LIVE TO EAT: Eh Cumpari pizza lives again at Floyd County Brewing’s Grain Haus.

Damn, I was really hoping for Ethiopian.

Just joking.

While we definitely still need wat and injera downtown, these will have to wait, because it's good to see John Sarnecki and FCBC come together to offer his fine pizza at the Grain Haus.

When we closed the kitchen at Bank Street Brewhousein 2014, John did a few catering gigs with his mobile wood-fired pizza oven. He's always had a good product, so congratulations all around.

Floyd County Brewing’s Grain Haus rolls out new pizza menu, by Kevin Gibson (Insider Louisville)

Floyd County Brewing Company’s on-site outpost, the Grain Haus, will fire up its new wood-fired pizza oven for the public starting today.

After adding a 175-square-foot kitchen back in the fall, brewery owner Brian Hampton commissioned a red-tiled, wood-fired pizza oven by Marra Forni of Beltsville, Md. The restaurant hired Chef John Sarnecki, former owner and operator of pizza food truck Eh Cumpari, to run the kitchen.

The new addition will serve the Grain Haus, which sits in the beer garden just below the brewery and main restaurant; it first opened back in the spring. The pizza will not be available in the main restaurant nor is the main brewery’s menu available at the Grain Haus ...

LIVE TO EAT: Lunch hours at the Redmen Club and new hours at Taco Steve, where Eh Cumpari Pizza popping in on weekends.

The Redmen Club (211 E. Main, next door to Gospel Bird) now is open for lunch Monday through Friday from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The link to the Redmen at Fb currently is active, and you can check it for updates.

Meanwhile, Taco Steve's new hours (inside Destinations Booksellers at 604 E. Spring) are Monday through Saturday from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Keep reading for the weekend twist.

Beginning this weekend (Friday, January 12 and Saturday, January 13), Eh Cumpari Pizza's mobile wood-fired pizza oven will be at Taco Steve's from 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.

My friend Taco Steve has invited me to bring the pizza wagon to New Albany! I'll be firing fresh pies Friday and Saturday evenings and will be available for both dine in and carry out. I look forward to bringing some pizza love to the Sunnyside!

Note: BYOB is again legal at Taco Steve's, as he did not renew the ATC permit.

The NABC Weekend: BicenPk concert finale, Eh Cumpari, Five Foot Fish and Beers Across the Wabash.

Ladies and gentlemen, the inimitable Tony Beard's art.

NABC bids adieu to Friday night concerts downtown, and we're pumped about the annual beer fest in Lafayette on Saturday. There'll be Progressive Pints elsewhere in town and on the road, and here's the overview.

FRIDAY the 22nd

Tonight is the finale of the 2014 Bicentennial Park Summer Concert Series. Because three bands are booked tonight to make up for the rainout on August 8, the music is likely to continue until at least 10:00 p.m. Production Simple provides the overview:

Join us this Friday for the next and final installment of our Bicentennial Summer Concert Series in beautiful downtown New Albany. Our FREE and family-friendly summer concert series concludes Friday, August 22nd, with performances by Humming House, Bookshelf, and Nick Dittmeier. Gates open at 5PM, and music starts right around 6PM. For more details on this fun and all-ages event, please visit: http://bit.ly/1zAANgm

NABC will be there to offer accompaniment to the music. Our recently updated selection is Naughty Girl, Action! Pale Ale, Community Dark and Frankensteiner. The latter is our newly released Hefeweizen, or Bavarian-style, wheat ale.

On a season-ending note, and in response to a question I received, please know that NABC donates a portion of its events/catering beer sales after costs and taxes to Rauch Inc. and Open Door Youth Services.

Also, remember that when patronizing Bank Street Brewhouse before or after the show, or any other time, Wick's Pizza will deliver anything on its food menu to BSB, and give you a generous 20% discount on the order. We're appreciative to Wick's for this generous standing offer, which might well be the finest deal in town.

SATURDAY the 23rd: NABC at HOME

Speaking of pizza and music ... Bank Street Brewhouse welcomes Eh Cumpari Pizza and Five Foot Fish on Saturday night.

Eh Cumpari is a start-up mobile wood-fired pizza maker. He'll begin around 5:00 p.m.

Five Foot Fish is a band, and the music starts at 8:00 p.m.

As an aside, last Saturday's second in an ongoing series of pop-up restaurants at BSB (Danny Joe’s “Nashville Style” Hot Fried Chicken) was purely bonkers. 165 lbs of fried chicken was spoken for long before 7:00 p.m. Thanks to those who attended, and I hope you got food before it was gone. Chef Dan Thomas is contemplating an October menu of German fest food, so stay tuned ... and come early.

SATURDAY the 23rd: NABC on the ROAD

We’re headed north for Beers Across the Wabash in Lafayette, Indiana, and this year there is more excitement than ever because it’s the debut of People’s Republic of New Albania. NABC collaborated with People’s Brewing Company to brew this Bavarian-style Zwickelbier, which will debut at Beers Across the Wabash at both our tents. It also will pour at NABC’s two New Albany locations in late August.

Also on Saturday, August 23, NABC will be present at this year’s Brew at the (Louisville) Zoo. It appears that tickets already have sold out, but I'm sure the secondary market as yet thrives.

SUNDAY the 24th 

Bring a picnic basket, pack in carry-outs or order delivery, and pair our Beers of Proven Merit with the very best food from local eateries ... well, at least those open on Sunday. Always remember that Indiana does have carry-out beer sales on Sunday: At Hoosier craft breweries. For carry-out wine on Sunday, visit our friends at River City Winery or Indiana's many other artisanal wine makers.
