    Not sure if this should be in the Great Lakes section instead. I just wanted to say good job to the guys at 3floyds for the slight changes that they have made. The reconstruction of the brewpub, the bottling dates, increased distribution of Zombie Dust, etc. Yeah, I know some people will be all like, "Well, they should've done that stuff a long time ago", but imho they could've stayed where they were at before and still been comfortable. I don't know, there's just something awesome about something you love giving you more reasons to love them. Now all that's left is decreasing those prices on their barrel aged beers lol.

    Did they fix their label issues?

    Big thumbs up to the guys at Three Floyds.
    Bottling dates are a great addition. They could have sat on their hands and sold a shitload of Zombie Dust.
    Kudos for the improvements.

    Never had their beer before 2013 but I've been pretty impressed with everything I've come across. Just tried the bottled version(from Three Floyds) of their collaboration with Surly and Real Ale called Blakkr. It may very well be the best black ipa I've ever had.

    BEST BREWERY EVAR!

    Dark Lord is the best stout ever made and Bubblegum Head is the 2nd best IPA, behind ZOMBIE DUST.
    And their super metal.

    Super flawed on purpose I hope? I do agree with the great beer part

    Agreed..... Now if they would only put those DLD tix for sale at the pub it would be all sunshine and rainbows!

    I kind of wish Zombie Dust was still brewery only.

    They rarely ever brew wrong. Backmasking could very well be the best oatmeal stout out there ...

    Postive FFF thread gets 13 posts. Negative ones get triple that.

    You guys are doing it wrong.

    Will someone please do me a favor and visit @Vav at his castle? He is very bored and needs your company. I'm too far away to pay a visit at the moment.

    Man, where was this? I've never seen it for less than $10. No doubt that since the switch, prices have gone up, but I would live to know where you were grinding if god $8.

    I believe it was either $30 or $35 a case a few years ago...those were the days.
