The simple pleasures of beering locally. I'm older now, and simple beer pleasures are the most meaningful to me. They tend to be encountered locally. It is my aim to get unplugged and explore some of them, slowly and thoughtfully. I'd tell you where it's leading, except that I've no idea ... and that's the whole point of the journey: To find out.

Donum Dei's grand opening is on St. Patrick's Day -- Tuesday, March 17.
What a difference a year makes. Above is a photo I took on March 4, 2014. Below is Donum Dei Brewery as it appears now, with opening slated for St. Patrick's Day.
As best I can determine, counting NABC's two brewing sites as one owing to shared ownership, the last time there were two working breweries in Floyd County was 1918, when the advent of Indiana state prohibition closed both Paul Reising and the State Street Brewery (Nirmaier's) to close.
Inside Indiana Business has more information. Plan to come out next week, check in, and see what Donum Dei has to offer. Opening hours are not posted at the Facebook site, but the grand opening ribbon cutting will be held at 4:00 p.m. on the 17th.
Congratulations to Rick Otey and crew.
