A new beer inspired by Clermont Lounge legend Blondie is being released later this month.

LaGrange-based brewing company Beacon Brewing Co. created "Crushable" as an ode to the entertainer's penchant for crushing beer cans with her chest while reading poetry.
To celebrate the blonde lager's release, the brewery is throwing a party 8 p.m. Sept. 27. There is a $10 cover charge.

The honor comes as Blondie, 62, celebrated 40 years at the establishment in April.

A 2014 film, AKA Blondie, by local director Jon Watts, delved into Blondie’s personal life and her advocacy for gay rights.
