Things to do Tuesday:

- Steve Berthel (brewmaster at The Livery) and Jared Williamson (brewer of record at NABC) are doing a Belgian IPA in New Albany on Tuesday. article They will also be tapping Wet Knob Hop Harvest Ale at New Albanian.
"We are proud to announce that Great Crescent Brewery is now available for sale at Keg Liquors. Based in Aurora, Indiana, the Great Crescent Brewery uses all malt and fresh hops in all of the beers they create. Every beer is hand-crafted in small batches using traditional brewing methods.
Owner and brewer Dan Valas stopped in on Friday with a deliver of four of the freshly brewed offerings in growlers. The growlers are counter-pressure filled, so you are guaranteed the same freshness in the growler as you would from a bottle."
A 2.8% ABV Guinness "Mid-Strength" has been tested in Ireland and "consumers responded positively". Now they are trying it out in Scotland where consumers may respond a bit differently. We'll know in 3 months. article
"Beer Institute released figures yesterday indicating that imported beer shipments were down another 8.1% in July, bringing year-to-date import shipments down 9.3%, or a loss of about 160,000 case equivs a day." And Lew Bryson thinks he knows why – to make room for American craft beer.
Bud Light Golden Wheat will launch on October 5th. "Bud Light Golden Wheat is a premium light, unfiltered wheat beer brewed with wheat malt, coriander and citrus peels. A medium-bodied brew, Bud Light Golden Wheat is slightly sweet on first sip giving way to a refreshingly tart, citrus finish. Bud Light Golden Wheat has all the personality of Bud Light and appeals to light beer drinkers who seek a little more flavor from their beer." It will come in 12oz and 22oz bottles and probably say Bud Light Golden Wheat on the label. There, that may satisfy the Bud Light Golden Wheat mentions for a while.
