Special beers for Cumberland Brews' 10 year anniversary.

Lifted lock, stock and hop bill from the Louisville Restaurants Forum. I can't make it, but the idea of naming beers for staff is a great one.

Cumberland Brews celebrates its 10th birthday today, Aug. 8, from 1 p.m. until midnight, with a roster of special brews on draft named after, and in honor of, the brewpub's servers.

"It's hard to believe it's been 10 years," said Cumberland's Mark Allgeier, and I agree. Cumberland Brew has earned its place on the Louisville area's honorable roster of brewpubs and microbreweries.
