These Include:
2010 FOSSILS/LAGER Picnic
"Summer Picnic
The committee for the Summer Picnic met
early February to decide on the site and time
for the Summer Picnic. This year the picnic
will be held May 28th-30th at Flat Rock
Estates in Henryville, IN. Due to the upcoming
AHA conference, Memorial Day weekend was
the only time that was available. The fish fry
is returning this year for the picnic. We are
working with the Flat Rock folks to have
additional restroom facilities. The next picnic
meeting will be Wednesday March 24th at the
BBC Tap Room at 7:00PM. We will need
volunteers for Treasurer, clean up, raffle
tickets, tent set-up and etc."

Greetings fellow brewers,
On behalf of the Bluegrass Brewing Co. in Louisville KY, at the brewing corner of Clay and Main. I would
like to invite anyone who wishes to brew a batch in the brewery to come down on Sat April 24th. The
Louisville Ale Club began this event several years ago to pay homage to brewers. The Louisville Ale Club
brings lots of food to snack on while the brewing takes place. The brewery will provide 2400 gallons of 185
degree water for brewing, cold water for chilling, fresh yeast, lots of space, beer for purchase, bags of base
malt may be purchased at cost, and several hop varieties will be available for purchase as well. There is also a
homebrew shop right around the corner for other needs (My Old KY Homebrew). All you need to bring is
your equipment and a great love of beer. Please give yourselves plenty of time to get here, the Mini-Marathon
is run the same day and several streets are blocked off near the brewery.
I hope to see every homebrew club in the region represented.
Thanks,
Joel Halbleib
Director of Brewing Operations
Bluegrass Brewing Co

Upland Brewing Co. presents
Infinite Wisdom Weekend



To celebrate the release of our specialty Belgian-style ale, Infinite Wisdom Tripel, Upland is bringing
world renowned artist Norton Wisdom and Chicago's premier progressive bluegrass band, Cornmeal, to
Bloomington


Norton Wisdom is a good friend of the brewery, and his work is featured on the label of our Infinite
Wisdom Tripel (as well as our Dantalion Dark Wild Ale and Double Dragonfly Imperial IPA). Wisdom
does all his painting to music, and once a piece is completed, the canvas is wiped clean, leaving only a
high res digital photo as testimony to his masterpieces!
On Friday March 26th, beginning at 7pm, Upland will host an exhibition of Wisdom's work in our
Bloomington banquet hall. Wisdom himself will be there to discuss his works and meet his fans, and prints
of his work will be available for purchase.
The excitement of Wisdom's work is not only in the final product, but in the process, which you'll be able
to see first-hand the following night, Saturday, March 27. Wisdom will be painting original art to the
sounds of Zion Crossroads and Cornmeal at Jake's Nightclub in Bloomington, beginning at 7pm.
This is also the official kickoff for our Infinite Wisdom Tripel (which you can probably tell was named
in honor of the artist). Infinite Wisdom Tripel is a strong Belgian-style ale that has a long fermentation
period using classic Belgian yeasts. The nose contains banana and citrus notes while a complex fruitiness
and light warming sensation are experienced upon tasting. Like many Belgian Tripels, Infinite Wisdom is
strong but delectably drinkable.
Tickets to the show are $10 in advance, and $12 day of. Tickets are available online at uplandbeer.com or
at Upland's Bloomington Tap Room, Indy Tasting Room, or Jake's Nightclub.
