In 2011, an article in the Washington Post said that Three Floyds "has won over the beer geek elite," and "has been making the best beers on the planet for four of the past five years — at least according to the more than 1 million beer reviews logged each year on RateBeer.com. (In 2008, it slipped to second place.)"

Beers
Three Floyds produces eight year-round beers and a number of seasonal beers. At different times in the past, the brewery has produced dozens of other beers.
Dark Lord
Dark Lord is perhaps the most sought-after beer brewed by Three Floyds. It is a Russian imperial stout with a very high alcohol content, brewed with Dark Matter coffee, vanilla and sugar or molasses. It is sold at the brewery only on "Dark Lord Day", the last Saturday in April. Attendance at this event is now limited to 6,000 via pre-sold tickets, after crowd control problems in the past. As of November 2015, Dark Lord was ranked the #15 best beer in the world on RateBeer and was ranked #166 on BeerAdvocate.
