    Three Floyd's Dark Lord Day, 2013

    This past saturday was the 10th year for the Dark Lord beer-release-turned-festival at Three Floyd's in Munster, IN. It's their version of a Russian Imperial Stout and has seen a good amount of time at or near the top of "Best Beer in the World" charts. I happen to live the next town over, so I've been going since 2007 but this was my first year kilted. There's usually one or two blokes in a Utilikilt and an occasional tartan kilt, but I didn't see any others this year. I didn't see this thread from a few years back until today, which made me decide to post some pictures.

    Between the Fraser Ancient Hunting and the funny tshirt that I bought a few weeks ago, I had over 50 people ask to take a picture with me (which got a little old, honestly.) I swear there were a few with men, too. But none of the men have sent them to me or posted them online. I feel a bit like Zardoz with all the pictures of the lovely ladies.

    First, a picture of myself and the missus. Wearing a Stillwater Nightstalker sporran and belts that I made myself (I still have to dye the edges)


    A coworker of mine and my wife's best friend towards the end of the day. My feet had had enough at this point. I'm trying to preserve my modesty. The hose were bought from Kilted Carver around the time I joined the forum in October. They've become my favorite.


    And a random lady that I met in the parking lot. She was the most excited to see a kilt out of anyone I met that day.

    Smile when you say that!

    Will have to check out the brew, if it's available on the Left Coast.

    The beer was fantastic. I've been going for 7 years and this is the best batch in recent memory.

    Unfortunatly, it's only available from the brewery for that one day. You can usually find someone willing to trade a bottle, though.
