    Having had both of them fresh, I have to say that psuedoSue is quite a bit better than Dust.

    I have never had them side by side to compare, but that would not surprise me in the least bit.

    I would agree. Had them both draft this past week....Sue wins hands down. ZeeLander would win too.

    I would also agree and would throw TG Millennium Falcon into the mix as well. My personal preference is Millennium Falcon>ZeeLander>PseudoSue>Zombie Dust. Love having the Toppling Goliath stuff available on tap in Madison the past few months!

    6.50 for a 10oz pour....if FFF finds out about that they very well might not allow them to sell it anymore. It is very very very hard to get outside of the brewpub, Bottles are near impossible to find anywhere, again outside of FFF its self. If a store has it they tend to sell out ASAP. As for other restaurants there are a few in Chicago/and burbs that have it, even fewer that have it year round. Plain and simple its a very good beer thats hard to find out side of IND and the chicago land area, mainly because FFF wants it that way. sorry bud

    I was there yesterday. They had it on their upcoming taps list, and the bartender said the last keg lasted two or three days. She also said they have a connection at the brewery, so Dexter's may be the place to get it in Madison.

    It's hard to find bottles of ZD outside of Munster, period. Follow the Madison establishments listed above on social media and try it when ZD is tapped.

    I stopped by the Steve's on University Ave. in Madison to ask about it and they said the same thing that has been said in this thread. Gotta go to Chicago or the brewpub.

    Screw it. I'm leaving to go home to Michigan from Wisconsin this weekend and I'm going to stop by FFF to get a case. Anything else I should be thinking about grabbing while I'm there?

    P.S- anyone ever been on their brewery tour? Any good? Is it worth going out of my way to set my drive on a Saturday so I can get out there for one?

    I don't see that hop bill getting you anywhere close to zombie dust.

    It only lasted 5 or 6 days at Eddie's, though a few other boner beers are on the way.
