Can't wait! Hoping the beer I just brewed can compete with DL next year after it has time to age . If it ferments well it should be about 16% abv. I can't wait for that either.

This can be arranged.. I also have a 6-tap keggerator. About to keg up an Imperial Smoked Porter (10% abv). Also, the beer is officially at 16% abv. Went from 1.150 to 1.030 SG. Seriously though for some of you Georgian's, my mom has a place in Dahlonega as a second house (she moved there then got married and is living in KY with stepdad). I could make one happen in either, or both, places. Beer, Bourbon, and Cigars. Can't beat it.

Also, for my 100th batch (next is my 84th) I will be completely insane and scaling that 16% abv beer up. Shooting for 25% abv.... I'm serious. The grain bill will yield a little over 20% abv (70lbs of grain, 40% efficiency, at 1.05 qt/lb, 1st running no sparge), assuming fermentation goes well (A LOT involved in getting that right, like injecting pure O2), then I will be adding Kentucky Sorghum Syrup and Sucrose to push the yeast to it's absolute limit. We'll see how that goes...

Ok, this sounds insane. Where in KY are you again!? If you have people down for the 100th batch, do let me know!!

I'm often down in Louisville and Lexington for work and always looking for more people to herf with. I'll actually be in Louisville all next week (Mon-Sun) doing events during Derby week. Hit me up if your in the area.

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.

Yes you have to pick the group you want. A, 10am to 12noon. B, 1pm to 3pm. Or C, 5pm to 7pm.

Those are the times to be in line. They are hoping this will cut down on the wait time.
