2. In other Japanese beer news, there's a new black beer created to be paired with the official food of summer, eel.
3. Früli, a new strawberry beer that's taken Europe by storm, is on its way to the US.
4. Beernews wants to know if the pumpkin beers coming out now are early, or just leftover from last year.
5. Colorado's Wynkoop Brewery is brewing a new porter to raise money for gorilla conservation.
