Gravity To Open One Sunday A Month
After being open on the Sunday before the eclipse, we decided to do a trial run of opening one Sunday a month, generally the second Sunday of each month. Our next "Second Sunday" will be August 11, and we'll keep our regular hours of 12 noon to 8 pm.

It's Festival Time!
Festivals are starting to kick in with the warming weather. We're getting lined up to participate in a few of these. Keep on the lookout as we get more info.
Coming up on August 29-31, the ACCA National Convention will take place at the Statehouse Convention Center in Little Rock. While it's not a beer festival per se, if you have any interest in beer collectibles and/or beer history, this is the place to be.
Later in the year, the city of Fayetteville will host Falltoberfest on Sunday, September 29, from 12-6 pm. Last year's Falltoberfest proved to be a tremendous success, drawing in thousands of attendees along Dickson Street, and we'll have to wait to see if that's still the place. Check out Downtown Fayetteville Arkansas for more deets. More info as we get it.
Rapps Barren in Mtn. Home is bringing back Arktoberfest on Saturday, Oct. 5, on the square in Mtn. Home. This beerfest benefits the Backpack program, which feeds food-insecure kids. Last year there were keg-rolling and Steinhorst events, and Oktoberfest-themed food.
Lost 40's Festival of Darkness will be held in Little Rock on Saturday, Oct. 26. As usual, lumberjack zombies are the theme, with eats, music, and some awesome brews in the mix.

Pint Day Glassware
The Arkansas Brewers Guild is a not-for-profit organization that promotes breweries across the Natural State. We raise funds for the Guild through sales of Pint Day glassware and other things, including beer! This year our Pint Day glasses celebrate the eclipse with a full-color wraparound artwork on a Shaker-style glass! These are in limited quantities, and we have some for sale. So get them at Gravity while you can!

"Leash Law" at Gravity
After some irresponsible dog owners, some comments, and much discussion, we have decided to have a "leash law" at gravity. So beginning on Thursday, November 9, all pets at Gravity must be on a leash, indoors and outdoors, with the pet owner holding the other end of the leash. Apologies to the well-behaved dogs that we've seen over the years.

Next Time You're at Gravity...
Check out the new expansion! If you've been out there before, you know by now that we've made a few changes - the old cedar stump and the bamboo hop trellis are long gone; the hops were moved to the fence line; the electric line has been buried. All of the patio rocks have been taken up (although we may put them back down for the covered smokers' area) and replaced with a smooth concrete "dance floor". The crew made piers for the new posts for the tasting room expansion, put up cedar and oak posts and beams, as well as the front wall, the roof, and the west wall. Now we just need to figure out the north wall...

Support your local breweries!
Here in Arkansas, the Arkansas Brewers Guild represents the state's breweries through legislation, events, fundraisers, and media. Because of COVID-19, our Guild couldn't hold the usual tap takeovers, Oktoberfest, festivals, etc. But with the most severe part (we hope) of COVID behind us, breweries are hosting festivals and tap takeovers again. We need your help in fundraising to keep Arkansas beer-friendly. Keep a lookout for these events - we'll try and get them on here and FB - and please help out the Arkansas Brewers Guild by attending these events if you can!

More Changes at Gravity
We've made a lot of changes at Gravity. We've done a little expanding inside, and built an expansion which is mostly all enclosed to ultimately make a bigger tasting room. We also made an addition to the brew house, and we got the garage door moved to the outside of the new space. We moved all the grain to the new grain room and made the old grain room the barrel-aging room. We also made a dock for truck deliveries. We recently added a bottling machine and a canning machine (that's it in the photo, though it's hard to see!) to our gadgetry, as well as a larger grain mill. Next up - a new compressor! Progress!

Gravity Beers and Whiskey Barrels
After the success of our darker beers aged in local Rock Town Distillery bourbon barrels, we've been "rolling out the barrels" with various brews. We've put several of our brown beers in barrels, including Kilt Me Softly Scottish Ale and Oat of Sight Oat of Mind Scottish Ale. We like them for their size, quality, and "localness". When the barrels are used once, we plan to age other beers in them, including our Flandemonium Flanders Red Ale, as well as some sour and fruit-based brews. Look for more of these barrel aged beers to come on tap.
Gravity is on Facebook
We have a Facebook page...to all those folks that asked for it. Of course, we kept it simple - look us up at http://www.facebook.com/gravitybrewworks. Note that our name has no spaces; there's another site but it's not our page. So be sure you're on the right page!
