    Simply fantastic little brewpub! The pirogies were excellent! Buttery, slightly seared, and filled with potato and cheese greatness. The wings were exceptional as well. Crispy and cooked perfectly. Home made ranch was delicious and wonderfully crafted. Now, if the food was excellent, I can't think of higher praise for the beer! We did 6-4oz pours and what a great way to taste several of their brews. All very good!

    Stopped by for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the super fresh and larger salads. We also had a pint of the helles and it was great! We will be back next time we're in town.

    Helles Lager

    Loved the selection of local beers, and the food was fresh and yummy! I tried their wings which had a zesty, peppery sauce and my husband had their burger which he said he'd get again!

    Outstanding imperial stout.

    Stopped in while biking from Chicago to the Indiana Dunes. Great location just off the bike path. Friendly service. I had the pierogis, which were good. Fresh sour cream and chives dip was quite good (needed more chives though). First beer was their Russian Imperial Stout, which was quite good. My biking buddy and I raved about this one. Toad IPA was nothing special at all. Would certainly stop in again next time I'm biking in the area.

    My Helles Lager served in a Tankard, or what the Germans would call "ein halbes Mass" (half liter)

    2 rounds of drinks and find out food order never put in. No apology or a complimentary beer. Not a happy customer. Probably not coming back

    I figured since 3 Floyd's Brewing is not really open to the public, per se. And the Dark Lord Day…read moreis its own entity I would specifically review it on its own merits. I must preface by saying I have wanted to do this event for a long, long time. But alas work has made it nearly impossible to do. Time becomes a commodity as you get older. It's do or die. The latter is inevitable. Not knowing how this festival works I studied Yelp reviews. I joined a DLD Facebook to find helpful tips. Both were extremely helpful. It is basically a musical festival, a giant bottle share and people dressed as warlocks all in one. There are three levels of admission: VIP Deluxe, GA and one with just for the concert. Depending on your budget each has it pros and cons. Me, my suggestion is to get the VIP Deluxe. It is crazy expensive and goes fast. However, I believe it is the best option. So I got the regular GA, which is $200 hundred bucks. You get 4 DLD variant stouts and admission to the concert. Maybe to the casual festival goer this will seem alot. Once you get here you will experience something unique. A week or two before the event happens they mail you wristbands. Do not put them on. There is a QR Code which you have to attach a credit card to. It is a cashless event. It's just like the Sail and Sign on a Cruise Ship in theory. As you buy drinks, merch or food you use the wristband to pay for them. A quick few pro-tips. Do not bring lawn chairs. Know that you are going to stand most of the time. Before I go on, let me rewind a bit. The parking situation is not dire but get there as early as you can. Local businesses offer parking for $20 bucks. We were able to find parking within walking distance to the festival. Here came the kicker for me, they had a guy doing a DLD tailgate party. It's like a normal tailgating party but with free to sample beers. He had things I have only heard of in tales of lore. My next pro-tip is to bring a small plastic sample glass. Once you arrive staff is there to put on your wristbands for you. And they check all ID'S. You are allowed to bring in some beer and an unopened bottle of water. Bring the water! I will say the logistics and mechanics of it run really smoothly. The staff are extremely super friendly and helpful. Having only seen 3 Floyd's in pictures it is more vast than I had imagined. Every nook and cranny was filled with something of interest. There were tap spaces everywhere. Vendors. Food trucks. In the center of it all was a Viking Court, with the largest bottle share I have ever seen. They had a thing called, "The Wheel of Death." For twenty-five bucks you spin a wheel similar to "Wheel of Fortune." You can win beer, merch or even your name etched onto a keg. I thought about doing it but the wait was already a couple of hours in. Most of your time here will be spent standing in line for something. For beer. Food. Restrooms. The merch lines were insane. Fortunately for you when this happen there are lots of people dying to share their brought in beer. I will say a great deal of the drinks I had were from beer sharers. For the most part festival goers were friendly. However, there is finite seating here. Which makes the VIP Deluxe option more enticing. After a while I wanted to sit somewhere. Since seating is sparce I saw groups monopolizing available benches. For example a bench that could fit ten people was instead filled with 3 harboring stuff. You would eye a bench and people would place a hat, a bag to prevent you from sitting with them. I get it. My biggest critique is that they need to let festival goers bring in folding chairs. For example I saw people in various stages of drunkenness: stumbling or even passed out. Letting people bring in folding chairs would allow them to cool down. It would also create a more laid back vibe. It certainly has the space to do so. Quickly before I write more volumes the musical entertainment is extreme metal. The dance floor is filled with moshers and headbangers. If you are expecting bossa nova jazz you will be disappointed. By and large I did enjoy this event. Will I recommend it to someone? Absolutely. Will I do it again? Probably not. It's a young person's world now. The Dark Lord Day is a very, very unique experience. And I believe we should fill our lives with them. Was that a dude dressed as a wizard at the festival or was it in fact Gandalf? After a few stouts you won't know the difference.

    I returned here with the son on 5-18-2024 for 2024's Dark Lord Day.  It was actually the first time…read moreI've made it here for the annual and coveted event as the only other time I came for Dark Lord was with him for an atypical Covid era pickup only event. The event is pretty pricey and it's definitely a beer geek special as it costs $200 for admission plus rights to a tote bag containing one 2024 Dark Lord and three Dark Lord variant bombers (each 22 oz).  This year was the 20th anniversary Dark Lord Day and they've been doing it for a long time and it's very organized, at least as far as making sure you're credentialed for admittance.  It will still cost $15 - $30 to park nearby, but they do have some shuttle buses to remote parking locations.  We got there at 9am for our pre-purchased Group A designated time slot but later in the day, there will be more people, with more lines for everything, including the few foodstands on site.  I can't imagine any lines for port-o-potties though as there were millions of those and that's a good thing.  Heavy metal bands were scheduled to play from 1:30pm to 8pm, but we didn't stay for any of that.  I just had a nice 4 oz serving of the 2024 Dark Lord (for $10) while we were there and then we left with the goods.  We stood briefly in a line next to a couple that flew in from San Jose CA just for the event.  One staffer also told me a guy came in from Italy supposedly just for this event.  I really did enjoy the people-watching of these quite serious beer geeks, and that was probably the real highlight of visiting in person on this special day.  My only advice if you're going to a Dark Lord Day for any length of time on a sunny day is to bring a hat, sun screen, and a designated driver!
