Unlike other beer festivals, the vibe at ours has a certain quaintness partly due to its location in our picturesque downtown under a grove of oak trees on the Tallahatchie Riverbank. That, and we put as much energy into the quality of the music, food, and art as we do the beer selection, which creates a very well-rounded event. I feel that New Albany\u2019s downtown has tangible momentum right now, with the new wine and liquor laws, the recent successes of other local food, art and music events, the grand opening of the Tanglefoot Trail, the award-winning tennis facilities, and\u00a0the hiring of <b>Sean Johnson<\/b> as the new Director of Marketing for the city.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Beer Tasting Presented by Clark Beverage Group, Yazoo Brewing Company, Blue Canoe, Sugaree\u2019s Bakery, Tallahatchie Gourmet and<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":238,"featured_media":9256,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[321,68],"tags":[2067,2122,2119,2120,1806,5,2124,1672,2117,2118,1779,2123,1998,2121],"class_list":["post-9255","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-localfestivals","category-local-food","tag-beer-festival","tag-blue-canoe","tag-cake-walkers","tag-clark-beverage-group","tag-mary-jennifer-russell","tag-mississippi","tag-mississippi-development-authority","tag-new-albany","tag-sean-johnson","tag-sugarees-bakery","tag-tallahatchie","tag-tallahatchie-gourmet","tag-tallahatchie-on-tap","tag-yazoo-brewing-company"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/TLV-187-DA-totposter.jpg?fit=533%2C800&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9255","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/238"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9255"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9255\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9256"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9255"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9255"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thelocalvoice.net\/oxford\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9255"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
