From Clay at Sun King Brewing in Indianapolis:
Summer is in full swing and we've got lots of new beers to help quench your thirst! Cream Dream IV: A New Hop was released las week and while it is sold out in the Tasting Room already, it can be found in a number of bars/restaurants around the city... We'll be releasing Nelson, an American Pale Ale and our version of this year's Indiana Replicale, in the Tasting Room on Friday, August 26th. Firefly Wheat, Norwegian Blue and Abbey Normal are all still around, but quantities are limited and they can mostly be found in places other than the brewery.
