Top 11 Reasons for Attending “Beers Across the Wabash”

11.  Great beers from Indiana breweries (see above)

10.  Fantastic view from the pedestrian bridge across the Wabash

 9.  The possibility exists of a bald eagle sighting or two.  Beer and bald eagles, not a bad Saturday in my opinion

 8.  You can someday tell your great-grandchildren that you were at the very 1^st Beers Across the Wabash

 7.  Because the possibility of a 2^nd annual Beers Across the Wabash may very well depend on YOU!

 6.  Lots of great establishments for delicious craft beer within walking distance after the event.

 5.  You can visit the newly expanded taproom @ People’s Brewing

 4.  You’re within walking distance of enjoying a Drought Buster IPA or Battleground IIPA @ Lafayette Brewing Co.

 3.  Make it a weekend and enjoy the Uptown Jazz & Blues Fest downtown from 5pm to midnight

 2.  You have an open invitation to, when encountering yours truly, tell me to my face how lousy of a blogger I am while I nod and hang my head in shame
