    I read that West Lakeview Liquors had some ZD the other day- whether they do now or not is a different story.

    Map Room consistently has it. Not always, but fairly often. At $5 a pint it's hard to beat.

    Firkin in Libertyville also seems to have a good supply, but not always.

    Thanks for the help. Grabbed some Revolution and Pipeworks bottles to take home as per some recommendations. Was hoping to grab some Half Acre but couldn't find any. Next time, I guess.

    On bad days I stand in the corner, rub my hands together, bob my head up and down, and keep repeating " I need my Zombie Dust". My coworkers are worried.

    I would look in Zombie houses, on top of the fridge and under beds. :wink:

    I'd say that's a little on the high side, yeah.

    I'm actually going to the brewpub to get a case for a buddy. If anyone wants me to mule some stuff hit me up.

    paid 12.99 for mine at whole foods today. of course i had the last one.
    no chance i'd ever pay over 16 for a six of this. As much as i enjoy zombie dust, i can sub it for plenty of other beers to crush on a 'daily' basis at a cheaper cost. definitely a dick move to charge 20. this new distribution or lack of shipments from the pub is a huge bummer. my local bar has it on top everyday so i get my fix there. unfortunately, it looks like i won't be buying these at retail since it's becoming so hard to buy now, even at the brewery. it doesn't help that in order to compensate to the consumer, some locations would probably sell this as a per bottle (assuming Vav wasn't kidding on a post he made say a month or so ago).

    Is there a Zombie Dust brewing schedule that would make it more likely to be available on certain days at the brewpub than others? I'm going to be staying at the in-laws about an hour away (in Indiana) during Christmas week and hope to bring some back east (went two separate days last year, was sold out the first day, got some the second).

    i don't know but your best bet is to check their site for their beer menu. it's updated daily. for example, it's there right now.

    i suggest you follow them on twitter or visit their fb page, they post there as well on zombie dust updates.

    Didn't they stop doing this? Haven't seen one in awhile.

    Thanks. It seems like in days gone by it was updated infrequently. Good to hear they are updating it daily now!
