    Forgive me for not doing forum search before posting this, but there isn't much time. I have a buddy who is in town briefly and wants to pick up some Zombie Dust, but there is none left at the brewery. Any idea where a good place to search for it in or near Munster, IN?

    I bet there's some somewhere at the brewery.

    None at brewery apparently. Maybe near Wheaton/Barrington? That's where's they are tonight

    FFF rarely distributes ZD. But, he might try calling the Liquor Stop in Highland.

    I was making a smart-ass comment since that's where the beer is actually made.

    More seriously, I think you need to get lucky to get bottles of Zombie Dust. You need to walk into the right shop at the right time, and that includes the brewery. I've seen some people advise during the work day on Tuesday-Thursday, because it always sells out fast.

    In Bloomington it arrives on Wednesday with a 2 bottle limit. Occasionally you can get an entire 6 pack. Trying to get some on a weekend is probably going to be tough.

    @pjvie don't know if your friends are still around or how much they're looking for but I've got a case of week old ZD and will hook you up with a sixer. I'm in Oswego tho(not close to Munster but about 30 mins from Wheaton). Hit me up if interested.

    We distribute ZD almost every week. Use the beer finder on the website for the best chance of finding it. http://www.3floyds.com/distribution/

    Parsing words, me thinks. I don't think folks should dance around the obvious truths:

    I think its fair to say that ZD is distributed weekly; its also fair to say that the amount of ZD that is available for sale from outlet to outlet is limited, due to obvious brewery capacity issues etc. And, once ZD leaves the brewery, 3 Floyds loses control of it, and cases that arrive at liquor shops sometimes never make it to the shelves.

    Doesn't matter if its neither / nor - the fact is that 3 Floyds simply can't make enough ZD, nor distribute it, in a fashion that makes everyone happy. Someone will be unhappy that they can't get it....
