2017 By the Numbers!

1/2/2018

0 Comments

 
Hi kids! We got a whole buncha stuff goin' on in the comin' week, which means a blog that's verbose even for us (including our much-anticipated* year-end wrap up: The Year By The Numbers), so let's knuckle under to the brass balls at the meat of this pop stand. 

Firstly and obviously most importantly is our totally-not-made-up-while-drinking holiday: Horatio Day! We're celebratin' the birth of our dapper logo dude** in style with a good ol' fashioned Birthday Bash that'll have cake and stickers and some special beers! In addition to our ordinary 12-beer list, we'll be introducin' the world to the Quadless Leg Monster and Shelby and Believer and reintroducin' y'all to vintage El Pulpo! As an added bonus, we got some special commemorative glassware for the event so's you can drink in all kindsa style if you so desire (just be sure to grab yours before we run out - we've got a pretty limited quantity)!
Picture
If that don't sound like enough fun to brave the chill out there so you can chill out here then I don't even know what to do with you. ​
Oh, and by the way, we released a kind-of-a-big-deal beer this past weekend: Life Sentence! It was our 150th batch, so we decided to take the recipe for Wasted Life and make it stronger and triple the hops! Ta da!
Picture
A beer that was a giant pain in the ass to make but is ever so much fun to drink.
Movin' on and movin' forward, we've got another dang ol' cask of Pullover ESB goin' on tap this Thursday and I daresay we're pretty stoked to see it back on, because the first one was mighty tasty I tell you what. 

Speaking of 
Thursday, we've got January's installment of Audio Triviality coming up this week! The theme this month is "beer," so it'll be interesting to see how badly we manage to lose despite this being the one topic that we actually know anything about. 
Picture
I'm sure it will be impressive.
And lastly but not leastly for this coming weekend, we've got the cure for all your post Horatio Day ailments: Spooky Brunch! The only logical follow up to a birthday party for a cartoon skeleton is a Halloween-themed brunch in the middle of winter, so that's exactly what we're doing.
Skull quiche? Check. Skull pizza rolls? Check. Scary good bacon? Check. Heavy metal played at the dulcet tones of elevator music volumes? Always checked.
And! As this is the beginning of the month, we gotta announce the coloring contest winners from December! Check 'em out!
Our lovely runners up!
Picture
Our winner, Bridget! (Yes, those are real googly eyes she glued to the page. A+ for mixed media use.
