    Sadly, they can barely keep up with their own area and the few states they distribute to already without adding more places.

    As far as I've heard distribution won't increase much. The expansion is more so intended to produce enough product to keep up with the markets they already have.

    Isn't there a cap in Indiana on breweries with taprooms at 25,000 or 30,000 barrels? That is the real issue I would imagine; they don't want to lose that taproom.

    Yeah, they're state capped at 30k bbl. I know they had been working to get approval on any out of state sales not applying to their state limit but I have not heard on any updates on that for a while now.

    Not that I care, I think it's a lot of fun to only be able to get it at the brewery, more or less. It's an adventure.

    Not greed. Simply supply and demand.

    $60 hoodies is just plain greed, you're charging that much for somethng that costs about $12 and amounts to free advertising?

    No other beer in my store(s) sells out quicker then 3 Floyds. No other beer is consistently requested by customers than 3 Floyds. Not trying to defend them, but their price is based on the demand. There (currently) is much more demand for them than what they can produce. Supply < Demand in this case.
