    I'm not sure what you even mean by releases. When they put a new beer in bombers for the first time they'll say "hey we got this new beer its in bombers now" and that's that. Barrel aged releases only happen like once every 4-6 months. They don't do what I would typically call "releases".

    Completely random. You'll never have any inkling. Though they do try and push Zombie Dust out before major 3 day weekends, that's about all I got. If you can parse data and establish a pattern, please let me know : https://twitter.com/3floydswatcher?lang=en

    So when does Behemoth usually hit distro? I've been saving up my pennies for it this year.

    Regular Behemoth has already hit distro in Chicago area. You will likely be able to find it at most Binny's. BA Behemoth has no been released and will not be distributed. The BA Behemoth is FFF kiosk only, at the brewery, and should be getting released shortly.

    Thanks for the offer. It'll eventually reach the market up here I'm just itching to get my hands on one.

    Just wanted to say that I drank some Floyd Division 4 IPA, while I was in Madison for work, and it is delicious. I loved it and I'm not real big on IPA's. It just hit the sweet spot for me. It is still on tap at Mr. Brews, in Madison, if anyone wants to give it a shot. Highly recommended.

    ^ apparently a few variations of Floydivision will be packaged (and i assume distributed) in the near future, including #4. I've only had #1 and #5, so looking forward to trying the rest.

    I saw the FB post about division, but no real information. What's the story?

    I wasn't that impressed by the one I had.

    3 Floyds has made a series of pale ales with experimental hops. Each beer in the series is numbered. They bought a bunch of glass bottles and designed some labels. Now that beer is going into the glass bottles and you'll be able to purchase them and trade them for other beers or set them on a shelf and admire them in your basement.

    Not sure how many days this has been the case, but the brewpub currently has Fat Heads Hop JuJu on as a guest tap. I believe that was a GABF gold medalist (maybe??) a few years ago

    They had a Fat Heads beer dinner at FFF on Monday night, so wouldn't be surprised the leftovers are on draft. Did the same thing with Cigar City and Warpigs events there.

    Good call, forgot that event was Monday night. Hoping to stop by for dinner and have a JuJu/Behemoth evening

    You should get the $15 ramen dish.... Anyway, Imperial Blud was on tap Saturday morning if a great 18th Street RIS is your thing. Also the teku glasses were still available - but they put Zombie Dust out as we were finishing up lunch, and I didn't want to wait 20+ minutes in line for a glass

    And if anyone hasn't tried the Steam Buns yet, you are doing a serious disservice to yourself. It may be the best thing they've ever had on their menu imo.

    Brisket tacos put up a fight too although they aren't available right now

    The first time I ever went to their pub was two years ago around this time and had the pork shoulder sandwich. It was kind of open face style with rice paper on top. Spicy aioli and I believe grilled kale. Good lord it was excellent.

    I've been to warpigs too and I think that Floyds actually does a better job with their pork than warpigs.
