This is part of Norm Frampton’s wonderful Thursday Doors link-up.
One of my favorite places in Corydon is the Point Blank Brewing Company. They have excellent beer (not their own brew — their own brews always taste like Alka-Seltzer to me — sorry, Nathan!) and, for the intent of this post, beautiful doors.
I also like the window. The cow silhouette is on the wall inside. Because why not?
PB goes all the way through from the town square to the parallel street. I always come in on the Square side, because that’s where the hostess/host station is. That’s also where the specials are posted, and where I can call into the bar and ask what’s on draft that evening.
Here is table 101, where the Southern Indiana Writers Group usually meets.
Oh, and don’t forget to stop and have a look at the pizza oven. Wait! No! Don’t shove me in there, little girl!
A WRITING PROMPT FOR YOU: Where does your main character go to meet friends?

December 3, 2015 at 7:53amThanks for the mention. I absolutely love the window with the cow. That is so clever! Very nice doors and I’m glad to hear that you can find a beer that you enjoy. I’ve been to micro-brewery based bars where the only beers sold are the ones brewed there, and none seem interesting to me.

December 3, 2015 at 8:47amYeah, I’ve been to a couple of those, too, and haven’t been pleasantly surprised. But whoever chooses the other-people’s-beers for Point Blank does a stellar job!

December 3, 2015 at 8:49amHa! And I was there one evening when #1 Daughter’s book club met at PB, and THEY were at 101. That must be the Noisy People Table. lol

December 3, 2015 at 9:51amDon’t tease me with that oven door! Doubtless, you recall my tale re my neighbors believing I was a witch! All it took was my giant black cat and the inexplicable charm I held on their children (I paid attention to them). Ah, the good olde days.
I’m so jealous of your Old Rasputin! I still have the bottle from my years-ago taste experience. It was divine!
Thanks for the tour. Can’t wait to get there!

December 3, 2015 at 1:47pmI do remember! I feel so sorry for those kids, growing up with those parents.
Yeah, Old Ras and Guinness are my fall-backs when all else fails. 🙂 See you next week!

December 3, 2015 at 7:44pmLove micro breweries! We have several excellent ones in the Naperville area, but their beer is good. 🙂 Nice doors as well. I see by what you’re drinking that you’re a serious dark beer lover like me. Always nice to meet another person with good taste. 🙂

December 4, 2015 at 8:00amCongratulations on having good microbreweries around! There are lots in New Albany and in Louisville, but that’s too far. A lot of folks love PB’s microbrews, so it’s just my taste. Yes, I do love stouts and porters. I like my beer like I like my men: tall, dark, and rich. ROTFL
