Since when is February the kickoff for event season?
We have road engagements each of the first four weekends of the month, culminating with a return on February 28 to the friendly confines of the Pizzeria & Public House for the celebration known as Gravity Head. See them all below.
Meanwhile, there is both new and old on the agenda for January.
Old Lightning Rod Day comes around for the ninth time on the 19th at Bank Street Brewhouse, where we'll also be staging an inaugural birthday for Hoptimus on the 31st.
But before that, January 14 will be a Tuesday to remember at both locations, as we debut a very special one-time ale at 5:00 p.m. My lips are sealed. This time, you'll just have to show up and see what we're talking about.

First-ever release of (censored) Ale
Join us at both NABC locations on Tuesday, January
14, when we’ll be releasing a limited edition ale so very unique and ridiculously
special that we can’t even tell you about it yet. Just be at the Pizzeria & Public House or Bank Street
Brewhouse at 5:00 p.m. on the 14th, and taste for yourself.
JANUARY 19 & 20
Old Lightning Rod Day 2014

It’s the annual limited

the legendary Benjamin Franklin’s birthday. On Monday, January 20, Old
Lightning goes on tap at the Pizzeria & Public House. As always, it’s a
small batch, so get your pints and growlers while you can.

Hoptimus is NABC’s biggest-selling
beer in the metro Louisville market, and to celebrate its 8th birthday,
we’re showcasing the everyday recipe with added shadings, courtesy of the boys
in the brewhouse: Oaktimus (oak-aged), Chouffetimus (Belgian yeast) and two
pins of differently dry-hopped Hoptimus (with Citra and Styrian Celeia).
