Beer Whisperer drinks, reviews NABC Black & Blue Grass.

MilkWood, opening at Actor's Theater in February.

MilkWood, described as a "modern speakeasy with cuisine that will explore Southern Bar Food with an Asian Pantry," is Chef Edward Lee's new project at Actor's Theater, located in the epicenter of downtown Louisville.

(On an unrelated note, there is still a chance for you to go to Actor's for performances of "The Whipping Man," which Mr. and Mrs. Curmudgeon viewed in 2012 at the Ensemble Theater in Cincinnati)

Chef Lee's new venture will have four regional craft  brews on tap, and at least at the outset, one of them will be NABC's Black & Blue Grass. When we conducted a tasting with Chef Lee and staff, he commented that Black & Blue Grass would play well with the "Asian Pantry" concept, and I couldn't agree more.

I'm hoping that Black & Blue Grass stays on tap at Milk Wood for a good, long run. For more, visit Milkwood at Eater Louisville.

Take the Keg's word for it.

Description and specs are here.

Last evening's Harvest/NABC beer dinner was a pure treat.

Harvest Restaurant and NABC: A collaborative beer dinner on Tuesday, April 17.

Last evening's beer dinner was very, very good. I'm not just saying this because it was NABC. We got the beer pairings right, the food was magnificent, there were 40+ in attendance, and the kitchen and serving staffs rocked the house. It truly is wonderful when a plan comes together. Thanks again to everyone at Harvest for a transcendent evening.

Also, note this: Owing to the beer dinner's circumstance, Harvest is presently the only place in the world (including our own two establishments) to have NABC Black & Blue Grass on tap. Bottles and draft will be out soon, elsewhere, but for now, only Harvest has it. Black & Blue Grass is a food-friendly Saison with black pepper and lemongrass spicing, and blue agave sugar. For a preview, head over to Harvest.
