NABC at the Black Keys concert, Iroquois Amphitheater, on Wednesday, August 11.

More good beer (and music) news arrived yesterday afternoon, courtesy of River City Distributing, NABC's Louisville wholesaler.

The Black Keys will be playing Iroquois Amphitheater on Wednesday, August 11, and NABC draft will be available for the show. In fact (again, thanking River City), we'll be the "official" local craft beer sponsor for the event.

This is exciting.

The Black Keys, a duo comprising guitarist Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney, have a new album, Brothers (released May 18). They'll be gigging throughout the summer, including shows with Kings of Leon in the fall. Their music is heavily influenced by the blues, but it's still rock 'n' roll to me, and displays numerous influences ... much like NABC beer.

It's too early to say what will be on tap for the Black Keys. I'm just happy we'll be there, and the show will be the perfect send-off for NABC's annual journey to Madison, Wisconsin, for the Great Taste of the Midwest (August 14). Details to come ...
