Oh hi! How are you? I trust you're well. And more to the point, I hope you've got a hankerin' for some delicious beers and tasty treats and fun times, because we got alla that comin' atcha this week!
First on up, on tap right now we've got a little bit of a "sneak peek" at some of the goodies that'll be on tap for this year's Horatio Day, namely Melvin the Mammoth (Stays Home) and Barrel-Aged Biere de Krampus! (We've got session stuff and hoppy stuff on the way too, I promise)

And since we're talking about Horatio Day (as if we ever stop), we should probably mention that it's just three short* weeks until Horatio Day! Yessir, our annual birthday-party-for-a-cartoon-skeleton-turned-barrel-aged-beer-fest is almost here! And since we like to "treat you right" on these special occasions, we've got one hell of a draft list lined up (including all four Melvin variants! And the last log of Fancy Pants! And like fifteen other things!) and there's gonna be bacon and there's gonna be donuts and we got a decibel meter this year to see how much the ambient noise increases over the course of the day and there's gonna be fancy glassware and there might be a cake and I probably already mentioned all the cool beers that we're gonna have on tap (barrel-aged El Pulpo! The last-ever keg of Buffalo Nickel! Fig Pig!) but it bears repeating because we're stoked as hell about all of them and we can't wait to share them with you!
Anyway. Back to livin' in the now (or at least the nearer future), we got another trusty cask comin' atcha this Thursday and this time around it's good ol' Shut Up Kelly only this time it's fortified with a fistful of spiced-rum-soaked oak chips (more to the point, the rum in question is Queequeg from Maine Craft Distilling) and whoo-dang but it's gonna be tasty!
And while we're on about Thursday, this Thursday we're doin' up more Simpsons Trivia! And since it's that dang ol' time of year when you get a constant faceful o' that ol' Holiday Spirit all the time, this trivia has a focus on the holiday specials! As an added bonus, there are way fewer holiday specials than, say, Halloween specials, which means you don't even have to study that much to school the whole dang taproom!
And if that weren't enough "holiday nonsense" for ya, now that we're getting to Prime Time for "last-minute presents that were bought at a bar," we're continuing on with our Holiday Market Series! Long story short, we're takin' some time each week of the month talk up some of the cool vendors we work with and/or shamelessly self-promote and also we're doing a bottle release every week and bringin' in tasty food (because food is tasty) and this week the focus is Drink & Draw! We've still got a buncha cool original art up for grabs in the Monday Mosh Monster exhibit (here till the end of the month), plus we gotta mention the sweet coloring books we made featuring all of the coloring contest pages plus some other cool stuff! So whether you're the "artistic" type or the "looking" type, there ain't no reason not to come grab some goodies!
Then on Friday we are (as previously mentioned) keepin' up our streak of releasing a new bottle every week and this week it's the long-awaited Skeleton Key! Not sure what Skeleton Key is? That's cool, it's not like we've been excitedly shouting about it for like seven months. Anyway, we took the recipe for our beloved Key Lime and doubled pretty much everything and then we set it to rest in a tequila barrel for a good long while and now it's ready to drink and you get to drink some! And as a special "added bonus," we're puttin' it on tap too, which means you've got double the double Key Lime!
And since Friday is such a special occasion (what with the bottles and all) and special occasions call for sandwiches, we're bringin' in our friends from Deep Cuts Deli to sling some sammiches!
Then on Saturday we're startin' off sweet before we bring the heat! We got Speakeasy Donuts comin' by at 3 and Boston HotChix swingin' by at 6 and that there's a dang ol' delicious day!
