Bloomberg has a video with a profile of Dogfish Head founder Sam Calagione.
It looks like The Bruery did some sour barrel blending today.

Daily Beer Digest -- 06.29.2011
Flying Dog now has a partial victory in its battle with the Michigan Liquor Control Commission. Yesterday, the Commission reversed its earlier decision banning Flying Dog's signature Raging Bitch Belgian IPA because of the name and supposedly graphic artwork. Flying Dog previously filed a lawsuit in federal court in Michigan, alleging violation of its First Amendment rights. The brewery's blog indicates that the lawsuit will still go forward as the brewery seeks to vindicate the rights of breweries to engage in free speech, and also seeks damages for lost sales during the period in which the beer was banned.

Growth updates: Stone grew 42% in Q1 2011, while Dogfish grew 25% in the same quarter. Dogfish hopes to level out at a "lower" level like this for a smoother growing process.
John Trogner, one of the "Troegs" brothers, is helping Stone brew a Cherry Chocolate Stout with the winners of Stone's recent AHA contest.

Great Divide is pulling out of a large number of states, including Michigan, DC, and much of Virginia. Luckily, it looks like Northern Virginia customers will still have access to Great Divide through Hop & Wine, so DC is mostly in the clear as well. Musings Over a Pint has a post on Great Divide's back-and-forth history in Virginia.
In other distribution news, Shelton Brothers is pulling out of Indiana, meaning the Hoosier state will no longer receive beer from Cantillon, Mikkeller, Struise, and others. See the report from Hoosier Beer Geek. This is yet another setback for Indiana, which also recently lost Dogfish Head.
De Struise released a small number of bottles of Double Black, a massive 26% iced version of Cuvee Delphine, early this morning, around 5:00 AM EDT. The bottles sold out in a little over an hour, even with a hefty price tag. Here's the Beer Advocate discussion on the topic. Thankfully, rumor has it that the next batch will be out soon and released in 33cl bottles as opposed to this release, which was in 750ml bottles.
The tax relief bill for small brewers has been introduced in the House and Senate.
Based on a tweet from FiftyFifty (Twitter), it looks like this year's Eclipse versions will be aged in the following barrels: Buffalo Trace (new), Elijah Craig (was previously done in 2009), Four Roses (previously done in 2010), and Rittenhouse Rye (new). The brewery also put up a separate webpage devoted to Eclipse, which announces that Futures for this year's batch will be available on April 15.
New information on the status of Discovery's Brewmasters TV show came to light today, as Anthony Bourdain tweeted that Big Beer had nixed the program by threatening to pull their advertising. The revelation sparked quite a bit of discussion on Beer Advocate.

Todd Ashman of FiftyFifty offers his thoughts on one of the segments of this year's Craft Brewers Conference.
Bell's posted an official press release regarding its cease and desist letter to Northern Brewer, which was referenced here yesterday.
Maryland may soon join Virginia and DC in allowing the direct shipment of some alcohol. Now, let's just hope this includes beer and not just wine. Thanks to Beer in Baltimore for the tip.
The Atlantic recently interviewed Sam Calagione of Dogfish Head.
There were 6,000 tickets sold to Dark Lord Day. Also, the Munster police plan on keeping tighter control on the festivities this year.
