Darklord '08

[alemechanic]

Well from what I remember from the DLD event. DL '08 has achived what DL '07 was hyped up to be. No more teriyaki!!!!!!!!! and a damn good brew. I'm not gonna try and remember the details but I think that FFF has gotten it right. I will post again tomorrow after I crack another of these beautiful black sludges.

P.S. the oak-aged from '07 was phenominal, mellowed out a lot since last year. Great to drink (instead of cook with).

Ok still haven't gotten around to it but tomarrow is brew day so gotta drink something right?

I am totally fascinated by this beer, but have never had the chance to taste it.

To those who have had the pleasure of the Dark Lord - can you describe how it compares to other huge RIS's that we might be familiar with - namely Alesmith's Speedway Stout, or Thirsty DOg Siberian Night, Victory Storm King, etc?

Anyone know of an extract based recipe that I could try out that might come close?

Yummy, chewy beers - just in time for fall!!
