Oct. 19: Kentucky Kicks Ass BrewFest to benefit Kentuckians for the Commonwealth.

I find it highly annoying that NABC cannot participate in this event. It's isn't because we lack the desire, but the fact is that currently, we have no wholesale distribution in greater Kentucky. Consequently, our official presence is precluded -- at least this year. Maybe in 2014.

NABC always has a great time with Kentuckians for the Commonwealth and its Louisville Loves Mountains festival each May. I thinking seriously about road-tripping to Lexington for this one.

Make sure to “Kick Ass” responsibly...if not, we have the right to deny Ky Craft beer to anyone being an idiot and tarnishing Ky’s great name, regardless of how many drink tickets you have left!
