We've gotten two festivals under our belts so far, and looking forward to the next two. Both ARKtoberfest and Little Rocktoberfest were great fun. Only two of us were able to get to the Mountain Home fest, so that limited us trying beers and seeing folks, but we got in as much as we could. We were able to stay over and go to the BCCA Arktoberfest Show and Sale (if you don't know, BCCA is beer collectibles of all kinds -cans, displays, bottles, signs, you name it). Four of us went to Little Rocktoberfest, so we were all able to get out and try more brews. We also entered our Guinnevere Belgian Strong Golden Ale into CAF's Brewery of the year - and won! Woohoo!

So, brewing. We brewed a batch of our Humble Beginnings Porter - so called because it was the first batch brewed at Gravity. We also prepped for Festival of Darkness, which is happening 10/25 at Lost Forty brewing in Little Rock. They always put on a show with a zombie theme, with an added twist - this year, it's Rodeo of No Return. Tickets go quickly, so get yours if you're planning on going.

Gravity's 12th anniversary is on 10/31 and 11/1 this year! Friday we'll have Steve Sutterfield and Kathy Jensen playing, along with potluck and any costumes you care to wear. Saturday brings us Ray and Sue Creasy and friends, and costumes if you want. Come out and help us round out our 12th!

Grapefruit Juicyfruit IPA is finally on tap and it's flying out the door!

No Kings today!!

We were finally able to tap our Eight Misbehavin' Oktoberfest this week - Oct. 1, to be exact. It's a bigger batch than usual and took its own sweet time about getting ready, and we didn't rush it. The result is smooth and malty, and a delight to drink. We'll be bringing it to all he festivals we'll be attending this month. On Saturday, Oct. 4th, we'll be in Mountain Home of ARKtoberfest, the annual fest put on by the good folks at Rapp's Barren. It runs from 2 - 7 pm. They've added a few new things this year and it looks to be a good time as usual. Proceeds are donated to the Backpack Project, which feeds food-insecure schoolkids. Come join us! The weather should be great and there will be bands playing, plus a play area for kids.

We've brought in a few more beer memorabilia items, some for the walls, and some in the display cases. We're getting low on a few beers  Skippin' Stones SIPA, Summertime Brew, and Bohemian Rhapsody Pilsner. We expect the SIPA to go real soon. We've got other beers waiting in the wings, including that slow Grapefruit Juicyfruit IPA!
