3 Floyds Anniversary Party Tickets & Other Notes

Figured these were too short for their own posts, so here are some 3 Floyds notes, quickie style.

Anniversary Party Tickets Website
Announced today via their blog, 3 Floyds has released the website where you can purchase tickets to their 15th Anniversary Party starting 10/10/11, 1:00pm Central Time. That address?

You'll definitely want to be on the ball if you're interested in getting tickets to this event on 11/12/11. Full details can be found here.

RE: Ohio Distribution
3 Floyds has addressed some of the skepticism and rumors running rampant around parts of the Internet regarding many different facets of their brewery in a page titled "FAQ and Rumors" on their website, which I previously hadn't noticed until today. In a topic we touched on last week, and has been speculated about elsewhere, they have this to say about their expanding distribution to Ohio:

1. We’re expanding distribution to Ohio.
This is true. However, Ohio will only receive limited release, specialty beers (Seasonal releases and one-offs). Ohio will not drain Chicago and Indiana’s Gumballhead or Alpha King supply. Adding Ohio will allow us to increase production on limited release beers which benefits all markets.

Seems like enough said. For now...

Zombie Dust Bottles
The brewpub is out again. :(

Not soon enough for some, I fear.

3 Floyds 15th Anniversary Party

Two of my favorite things are coming together on November 12th; 3 Floyds and Party. More specifically, FFF is throwing a 15th Anniversary Party at the Brewery, and they are releasing a special beer for this purpose!

According to their Blog Post, the XV brew will be a blend of Surley Darkness, Mikkeller's Beer Geek Brunch, De Struise's Black Albert and FFF Dark Lord for "maximum ass kickery," as they describe.

A few quick talking points...

- Takes place on 11/12/11
- Tickets are $25ea, only 2500 tix will be sold
- 700 of the 2500 tix will be sold at the brewery, the rest online. Date to be announced
- XV will be bottled and sold for $30ea, bottle limit will be determined at packaging
- All of the 4 breweries represented in XV will also have beer available at the event
- Live entertainment and plenty of food will be available

I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it to the anniversary party, however if anyone is feeling generous enough to bring me back a bottle, you will be my best friend for the day.

Cheers, and congratulations to 3 Floyds on 15 years!
