The Sci-Fi Heavy Metal Beer: Craftwerk 3 Floyds
Ойын-сауық
Approximately 30 miles southeast of the Chicago Loop in the small town of Munster, Indiana, lies 3 Floyds, one of the most well-respected breweries in the world. At the helm is owner Nick Floyd, who has helped craft the brewery's completely unique image... and its beers. Before 3 Floyds came along, craft beer brand image was usually synonymous with trees, fairies, and the like, but 3 Floyds injected some darkness and heavy metal into the scene. With head brewer Chris Boggess now helping Nick run the show, the brewery has expanded to include a distillery and even a hops field. Enjoy this inside look at one of the most revered breweries in the game.

+Lance Beckman You think so? I think it was pretty arrogant and ignorant regarding people with severe gluten intolerance issues. Not that it matters, because this is just another crazy US brewer who is overcompensating for the light beer "culture", making for awful beers on the other side of the extreme spectrum.

+Diggnuts than those people with severe gluten allergies can go buy their gluten free beers elsewhere. It's his business, he will make what he wants and what will ultimately sell. It's a little arrogant but when you are making "awesome" beer, why wouldn't you?

+Diggnuts After trying pretty much over a thousand different craft beers over the last 5-6 years I have figured out one thing, after a while, it gets old, especially when they are so expensive, and really make people pack on the pounds with the amount of sugar in those beers. It's funny, many "craft ales" are pure shit, meanwhile people will call commercial beer "crappy beer" simply because they owned by big corporations, which is sad because literally everyone, especially hipsters, consume and spend like crazy, so they think buying craft beer is changing the world?! WTF!?!?!? Fake ass hippies these beer snobs. On a hot ass day, the last thing I want is some dark and bitter beer that has the same amount of calories as a chocolate bar. I'll drink a 40 of Olde English 800 along with a Lagunitas Hop Stupid, beer snobs must DIE!
I've never wanted to play Dungeons & Dragons before in my life. Now doing that while drinking Zombie Dust is all I can think about.

Best series ever!
These dudes are the best, I once picked up a 6 pack of gumball head that went bad somehow, and they over nighted a 6 pack of fresh gumball head the very next day when i wrote a email to them. Awesome customer service and great selection of beers. Their Chicagos best brewery and theyre not even located in the same state let alone city.
Hell yeah. These guys make such good brews. Nice to see fellow Indiana folks on Munchies! Lucky I always have access to their beer. :D Have yet to check out their brewpub, though!
Didn't realize how spoiled I am living where I do , Bloomington in the house !
Please, please do more of these brewery documentaries!!! Love it
Can't have enough metal heads making beer. I approve of this type of activity. The distillery by these guys will be amazing. I haven't tried a sour beer yet. Haven't ran across any at my neighborhood narcoleptic geriatric bar.
I love their beer!
these guys know how to Fucking live
Munchies + craft Beer: AWESOME!!
Im loving these craft werk videos!
Bring this series back please and thank you.
Awesome episode. Awesome AF
I will NEVER grow tired of drinking 3 Floyds beer! Best fucking brewery in the world!
Honestly the most memorable time I’ve ever had at a brewery. I remember the bartenders were laid back and not cocky which is always a huge plus. They were playing records that seemed to fit their mood and how busy it was on that rainy humid day. When I entered at open they were playing Didjits Hey Judester and then switched to the Fela Kuti Zombie EP.
3 Floyd's is the shit. If only it was accessible in Seattle. Craving a Zombie Dust right now...
Love going to the brewery in Indiana such fine beer
Having no competition give these guys a humble cool attitude, no bullshit front needed
awesome episode
i really enjoyed this!
I love these guys!
Now if only it wasn't so hard to get your hands on zombie dust lol
damn it I need a 3 floyds beer now HAHA
These guys kick ass, im gonna pick up some of their stuff asap! cool vid
Fuck yeah. I'm from Toronto, Ontario and was just in Chicago for a few days; saw some 3 Floyds bottles for the first time and was blown away. So creative and awesome. Didn't get to try any, unfortunately because the place I was shopping was kind of shitty and most of the bottles were out of date, so I didn't want to get a poor first impression. Can't wait to go back and try some soon, though! I really admire these folks.
Cool video!
so awesome to see a successful business from my part of the county! Sadly,I don't like beer but I'm excited about the whiskey!
I would like to see 3 Floyds expand their business & distribute beers to the east coast because I've heard great things about their beers
i love these guys! go on
AGHGHGH SO AWESOME!
Great stuff wish they would open back up their brew pub
These guys rock, Love the pear bear!!!
This looks super fucking cool. I want your beer!
The owner was hammered the entire time during the filming!
Kick ass. If I lived in Indiana I'd sneak into that brewery, get noticed, and work hard to climb the ladder to eventually be a trusted lieutenant in that organization.
so badass, I must try there beers \m/
From downtown indy. No idea what 3 floyds was before this. I'm always down to try and support local breweries. I gonna give all of these a try!!!
haha "we don't do any nascar shit like that" - i don't know why i found that so funny
Do one on The Alchemist Brewery or Dogfish Head please!
Three Floyds makes some awesome beer.
I need to take a road trip to munster Indiana now lol
I absolutely love the sound of your Russian imperial stout. Nice dudes! Would love to put it on my tasting show wish I could get it over here on the west coast
This brand may be the only thing keeping me in Indy at this point. Every beer I've tried from them has been excellent.
Are you fucking serious.... D&D with Nick Floyd and an unlimited supply of 3 Floyds??? Fuck I wanna be a part of that crew.
I wanna take a week's vacation and just stay at the 3 Floyds Brew Pub!!!
Living the Dream !
Nick is like the lovechild of Phil Anselmo and David Chang.
I want to go here!!
"yea i make beer all day and play D&D with my 14 friends" the dream
crazy man
Craft beer scene in the US is fuckin great.
Their "Oasis for ridiculousness" starts with their skyrocketed beer prices.
Can you guys go to stone brewery in Escondido? I love that place
I moved from Chicago to NJ..Where can I find Zombie Dust? I miss that beer.

+Jeremy U lol fools. does that coors light say that it belongs to someone that works for/with them? I can't see it on the can. could've been someone from the munchies crew. I don't even drink beer but a quick google search of their big names that they mentioned here shows that they have been getting great reviews for years, so they obviously do something right. Vice/muchies viewers are such contentious pricks.

+ii Smack it went over your head, coors light shouldn't be allowed in the building. They claim to love craft beer and make amazing craft beer. While coors light is considered shitty cheap beer by anyone, it's common knowledge. If it's a coors that part of the staff was drinking or one of their friends then that does mean they allow low quality beer in a high quality brewery and somebody there preferred coors to their beer which is hilarious. They would've moved that beer out of shot if they realized. I think they like coors and whiskey and getting wasted more than their personal line.

I'm sure if they had noticed it they would have preferred the colors can to not be in the shot at all. it was definitely an overlook.

+mario juana It took 2 replies for you to actually make your point. Amazing. It's like pulling teeth. Too bad that wasn't what I was even replying to necessarily. The other guy is calling hypocrisy and claiming they all drink coors. That's what I was replying to more so than you. Put down that mario juana and work on your ability to perceive context clues. "Coors light shouldn't be allowed in the building" That was obviously a home not a fucking brewery. So back to MY point. Anyone can drink what they want. While your point about them most likely not wanting it in the shot is true, you're still a prick for claiming that it shouldn't be "allowed" in the building and saying they lose credibility for even having it there. I doubt a craft brewer is drinking it and so should you. But you're a prick and assume they're putting up some sort of facade??? How contrived.
I need to work here... I REALLY need to work here!
I'm amazed the keep the sour beer stuff in the main brewery room, sours are notorious for contamination problems.
So, basically , I'd have to drive across Texas into Tennessee to get some Zombie Dust? That just doesn't seem fair.
I wish I could get this in Scotland. Dam.
Three Floyds - Hire me I so wanna work there.
these guys are my new favourite super heroes
Hell yeah! I guess Indiana got one good thing going for itself. These beers deffinately are unique
I would move to Indiana just to work here, please hire me.
3 Floyds Yum Yum is so good.
So finally getting Huang's world, Fuck that's Delicious and Keep it Canada new episodes but on Vice new TV channel

Welp now I'm thirsty. Thank God its Friday.
Need to try these...just starting to get into drinking. Where can I try?
best brewing in America imo
Best fucking beer. Hands down!!!!!
The worst thing about not drinking alcohol is missing out on all these great beers. DAMMIT!
Darklord is not at all overrated. It's more an experience than a beer.
I think I wanna work for these guys.
cool
We have no marketing... he said in a feature by Vice.
where can i get this beer in vancouver bc?
i like his sweater can somebody tell me the brand =?
zombie snot! next craft! it should be a stout and kriek mix..
Ah shit , I love it.....\m/
dammit I will love to work there...
somebody knows the name of the intro song?
There needs to be a Dark Lord D&D character
Yep metal and beer = cool shit!
hello , what is the song at 0:28 please
Where Can i get myself a badass 3 floyd's shirt?
At 1:30 he just names some of the UK's most average beers.
Interesting video. However 3 Floyd’s have not adapted. With all the great local selections in Chicago, it’s just not what it used to be. Cases of Zombie Dust untouched last time I was at the liquor store.

Yup. They kind of got stuck doing the whole “we are so cool. You need us not the other way around” thing. Then a shit ton of other amazing breweries launched in practically every neighborhood of every state. And they got forgotten. Same goes for Russian River out here in California. Pliny the elder used to be pretty rare. Its a everywhere now and just sits on shelves.
Do one on Karl Strauss. Best microbrew in San Diego, the fucking CAPITOL OF MICROBREW IN AMERICA.
