Sun King & Three Floyds - 3 Kings American Pale Ale Poster - Rare For Sale

Sun King & Three Floyds – “3 Kings” American Pale Ale Poster | Rare Collaboration Breweriana
This Sun King Brewing x Three Floyds “3 Kings” American Pale Ale poster is a rare and highly collectible piece of modern Midwestern breweriana, celebrating one of Indiana craft beer’s most iconic collaborations.
On the surface, 3 Kings was a bold American Pale Ale collaboration inspired by the breweries’ flagship beers—Three Floyds’ Alpha King and Sun King’s Osiris—blended into a single release that quickly gained cult status among craft beer fans.
But the true significance of 3 Kings goes far beyond the beer.
This collaboration was intentionally brewed during a pivotal moment in Indiana craft beer history, when state law capped “microbreweries” at 20,000 barrels per year, threatening the growth of successful independent breweries. Sun King and Three Floyds publicly used the 3 Kings release as part of their effort to draw attention to these restrictive limits and advocate for legislative change.
Their lobbying and public awareness efforts helped push Indiana lawmakers to raise the production cap to 30,000 barrels in 2011, marking an important step forward for craft breweries across the state. As a result, 3 Kings became both a beer and a symbol—representing collaboration, independence, and the fight for the future of craft brewing in Indiana.
This poster captures that moment in time, making it more than just wall art—it’s a piece of beer history.
Perfect for:
• Craft beer collectors and breweriana enthusiasts
• Fans of Sun King Brewing or Three Floyds
• Indiana / Midwest brewery memorabilia collections
• Home bars, offices, taprooms, or framed display spaces
A must-have piece for anyone who appreciates not just great beer, but the stories and movements that helped shape the modern craft brewing industry.
