Ride to Three Floyds and boost your cognitive function. Just for fun or also to qualify for the F-12 Award if you can't make the Fifth Step Ride.

Comment by bobweiser on May 22, 2016 at 4:42am: alas. it turned out i was using my pump wrong! flipping the lever the wrong way, so the air wasn't going in the tube. put the old tube back in, didn't get to the clock tower until 8:30. flew down, slogged back. set a record @ fff, got in early, was out by noon. where did you guys go? did you have a nice ride?

new since last time:

Icelandic Pants of the Dead
6% ABV 33 IBU $6 Perception

Icelandic Pants of the Dead aka "Nabrok" aka "Death Underpants" aka "Necropants" is an American sour ale borne of an unholy blend of a foeder beer and an all Brettanoymces IPA. Tart sour notes collide with fresh and fruity hoppy flavor and aroma married together with a classic wild yeast backbone.
Evil Elf
8% ABV 49 IBU $5 Tulip

Our ode to Orval. Originally borne in the late 90s out of an old grundy tank and poured out of yee olde tap room. This modern version was brewed with a hand selected Belgian ale yeast and conditioned with Brettanomyces to achieve that distinct pineapple cherry pie yeast character.

guest drafts:

BURN EM Grain Funyuns
7.7% ABV $5 Half Pint

Juicy, Dank IPA brewed with Pineapple
18th Street Rise of the Angels
7.7% ABV $5 snifter

Helping to resurrect your palette from the doldrums, Rise of the Angels bursts onto your tongue with a blast of grapefruit zest that is quickly followed by a parade of floral, citrus hops.
