    What time are people planning on starting Friday? I was thinking about opening a Black Tuesday and a 2007 Mephistopheles side by side at around 6:30 or 7 to kick off the evening... Let me know if you want to participate. If someone wants to bring a vintage wws or the like thatd be sweet too.

    Damn, looks like some awesome bottles will be getting opened Friday - can't wait.

    Would anyone be interested in trading a DL 12 for a Town Hall Masala Mama growler Saturday at the Hampton Inn? I am flying in from Minneapolis and will have a fresh growler; I am also muling for someone so I won't be getting any bottles of DL for myself.

    This list is just getting better and better, I can't wait to try all these amazing brews. I will be cracking my 07 Abyss, and starting off the evening with a vertical of KBS (Possible 09-12) among others, I will also be bringing Fresh White Rajah to trade out for some other IPA's. Can't wait to join you all for a tasting for the ages! Cheers!

    Wow this sounds like it's going to be a blast. We have a group of around 10 people coming up from Saint Louis that are staying in the Hampton so I'm sure we will see all of you there. I'm not sure what exactly I'm bringing yet, but I'm planning on:

    Growler of Masala Mama (Courtesy of Birchstick)
    Growler of Perennial's Mint Chocolate Stout
    1 750ml bottle of Perennial's Savant Beersel (100% brett w/ grapes and aged in wine barrels)
    Possibly others. It doesn't sound like we'll have a shortage of beer.

    I will be in this group and will be bringing some stuff

    I know I'll have a Bruery Cuir and 100% BA Cuir, and some other stuff. If Schlafly AIPA is on I'll grab a growler of that.

    I'm in the group of people Jarpo mentioned. I'm sitting in Sydney Australia at the moment and have a small selection of beers I'm bringing home that will make it with me. Pretty good chance this is stuff no one has had before. This sounds quite fun. For the record, we did something similar, with a much smaller group, at the Holiday Inn in Schererville last year. We nicely asked the girl at the front desk if we could use the lobby and she just GAVE us the key to the conference room. Hopefully the staff at the Hampton is as receptive. Does anyone have Diamond status with Hilton? I did until last year. I'd almost guarantee using that card would work if all else fails.

    I am with the St. Louis group. I will have a growler of Schlafly BA Imprial Stout, as well as a couple bottles. Not entirely sure what just yet, depends trades/orders landing.

    fifth growler landed today, hello Hop Venom. Town Hall has growler koozies, that actually clip together. So being that I already have 7 growlers for DLD, I think I might make a bandelier of growlers, ala ....
