CONGRATS to the folks at Black Acre Brewing who tied for 4th place with Shallo's for Best Beer Selection in the Indy A-List of the IndyStar. This is a great accomplishment considering that Shallo's has been open since the 80s and Black Acre is one of our newest Brew Pubs.
The two neat things about Black Acre are 1) the fabulous tap Room (I mean even if they had 4 on tap instead 17 the beautiful tap room is worth a visit)and 2) their SEVENTEEN taps serve up not only their own fresh-brewed local beer but super guest beers as well. Did you know they have their own Berliner Weisse on tap and a Green Tea Pale? beer list 5632 E Washington St., closed Tuesdays and Sunday evenings
Okay, where can we get good Belgian Beer in the Bottle in a bar? 1) Black Acre has 12 Belgian or Dutch (LaTrappe) beers, 2) we stopped by Shallo's last week (one of our old standbys) and noted TWENTY FOUR Belgian beers, and 3) we managed to get to BJ's in Greenwood to sample one of their TWENTY Belgian beers.
Near Louisville? Buckhead Grill, Jeffersonville, IN, is flirting with their Kentucky neighbors duing Louisville Beer Week. IN vs. KY On Sept. 26, while the Bluegrass Brewing TapRoom is having a "Meet the Brewer's event" (the TapRoom serves no food) the Buckhead Grill will have among their 40 taps beers available in Indiana but not Kentucky! Perhaps hungry Louisville brewers will take the challenge and wander across the bridge to sample some Indiana brew and grab a bite to eat!
Our Fort Wayne reporter, Cindy has done a great job of profiling local events Click here to view
George Washington brewed and distilled at Mt. Vernon, Thomas Jefferson brewed in his day, yet the White House has brewed the first beer to be brewed in the White House and has released the recipe... Click here to see the two beers brewed
Confessions of a blogger.... interesting correcting typos... at one point this blog has "teppeed" instead of "tapped" and "Beet festival" instead of "beer festival" - I'd much rather attend the BEER festival.
Cheers! Greg Kitz
