Dark Lord Day is April 30th this year. A big change for the tailgaters this year (from their faq):
“The biggest change for this year is that a ticket will be required to attend the event. This ticket will also guarantee bottle allocation. Regrettably, changes have to be made to ensure the longevity of the event, safety and shorter lines. Without the ticket, there will be no admission to the premises.”
Will the tailgating move across the street? Will the tailgaters who in past years have set up down the block be cleared out? Hundreds or it could be over a thousand folks show up without magic tickets; just for the party. We hope 99.99% of these folks can still be accomodated.
The BoomBozz web site says “BoomBozz Taphouse Coming Soon to Indianapolis!”. They’re a 4-unit pizza chain growing in Louisville that is getting good reports (despite having not one silly Z but two). This picture is of the board of the one at Bardstown Rd at Eastern Parkway (stolen from Roger Baylors’s Potable Curmudgeon) shoutout.
Cavalier has new JW Lee’s Harvest Ale and we’ll be seeing it and more of some old vintages in stores soon.

Jon Templet will tap a Dry Irish Stout on March 10th in celebration of either that or an Irish saint.
We’re obligated by unspoken contract to talk about, or at least link to anyone else’s blog article about an article about another article. Especially friend-of-the-show John Holl’s. But we’re not giving it an entire article. Sorry John.
Oh, and John, we haven’t gotten a review copy of your new Indiana Breweries book. See you at your first Book Signing. New Albanian's Public House. April 2, 3-6pm. Or the next afternoon at the Bank Street Brewhouse.
Get your copy as a thank-you gift during the upcoming WTIU fund drive. Or at Amazon’s pre-order page. Or, well, it should be everywhere in a couple of weeks.
