Three Floyds shortage

Someone assassinated them with a Tupac?

 

Tupac is dead? When did that happen? Did he drown in BCBS?

 

Shit, bitch, Piña Coladas are over! It's all about the mojitos now.

 

They actually lobbied the Ind. Gov. and succeed to increasing the amt. of beer that a brewery can produce and still be considered a small/craft brewery. I believe it was a couple of thousand barrels increase, but still not enough. Yet Sam Adams is considered the same as 3Flyods in being a small/craft brewery, only diff. is Mass. state laws allow for many many more barrels to be produced by this "small craft brewery"!!!

 

They just finished expanding the Brewery about month and a half ago

 

There has been a two case limit for a long while now.

 

bought 4 cases when I was at the pub a couple months ago. 2 cases with my card and 2 with my wifes. mmmmmm

 

Was in Madison this past week and popped in a shop someone had told me about here....found a single bomber of Dreadnaught sitting in a cooler.

 

how much bigger is it exactly??
Didnt look much larger to me when I was there.

 

When I was there in May, apparently the back right (relative to when you walk in the doors) had just been added. Seemed like it added seating for about...20 people. Ish.

 

So they didnt make a major expansion to the brewery that would increase production right?

 

I can't speak authoritatively on that...but I'm inclined to say no.

 

They expanded the To-Go, very few seats. And the brewery a bit also.
Makes it flow a lot better, but nothing that gave them much more capacity or production.
At least that's what my impression is.

Headed there for lunch!

 

Between my two local stores, I can usually manage a 6 of Gumballhead every week or two, but I have to get there pretty quickly after the truck arrives. Lately AK, Pride, and Robert even seem to be drying up.

 

"Is anyone else having trouble getting ahold of Three Floyds beer? " That's hilarious.

The 'shortage' started about three years ago. That's the last time I was able to order as much as I wanted and get everything I ordered. Demand FAR outstrips supply and has for years.

 

I stopped in there yesterday for late lunch about 2:00-ish. Lot was full and place was hopping. Bought a couple cases of ZD and 2 bottles of Broo Doo. Had a great tasting lunch and dessert to go along with some Snow Weasel and Broo Doo and went back to buy a nice work shirt and a couple of glasses. While I was eating, I'd estimate about 24-30 cases of ZD left the building... flying off the shelves. I asked the guy how much they usually sell in a day...he said "does a shit-ton qualify as an amount?"
They're probably having shortages just trying to keep up with Zombie demand...lol.

 

Just hope they have some around come the weekend of the 26/27th..
Would the "This is my first time here. Please sir, could you find some more?" speech work.

On a positive note, Broo Doo showed up in southern IN today, was able to grab a couple of bottles. Store I was at had 3 cases. Also got in at least a few 6pks of P&J, AK, and Robert, no GBH though. Had roughly 8 different 650ml bottles to choose from. One point of confusion, they keep the Apocalypse Cow in the cooler (have since they got it in), still have 3 bottles.

 

I don't know when it was instituted. I went the week prior to Memorial Day. It was the first and only time I've been, and I was able to get 3 cases of dust, a case each of Gumballhead and Alpha King. I got 2 cases each of Blackheart, Dreadnaught, Arctic Panzer Wolf, and Live a Rich Life. Everyone in SE Pennsylvania was absolutely thrilled. Meanwhile, there were more than a few vehicles that looked like THIS:



No...that was not my vehicle. But I watched as several FFF employees helped dolly this shit out, and they didn't have an issue with it. lol

 

If we get three to four cases of one of the four packs then ill case stack it because my Indiana door is full, could have two doors if I wanted, and I don't expect to have several faces for Three Foyds every week.

 

The last time I was there he wife and I watched people in pickup trucks grab the six cases per person of Zmbie Dust, but that was like three or four months ago. Dolly's worth of ZD were loaded into vehicles the entire almost two hours we were there.
