| Festivals: A busload of Gravity Head |
|
 The Hoosier Beer Geeks are chartering a bus and coming to visit both NABC locations on March 6. I looked at the calendar this morning and realized that with 18 days to go until Gravity Head begins, it's time to get my lazy butt in gear and begin generating information -- but, as Augustine said, not just yet. Mike and I will work on the starting lineup this week, and I'll commence the compilation of the programs. This morning, there are other pressing matters awaiting my acumen, such as tonight's Office Hours.
One question was asked: Would there be flights of smaller pours when the HBG bus is parked outside? Customarily, no, but let me see what I can do. Perhaps a buffet of sorts ...

| Festivals: Gravity Head 2010 |
|
The list hits 60 - and stops there.
Uncle.
This is as close as I can get to a final Gravity Head listing. It may well be the most diverse ever from top to bottom. The style categories are from Beer Advocate. There are 60 beers, even though I was supposed to buy less this year. Oops. One of these years, I'll learn. You'll notice that there have been changes since the last update.
We'll begin on February 26 with the third annual Gravity Head Tailgate Breakfast at 7:00 in the Public House. The starting lineup will be announced fairly soon, and there'll be fan voting for one slot.

| Festivals: Gravity Head 2010, A Preview |
|
Beginning Friday, February 26.
Here’s a glimpse of our progress in procurements for Gravity Head 2010, which begins on Friday, February 25, and which will be the 12th edition of the spectacle.
Work is underway on this year’s theme and graphics. All I can tell you is that Sir Isaac Newton is involved, along with an existential exploration of gravity and its consequences.
Continuing last year’s organizational conceit of grouping Gravity Head listed selections according to style, I’ve elected to begin with verbatim style categories from Beer Advocate. This doesn’t mean that I personally agree with each and every one of Beer Advocates decisions with respect to style and placement of individual beers in categories. In fact, some are downright strange to me (Red & White as Witbier?), so please tell me what you think, and whether you agree or disagree with Beer Advocate’s style designations and decisions.
To be honest, I’m doing it this way because it’s easier for me to get the ball rolling without making editorial decisions from the outset. The majority of these kegs already are in stock, with a handful of them ordered and not yet delivered. There might yet be a few additions, so view these as provisional. Finally, I'll add NABC's contingent later. Count on vintage Thunderfoot. Beyond that, we'll see.

| Festivals: New Albany besieged by NABC Beers ... |
|
NABCieged begins this Friday, January 8, at the Public House & Pizzeria.
In early December, the NABC brain trust (huh?) hatched a scheme variously intended to celebrate the arrival of a new year, deplete inventory prior to Gravity Head and tout the fact that our own house-brewed beers are taking an ever larger share of the beer sales at the original NABC Pizzeria & Pub even as they invade surrounding territories in Indiana and Kentucky.
Consequently, this one's about us -- our NABC beers being brewed in two New Albany locations, not the great ones from all over the planet that we continue to vend and enjoy, but the ones that we feel are the future of the business (and aesthetic) enterprise.
 It's called N.A.B.cieged, and we ask the English majors among you to forgive the spelling. It's not a Black Eyed Peas contributor. The idea is to have as many as possible of our own NABC beers on tap at one time at the Pizzeria & Pub. The event will last as long as the kegs do, and then the remaining kegs from Saturnalia will be put on tap alongside the customary guest regulars and what has become a permanently expanded NABC repertoire.
Obviously, we're undertaking this at the Pizzeria & Public House because there are far fewer available taps at the Bank Street Brewhouse, where a dozen or so NABC beers are on tap all of the time, with no guests.
Here's more from David Pierce on the forthcoming spectacle. There'll be more comments from me as the week progresses, so stay tuned. And, given the amount of work required to swap all these kegs of beer around, say a silent prayer for Jared, Mike Bauman, Ben Minton and Eric Gray, who'll likely be doing the heavy lifting, literally.

Watch for this celebration of the work of our own brewers - Jesse Williams, Jared Williamson and David Pierce, Director of Brewing Operations - to begin on January 8th. Our goal is an NABC beer on every tap at the NABC Public House & Pizzeria.
