    Decently big news in the 3 Floyds world....

    https://www.facebook.com/ThreeFloydsBrewpub/posts/10151680022550053

    Three Floyds has gone through some seriously great production expansions as of late. We have designed and installed a new Braukon brewhouse in addition to overhauling our bottling line. All of these infrastructure improvements will increase production and further ensure Three Floyds' high standard of brewing excellence. The new brewhouse is fully functional and our brewers are working around the clock. The kegging and bottling lines are operating faster than ever. This being said, these improvements did not come without a cost. The brewery lost only a few days of production. The benefit being that our loyal Three Floyds' beer drinkers will have greater opportunity to get and enjoy our ales and lagers. Please be patient as we reinvigorate our stock and pipeline it to you the loyal fan, the loyal bars, restaurants, retailers and the distributors that get it to you.

    Great. I still won't see it in CA, but I'm glad all you lucky fuckers will have more to choose from.

    Can you elaborate on some of the plans to expand distro? And if there are no such plans, WTF not?

    If there are no plans it's most likely because they can barely supply their current markets.

    Glad to see Three Floyds is still in the beer business... lol... Seriously, from what I read online about a Braukon brewhouse, it sounds like Three Floyds has stepped into the 21st Century of beer making.

    I've seen it around Indy a handful of times (and ZD), but by no means is there a steady flow. it's usually just the standard bombers, P&J, RtB, and occasionally Alpha King.

    There was a time last year when Indy was even getting the one-off bombers like Topless Wytch and Zes Zes Zes, but that dried up quickly.

    Send it all this way!

    Especially some of that, what is it? Piney the Elf? It's brewed by those guys that make those funny tasting beers.

    Most of the stores around north east Indiana have been blaming dark lord day on their shortages for the past few months. Bought it for a couple of weeks but shit anymore I just go for headhunter.

    So, because we have good breweries out here, I'm not allowed to be envious of your access to beers that I really like? That's laughable to you?
