    Hi all, I was just wondering what the deal with this drink is. I see BA lists it as "year round" but I've never seen it before at Riley's or anywhere. I was just wondering if this is available anywhere in Madison ever? I was only spurred to make this thread because the Union South in downtown Madison randomly has it at 6.50 a 10oz pour... it was my first time trying it ever and it blew me away more than I can express. I want some SO BADLY right now.

    Sorry if this is really nooby, I know zombie dust is a very popular brew so apologies if its seasonal or just not available here etc. Just curious after trying it and seeing other FFF products in riley's :slight_smile:

    Outside of drafts, it's basically only available at the brewery, and Chicago.

    Yeah, even in Chicago it's very scarce.

    I'm going within the next few weeks and can grab you a case and mule it for you. Possibly meet somewhere near Kenosha or somewhere easy for you. BM me if you're interested

    I was told here in La Crosse that 3 Floyds is no longer distributed in WI. Used to be able to get Alpha King here pretty easily. Is this true, or were they just trying to get rid of me?

    They definitely have alpha king all over the place in madison, and pride and joy.

    Neither of those are Zombie Dust... FFF wants it to be a "special" thing and keep the hype up. FFF doesn't distro ZD in bottles to WI, no matter what other bottles they do. It is a stone cold fact.

    It might not be distrubted to the distributors in your area. It is still in milwaukee, racine, madison, and kenosha and their respective counties and you might possibly find it in walworth county.

    I was answering his question of whether FFF distributes to WI (he asked specifically about alpha king), not arguing with you about the availability of ZD, I already got my answer for that.

    It was on tap at Dexter's last week, and Tipsy Cow the week or two before. I know Alchemy had a keg recently, too. Seems like everybody with a craft beer bent in Madison has gotten a keg in recent weeks.

    FWIW, Dexter's lasted several days. I saw it on their beer menu Wednesday and I went there Friday night for fish and it was still going.

    Eddie's in SP had it last week and likely still has it..... take a look at the upcoming tap list for a few rare treats!

    Three Floyds pulled their distribution from the La Crosse area, but I was talking to the owner of the Side Note bottling shop and he can get very limited Three Floyds when Madison doesn't eat it all up. Right now in La Crosse I have seen Dreadnaught IPA and Gumblehead on tap and the Side Note has Dreadnaught and Moloko bombers.

    Alchemy has it on tap right now. Had it Tue and last night :slight_smile:. If you ever come across Pseudo Sue by Toppling Goliath, it's very similar. Alchemy also has that from time to time. Might be my top two beers...
