Lots of fall beer events going on this weekend. Check out the calendar for more information about German American Klub Oktoberfest, Hoosier Hops and Harvest Festival, and Mad Anthony's Octobeerfest among others.
Also, tickets are going very fast for our Beer and Cheese tasting at Goose the Market. Less than 10 tickets remain for this event. We are super excited to work with Goose and to have an event to benefit very cool people.
Our friends at Big Car Gallery in Fountain Square are competing to win a grant from the Pepsi Refresh program. When they win, they will be able to utilize a new space in the Murphy Art Building for live shows, art galleries, and other cool stuff including beer events. We would love to see them win and all it takes is a vote from you. Visit http://www.refresheverything.com/bigcar and vote!
If there is something coming up that is not listed, we would love to hear about it. News, reviews, info, etc., to share for our next Random Beer Roundup can be submitted to hoosierbeergeek@gmail.com. Don't see your favorite craft beer establishment? Let them know you'd like to see them here! Work for an establishment that serves craft beer? We want to hear from you too!
