hootie can't wait for you to open that Golden Bottle!! I can't forget Hootie for being so generous with his beer again.

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

I already drank the bottle. :r

I bring more to the Shack for the table. :tu

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

Already, huh???????? Bet it was good!

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

Still got it.:D.

I was messing with QT.

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

Did anyone have problems getting to use both tickets they bought??

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

I used two tickets to get a friends beer and mine. They were two separate groups. If it was the same group you would have had to get back in line.

Re: Dark Lord Day 2011
 

That's awesome.. I mean we all knew that it wasn't going to be a problem but I was curious to see if they tried to enforce the 1 ticket per person policy.
