Imagine two brewers having this conversation:
"You've got your Three Floyds in my Dogfish Head!" exclaims one brewer. "You've got your Dogfish Head in my Three Floyds!" replies the other. Three Floyds and Dogfish Head; two beers that go great together! The result of this mad combination: Popskull!
All jokes aside, these two breweries are collaborating to concoct this experimentally extreme beer. Described as an "old school, german brown ale with Palo Santo wood and botanicals," only 60 barrels of Popskull will be produced for a very limited release for the Chicago area. The market due date of this brain-buster beer will likely around late April.
Two seperate events are happening this week to commerate Popskull:
"Dogfloydapalooza," the kick-off event, will happen this Wednesday (1/21) at 9:00pm at the Bottom Lounge (1375 W. Lake St.). The head-hanchos from both breweries will be on hand to meet fans and pour beers from their respective brands. Entry is $10 and it gets you a free pint. Also, there'll be great live music from locals the Waco Brothers, the Endless Wastes, and Big Science.
The next day (1/22), a beer dinner will take place after the actual brewing of Popskull at Three Floyd's Brewery (9750 Indiana Parkway, Munster, IN). Doors open at 7:00pm and it's $80 for admission.
