I've obviously never tried this brew (read a few comments above).
I can't decide if I love this style or not. I thought Samuel Smiths Imperial was mighty delicious though.

Is old rasputin considered an Imperial, because I did not enjoy that one at all
Yes old Rasputin is an Imperial stout, it's very mediocre. I like Stone's russian or DFH WWS. Avery's Czar isn't bad for the price. Also Ten-Fidy is quite tasty for a reasonable price.

If you are not a stout drinker then this beer might not be for you. It is a sipping beer but the flavors are so complex that you don't want slam it. It is best if you share with some of your close friends.

I have tried the Ten Fidy and I have to say it is pretty good.

I am jealous I can't make DLD but maybe I will be able to make the Cigar City Hunapu release and be able to find someone to trade with.

Where to begin?
See what you missed last year Tom?
Great beer, chics mud wrestling and tossing each other into the pond, Kristin's Crazy Legs, Herfin, More good beer, the pond...
What fond mamories.

I already have the trip planned. I gotta get brewing to bring some stuff of my own too!

I wouldn't miss it for the world.

Tickets went on fire sale St. Patty's day in years past. I'm clearing my schedule for St. Patty's day eve. Last year I ended up with 11 bottles, so Albert, Peter... you'll be taken care of if you so desire. Hell, even if you get tickets... someone will stand in line for ya while drinking beer and smoking cigars. It's a tough gig, but just for you fellers...

I would love to be able to make this but I'm afraid to even buy tickets as the work load my department is under right now leaves no guarantee of off time(even on weekends) through May.

Yeah I'm gonna be there. Going with a couple buddies, and I hope to meet up with some guys from here.
I've been to the brewery before, but not for Dark Lord Day.

Tim - Is this the high water to which you are referring?

Peter, you know me all too well my friend.
I actually was there to help those young ladies out of the water, but could not move since I was standing on my tongue. Where are the photos with my shoes in them?

Edit... I found something strikingly odd with this picture... I did not know that cold water would shrink cotton.


The infamous Stu Shoes:

I'll have to settle for some of the sweet nectar that is the Dark Lord.

Too bad...we miss you, and it looks like there is more sweet nectar there than just the Dark Lord's.....
