It's Gobble Time, Bitches!

11/24/2021

Howdy-do kids and squids! It's nigh-on gobble time and that means we're due for one of the most highly-anticipated (by us) recurring segments on this ol' blog and that's our beer and Thanksgiving pairings! But we'll get to that in due time, because I'm being told that first we need to get through the "actual blog" that "people might want to read" because it's "more useful," which would be a fair point except that I'm pretty sure most of our readership consists of friends of Ben's who skim the text to see if he gets explicitly made fun of this week. But I digress. Onward!

No sass, all sunsets over here

First and/or foremost and/or unsurprisingly there will be no cask this week. It's a bit of a bummer if you're a cask aficionado or whatever, but we're takin' the time to stock up on some tasty-ass cask goodies and we'll be rockin' the beer engine right on schedule with some pretty rad stuff next week, so never you worry!

Stay tuned!

And moving ever closer to the Turkey Day Festivities is our Shitty Wednesday Bottle Release! The day before Thanksgiving (which we have dubbed Shitty Wednesday for reasons that should be obvious) is pretty much always a hassle and/or a downer so we're tryin' to raise some spirits by releasing a whole crapton of bottles!

We've got some rereleases (barrel-aged Biere de Krampus, Blood of Krampus, Yelling at Birds) and some brand new beers (Menagerie, Ginger Occasion) and a beer that's available to-go for the first time (Critters XIV) and a beer that we definitely didn't lose in the cold room for an embarrassing amount of time (Critters IX) and that's all on top of our already-awesome bottle list (Joybringer, Joyrider, Barrel-aged El Pulpo, The Gargoyle, Funky Life, Squash Everything) and also we're givin' out some sweet glassware if you buy a half case of bottles (or more, obvs) and anyway my point is that there's a whole buncha delicious-ass beer available in bottles and you should come grab some!

Look at that HAPPY fridge

Oh! Also! Since we're re-releasing both of our bottled Krampus beers we thought this would be a fitting time to release our vaguely-XMas-themed merch: Krampus shirts! They're rad as heck and they're available right now!

And! Lastly! On Saturday we've got new-to-us Chef Jems popping up in the taproom with birria tacos!

Taco time! 

And now! With all the beer releases and merch and events out of the way, we move on to our annual Beer and Thanksgiving Pairings! What started as poking gentle fun at the weirdness of Thanksgiving traditions (seriously, none of this shit makes any sense at all) has blossomed into a series of "pairings" that range from "inadvisable" to "illegal" but which somehow still won't get you uninvited from next year's dinner, because gathering all your craziest relatives in one room and giving them booze is an Important Tradition. And so, without further ado, and in no particular order, we present to you the 2021 Bone Up Thanksgiving Beer Pairings:

Cheers!

Extra Naked
pairs well with... wishing you hadn't eaten so much the previous day
and if you don't have any Extra Naked, we suggest... shame eating

Shut Up Kelly!
pairs well with... ooOOOooh! Somebody brought fudge?!
and if you don't have any Shut Up Kelly, we suggest... trying to convince your elderly aunt to do shots of Allen's Coffee Brandy with you

Ginger Spectacular
pairs well with... trying to get out of any and all discussions about politics
and if you don't have any Ginger Spectacular, we suggest... pointing into the middle distance and yelling "what's that!?" and then running away, giggling

El Pulpo
pairs well with... constructing increasingly-elaborate forts with your youngest relatives
And if you don't have any El Pulpo, we suggest... acting so erratically at the dinner table that you get banished to the kids' playroom to go watch Dumbo like six times in a row because that's somehow the only movie they have. Again.

Joyrider
pairs well with... compressing, shaping, and re-baking the stuffing to use as hard taco shells
And if you don't have any Joyrider, we suggest... pointing out each dish individually and making the argument that it "technically qualifies as a taco." Really fight to make your point. Make a chart if you have to.

Ginger Disco
pairs well with... serving people "roulette brownies" where a small percentage of random brownies are completely full of habanero powder.
And if you don't have any Ginger Disco, we suggest... same thing, but throw a couple THC brownies in there too.

Joybringer
pairs well with... making up songs about the foods you're about to eat while you fill your plate
And if you don't have any Joybringer, we suggest... putting on a puppet show wherein you have the turkey carcass stage a Gallagher-style performance and messily smash the giblets with a potato

Blood of Krampus
pairs well with... speaking in rhyme for the entire day
And if you don't have any Blood of Krampus, we suggest... speaking in riddles for the entire day

Barrel-aged El Pulpo
pairs well with... happily shouting
And if you don't have any Barrel-aged El Pulpo, we suggest... angrily shouting

Funky Life
pairs well with... going a little wild on the hors d'oeuvres as a treat. You earned it!
And if you don't have any Funky Life, we suggest... reconfiguring the entire menu so that every item starts with "bacon-wrapped." And I do mean EVERY item. Make a bacon envelope so you can have bacon-wrapped cranberry sauce.

Quadless Leg Monster
pairs well with... saying "you know, in England they refer to this as 'pudding'" every time a new dish gets passed into your hands
And if you don't have any Quadless Leg Monster, we suggest... dipping your turkey in pudding

The Gargoyle
pairs well with... trying to convince people that turkey and peanut butter really do go well together (which they do)
and if you don't have any The Gargoyle, we suggest... making peanut butter gravy and then fleeing the scene before anyone tastes the abomination you have wrought upon this world

Organ Meats
pairs well with... trying to "spice things up" by making your (in)famous ghost pepper sweet potatoes
and if you don't have any Organ Meats, we suggest... removing an item of clothing every time somebody complains about needing to wear a mask when out in public (and/or other covid-related precautions as you see fit)

The Sachem's Ale
pairs well with... seeing how much weird/junk food you can cram into a casserole dish while still being able to convince people it's a "family tradition" (lookin at you, cream-of-mushroom-soup-green-bean-fried-onion casserole)
and if you don't have any The Sachem's Ale, we suggest... making a bunch of those savory Jell-O dishes from the 70s and serving them with a straight face

Yelling at Birds
pairs well with... finding your most tinfoil-hat relative and getting them all wound up about whatever conspiracy theory they're shouting about this month
and if you don't have any Yelling at Birds, we suggest... subtly trying to convince your tinfoil-hat relative(s) that you're one of the Lizard People or whatever

Barrel-aged Biere de Krampus
pairs well with... making a raspberry pie with an Oreo crust
and if you don't have any Barrel-aged Biere de Krampus, we suggest... crushing a bunch of Oreos and making Double Stuff Stuffing

Squash Everything
pairs well with... making deep-fried versions of everything. Go all "Midwestern state fair" on your Thanksgiving
and if you don't have any Squash Everything, we suggest... gravy cocktails!

Emerald Spire
pairs well with... pretending to be interested in watching The Game in order to get out of making small talk
and if you don't have any Emerald Spire, we suggest... getting out of small talk AND sports talk by cornering people into an exhaustive explanation of the recent drama on Spackle TikTok* (repeat as necessary until people are afraid to even make eye contact with you)

Menagerie
pairs well with... making bacon-chocolate fudge
and if you don't have any Menagerie, we suggest... using pâté as frosting on a bunch of cupcakes

Green Smoothie
pairs well with... deep-fried mashed potato balls
and if you don't have any Green Smoothie, we suggest... making a "deconstructed" Thanksgiving menu where you just replace all the traditional Thanksgiving foods with things that people actually want to eat** (fried chicken instead of turkey, sweet potato fries instead of candied yams, maybe come up with some kind of convoluted explanation for how pizza is "really a stand-in for stuffing and gravy," et cetera).

Awkward Conversation
pairs well with... going all Winnie The Pooh on the cranberry sauce and eating it directly out of the can with your bare hand
and if you don't have any Awkward Conversation, we suggest... dressing like Winnie The Pooh

Critters IX
pairs well with... Bulgarian feta. It has nothing to do with the holiday, but it's a really tasty pairing.
and if you don't have any Critters IX, we suggest... going back to bed.

Ginger Occasion
pairs well with... biting your tongue when somebody asks "so when will you be having kids?"
and if you don't have any Ginger Occasion, we suggest... responding to all uncomfortable questions by saying "you know, that's a funny story" and then telling a very long story that goes nowhere (bonus points if, when people try to get you back on topic and/or change the subject, you say "oh hold on, I'm getting there" and then launch into a completely different pointless story)

Rakau
pairs well with... volunteering to make the last-minute grocery store run to get out of helping around the house
and if you don't have any Rakau, we suggest... getting the shopping list *ever* so slightly wrong so you have/get to go to the store repeatedly

Critters XIV
pairs well with... insistently using the word "damp" in lieu of "moist" when talking about food
and if you don't have any Critters XIV, we suggest... trying to get out of IRL Turkey Day by constructing and sending a "Digital Avatar" that's really just an old iPhone taped to a skateboard

The Horned Beast
pairs well with... trying to carve the turkey with a katana
and if you don't have any The Horned Beast, we suggest... trying to start a hoedown at the dinner table by playing the jug (empty wine bottle) and the spoons (ideally still covered in side-dishes) and insistently trying to convince others to join in and play your "spare fiddle" (you can leave this part out if you only brought one fiddle this year)

* Yes, this is a real thing. Or at least that's what we're told - we learned about it from reading Garbage Day like normal people.
** Some of you are probably saying "you're crazy! I love Thanksgiving food!" And yeah, sure, but if that's really the case then why do you only eat it once per year?

In Which We Shift Into Turkey Mode

11/17/2021

Howdy all! We've got a right-on righteous lineup lined up for all y'all this week, though it might not hardly compete with the seemingly-infinite deluge of beer and good times and friendship and sushi that we've been havin' around here these past couple weeks but that's all good because we gotta take some time to sit and drink a beer in between releasing all these new beers and oh wait oh man oh crap we released a beer a couple days ago and we might have forgotten to tell you so let's get on with it!

But first, SUSHI PIZZA
(Seriously, if you haven't done one of Chef Harold's sushi classes yet, check your priorities)

And on that note, let's talk about Oh My! We had a bit of a hankerin' for some of the styles we were gettin' into back in the good ol' days of yore,* so we cracked open the ol' recipe book and plucked out this ol' west coast (ish) IPA and took a couple "new school" tricks and tweaked up that ol' recipe a bit (a lot. So much) and now it's on tap and in cans!

And it's a good thing that we remembered to shout about Oh My, because that's this week's cask! We took a big ol' buncha comet (which is one of the main hops in the beer to begin with) and gave that ol' cask a double dose and it's gonna be on tap starting on Thursday and you should drink some!

And unlike some of the non-BUBco west coast IPAs we've had of late, this one actually tastes like malt.

Anyway, moving on and moving forward, this week is our Funksgiving dinner with Brato! They're bringin' in some Thanksgiving-style eats and all the foods have been expertly paired with our holiday flight and we might have a surprise musical guest (who might not be a surprise? I don't always see the insta stories) and anyway it's gonna be fun times and tasty times and you should come hang out!

C'mon, how awesome does that menu sound

And speaking of turkey day, we're gonna peer a bit farther into the future all the way up to everybody's (least) favorite day of the year: Shitty Wednesday! And since nobody likes sitting in traffic or relearning just how terrible it is to try and sleep on a convertible sofa or enduring intense, visceral reminders of why they stopped talking to everybody from high school in the first place,** we figured we'd "sweeten the deal" by releasing a buncha cool bottles! We've got at least five releases lined up (including some rereleases of old favorites) and there might be some funky stuff if we're all lucky and anyway you should swing on by:

BOTTLE RELEASES!

Biere de Krampus - biere de noel aged in peach brandy barrels, 7.6% ABV
Blood of Krampus - biere de noel aged in whiskey barrels, 7.5% ABV
The Gargoyle - dark strong ale aged in apple brandy and blueberry liqueur barrels, 9.5% ABV
Ginger Occasion - saison brewed with ginger and honey, then aged in blueberry liqueur barrels, 8.5% ABV
Menagerie - smoked dark saison aged in whiskey barrels, 8.3% ABV
Yelling at Birds - Belgian tripel aged in blueberry liqueur barrels, 8.7% ABV
Critters IX - farmhouse ale with Brettanomyces, lime, and apricot, 4.5% ABV
Critters XIV - sour saison, 5% ABV

ALSO AVAILABLE IN BOTTLES!

Joybringer - Belgian tripel, 8.7% ABV
Joyrider - Belgian tripel aged in rye whiskey barrels, 8.7% ABV
El Pulpo - chocolate orange imperial stout aged in rye whiskey barrels, 8.0% ABV
Funky Life - wild ale, 6.6% ABV
Squash Everything - Belgian golden strong ale brewed with butternut squash, then aged in apple brandy barrels, 8.0% ABV

"Taste the rainbow"

And since we're (still) talking about Thanksgiving and all its concomitant nonsense, we should probably tell you our holiday hours!

Here they are!

And, lastly but hardly leastly, if you're the "planning ahead" type, you may well wanna know about the winter holiday market that we'll be running throughout December! Long story short, we wanted to showcase some local artists and artisans (and also food vendors, who - in our humble opinion - count as both of those things) and also we wanted to help you out with any holiday shopping needs you may have (and/or we wanted to provide "holiday shopping" as an excuse for you to come have beers with us) so we're havin' a buncha local folks set up shop in our taproom on weekends throughout the month and you should come out and support local as you drink local!

Woo!

* OK fine, Jared kept moping about how he "misses malt" so we made this to get him to shut up.
** Seriously, don't go to a bar in your hometown on Shitty Wednesday. I guarantee you it will be worse than whatever you were trying to avoid by going to the bar.

Viva El Pulpo!

Ahoy there! We're settin' sail into a new week full of good times and/or tastes and/or whathaveyou and we'd like to offer you a seat aboard the S.S. I Don't Feel Like Continuing This Metaphor Anymore where we'll detail in various amounts of detail the fact that we are Gettin' Real about The Holiday Season. Mostly that means a whole mess of beer releases (including some upcoming barrel-aged stuff. So, so much barrel-aged stuff), but also we've got ever so much fun stuff lined up for you, so read on!

It's quite delicious, if we do say so ourselves!

First up! Remember those two about-to-be-released beers I mentioned last week? Awkward Conversation and The Horned Beast? Well, we released them! They're both available on draft and in cans right now and since these beers are (arguably) holiday(s) themed that means that our Thanksgiving Mixed Pack (which I also mentioned last week, albeit briefly) will be available very soon (as in, pretty much right after El Pulpo gets released) and my point is that we made a bunch of cool stuff and you should try it!

Gobble gobble y'all

Movin' right on along into other things that are good, this Thursday we're tappin' a cask of a new taproom favorite (which was brewed so we could say a proper Goodbye Forever to an old favorite of a hop) and that's Rakau! We didn't dry hop it with Rakau because we used all of our Rakau making the beer itself and I'm not entirely sure what we did dry hop it with because SOMEbody* didn't write it down and I don't feel like getting up to check so it'll be a mystery until we tap it but you can bet that it's gonna be good!

Notes? What notes?

And speaking of Thursday, this Thursday is Simpsons Trivia! This time around, Chris had the extremely clever idea to have the theme be "Season Eleven" because Thursday's date is 11/11 and anyway that's gonna prove to be an interesting time because that's the season when the show starts to go completely off the rails but hasn't hit its full-on "descent into madness" stages yet and I'm rambling but I guess the point is that it's gonna be fun and you should come!

Anyone's guess as to what horrible prizes Jared will pull out of the box this week!

And while we're on about fun things that you should come to, this weekend is Pulpo Day! Starting on Friday we're releasing our beloved winter seasonal - a chocolate orange imperial stout that goes by the name of El Pulpo - and we're puttin' on some ballyhoo to celebrate! This year's version of El Pulpo will be available on tap and in cans and in crowlers and growlers and we'll have this year's barrel-aged El Pulpo (aged in Wigle rye barrels) on tap and in bottles and we'll be tapping some cellared vintages of El Pulpo (both barrel-aged and otherwise) and we'll have some limited bottles of those vintages as well and it's gonna be a good time and you should come!

We haven't *not* been dipping into the stash all week... just to make sure it's good...

And since we've gotten into the habit of taking our fake holidays and stretching them into several-day affairs, the Pulpo Day festivities continue into Saturday! It's pretty much the same deal on Saturday what with all the cool cellared beers available on tap and/or in bottles, only we'll also have food (courtesy of the Nada Cart)!

And since it's apparently not enough for us to have a days-long fake holiday this weekend, we've also got some largely-unrelated events happening!

Pulpo Time! And some other stuff!

First up, on Saturday at 10:30 in the dang morning is goth yoga! We're bringin' in a new-to-us yoga teacher who'll be leading you through some yoga while you listen to Depeche Mode and The Cure! And then afterwards you can hang out and drink some beers while listening to music that is almost definitely not going to be Depeche Mode or The Cure unless Matt figures out the password to our taproom radio again.

And then on Saturday evening we're gonna be part of the first virtual event that we've done in a good long while but it's for a good cause and that cause is the Hartshorne House! We'll be leading you through some beer and cheese pairings (more to the point, the beers will be that Thanksgiving Mixed Pack I mentioned earlier, minus the optional bottle of Squash Everything) and there'll be some local historical tales (provided by somebody who actually knows history, not by us) and if that sounds like your cuppa tea you should join us!

Ticket sales close TODAY, so grab 'em now: Beer and Cheese Pairing

Moving right along through the weekend and beyond, we've got more cooking classes on the schedule since y'all seem to be diggin' 'em! Sushi making is back on Sunday and also next Wednesday and Ten Types of Handmade Pasta is in the house on Tuesday and there's probably definitely more after that but we try to keep things more-or-less focused on the "here and now" in this ol' blog so that's it for now!

Chef Harold brings it for his sushi class! Grab tickets here: Sushi Making 101

But since we *are* rambling on a bit about Future Times, it behooves us to bring up our upcoming Funksgiving beer dinner next Friday with Brato! We'll be doing an in-person dinner with an a la carte-style Thanksgiving-themed food menu and a paired flight (which - you guessed it - is based off of our Thanksgiving Mixed Pack), or if you wanna have your pre-Thanksgiving Thanksgiving dinner at home you can preorder the food as a meal kit which comes with the same beers, only in can/bottle form this time!

Check out this awesome menu for the taproom pop up:

BEER FLIGHT
Awkward Conversation - cranberry orange grisette
The Horned Beast - hazy IPA
Squash Everything - Belgian golden strong ale brewed with butternut squash and aged in apple brandy barrels
El Pulpo - chocolate orange imperial stout

POP UP MENU $17 per plate
Beer brined roast turkey porchetta (white and dark meat)

Choice of three of five sides:
Pumpkin and cider donut stuffing
White truffle, mushroom, and green bean casserole w/fried garlic chips
Apple and cheddar mac 'n cheese
Smoked carrots with browned butter and sage
Miso butter cornbread

YAAASS

And if we're peerin' even farther into the future we'll see a sneak peek of all those barrel-aged beer releases I talked about! We've got a whole pile of cool beer releases (including the return of some old favorites) scheduled for the day that everyone loves to hate: Shitty Wednesday! Many peoples' Thanksgiving plans involve sitting in traffic for hours on end on this particular Wednesday (which is often followed by the totally-not-uncomfortable experience of going to a bar in your hometown and seeing a bunch of people you went to high school with, only to be immediately reminded of why you didn't keep in touch in the first place) so we figured we'd give y'all a little something to brighten your day and that means bottles! I'll save the full release schedule for next time, since this is pretty much the world's longest teaser, so keep them eyes peeled!

* JUSTIN.

In Which We Have an Awkward Conversation

Howdy-do, camperoos! We've got a schedule packed fulla hella cool stuff and a fridge jam-packed fulla cans and bottles and crowlers (remember crowlers? We still fill them! How else you gonna get that sweet Green Smoothie action in the comfort of your own home?) and some teasers for future stuff and also a whole heck of a lot of tasty beer, so check out all this stuff we got goin' on!

Crowwwwllll

First on up is something that's neither beer nor fun event, but is nonetheless important, which is to say that we've got flannels! Right now! We changed things up a bit this time around and went "back to our roots"* and now we've got some sweet new swag! And even better - they all have pockets! I mean, most flannels have pockets, but some of these have secret pockets! Check 'em out!

Not pictured: secret pockets

Anydangways, movin' right on in to beer, we got a brand spankin' new barrel-aged beer and it's called The Gargoyle and it's available in bottles right now (and it'll be on tap at some point or other) and you should drink some!

(Please don't sue us, Stone Brewing. We just really like naming our beers after creatures)

And speaking of beer, we've got a couple new releases that are just around the corner and they're gonna be part of our sweet-ass vaguely-Thanksgiving-themed mixed-pack!

It's gobble time, bitches!

First on up (which is to say, on draft and in cans soon) is Awkward Conversation! We spent a while trying to think up Thanksgiving and/or general end-of-year holiday beer themes and we were comin' with nothin' short of bupkis until we realized that we needed to look towards the true meaning** of The Holiday Season: putting on uncomfortable clothes and forcing yourself to make small talk with a bunch of people that you see once a year! And since beer is the perfect thing to fill the (many, many) awkward silences you'll get to endure, we brewed up a tasty' lil' grisette and crammed it fulla cranberry and orange purees and soon you'll be able to drink some!

Good taste? Good taste!

And the next new beer slated for that ol' Holiday Mix Pack is an IPA (because this is AMERICA) and it's called The Horned Beast and the name/concept for this beer is based around us definitely having a firm grasp of all the subtle nuance around this "giving of thanks" holiday and it absolutely isn't us making up a bunch of weird crap because there's no real way to combine the concepts of "Thanksgiving-themed" and "IPA." Anyway this beer features a buncha local grains and some local hops and it's damn good and you'll be able to drink some soonish!

And while we're still goin' on about beer, it behooves us to mention that this week's trusty Thursday cask is gonna be Shut Up Kelly! And since we don't feel like ol' Kelly needs any funny business to be straight-up tasty times on cask, we didn't throw in any funny business and it's gonna be tasty times!

Big yum right here

And if you're lookin' for something to do while you sip on some smooth cask goodness, this Thursday it's once again time for Audio Triviality! And since this month's theme is "Motörhead" we figured we'd try and bring in some thematically-appropriate eats and boy howdy did we ever because we got Bonetown BBQ in the house and I'm pretty sure they're gonna have a Motörhead-themed menu and it's gonna be a ton of fun and you should come hang out!

Spoiler alert: every answer is "Lemmy"

And speaking of metal and hanging out and fun times, we totally forgot to give a shout-out to the folks from Dzö-nga for comin' out for the beer release shindig a little ways back! It was a whole buncha fun - we got to hang out and drink some beers and listen to some good tunes and (on a slightly more selfish note) we got to meet people from a couple other rad metal bands (some of whom we may well be collabin' with in the nearish future, so keep them eyes peeled) and also Jared wrote himself a note to "check out that ren faire sea shanty metal band they sound rad" which almost definitely isn't as informative as he thought it was at the time but anyway it was a great time and we hope to do it again soon!

Sometimes our jobs are cool

But getting back to the ol' "here and now" (or at least closer to it), this Friday we've got a new-to-us popup joining us in the taproom which means we're gonna get to have Birria Tacos with Chef Jems! We ain't never had us no birria tacos in the taproom before, so we're darn excited to get to try them in a couple days. Darn excited!

And moving right along a little further into the weekend, our very own in-house photographer Matt (AKAed as Bananamasher, also AKAed as our heavy metal trivia guy) will be doin' some pet photography on Sunday! We're booking 15-minute time slots for each pet (or set of pets) so things shouldn't get too chaotic and there's only a couple left so sign on up if you want some snazzy pet photos! There's a couple spots left, so grab your spot here: Pet Photo Booth

...aaand taking things a bit further past this coming weekend, we gots to let you know that we're yet again hosting some cooking classes next week! We've got Sushi Making next Tuesday and Ten Types of Handmade Pasta on Wednesday and the classes are fun as hell and you should come!

And since I'm talking about next week anyway I might as well mention that next Thursday is the next round of Simpsons Trivia and since it's gonna be on 11/11 our dashing host figured that the theme would be Season Eleven! Anyway it's a buncha fun and you might win some extremely stupid prizes (and maybe some good ones, but that's less likely) and you should come on out!

P.S. You should totally check out our site's new Upcoming Events page for all the Fun Things happening over the next couple of months! Thanks for finally nudging us to get this live, Amy!

And lastly but not leastly for the big ol' events happening next week: Pulpo Day is coming! We're ever so fond of our seasonal chocolate orange stout, so we're throwin' a bit of a shindig for its release! We'll have this year's El Pulpo on draft and in cans (obviously, or this wouldn't really be much of a thing) and we'll have this year's barrel-aged El Pulpo in bottles and/or on draft (unless something goes horribly awry with the barrels at the last minute) and we'll be bustin' out some vintage pulpo (both barrel-aged and otherwise) on draft and/or in bottles and since that's a whole heapin' lot of stuff we're makin' this a two-day thing next Friday and Saturday and it's gonna be a good time! (Oh and also there's gonna be Goth Yoga on Saturday morning, which is unrelated but also sounds pretty rad)

My goodness, is it Pulpo Time already?

It is indeed!

And I've already rambled way too much for one dang blog post so I'll just tack on a quick note to check out the sweet deets on our Funksgiving dinner that we're doin' with Brato! Click the picture to check out the menu and/or place a preorder!

Why, yes, I did have to Google what porchetta is

Oh! And! I almost forgot! We pored over the October coloring contest submissions and it was a doozy of a time picking just one winner because of all the extremely adequate submissions but we did pick a winner and here's all the winners and/or runners-up!

Adequate work, Allie!

* We bought a moderately-concerning number of shirts from Costco and had somebody embroider our logo on them. That's how we used to roll back in the day, and we liked Costco's flannel selection this year so we brought it back.
** Obviously the real true meaning of the season is free ham, but this is close enough.
