In Which We Get in the Holiday Spirit!

Howdy friends! We're back in action for all your "last-minute holiday shopping needs," so long as you - like us - tend to use "holiday shopping" to mean "sitting at the bar for hours on end" (or if you - like us - only give beer and beer-related swag as gifts). Anyway we've got beer and a buncha new-to-us eats and an old friend is slingin' treats and anyway I should probably stop talking about the stuff I'm about to talk about and instead just talk about the stuff!

Merry Christmas from the BUBco Class of 2021!

And speaking of stuff, let's talk about cask! This Thursday we'll be tappin' a cask of a newcomer (and new favorite) to the draft list: Ozzy! And since Ozzy is a Good Boy and doesn't need a whole bunch of kerfuffle, we left that dang ol' beer alone so's it can strut its stuff in the cask and you should probably come drink some!

Early sunsets call for dark beers my friends

And speaking of casks, it behooves us to mention that we probably won't be tapping a cask next week on account of Holiday Hours. It's also worth pointing out that we'll be closing early on New Year's Eve unless somebody happens to rent the space out, in which case we'll be open for that person and/or their friends.

If I had something sassy to say, I'd say it here, but there's only so much you can sass up holiday hours

Anyway, gettin' into the tasty eats for the weekend, we're startin' off with new-to-us Sandwich Boy on Friday! The main thing we know about them is they make tasty fried chicken sandwiches, and we also know that we love tasty fried chicken sandwiches, so we're excited to eat some! 

And speaking of things we're excited to eat, the last in our Holiday Market Series is Top Shelf Cookies and they'll be in the taproom on Saturday from 12-4 with some seriously delicious cookies!

And if you just so happen to be lookin' for an "actual meal" before you gorge yourself on cookies, we'll be having new-to-us Biscuitdrop in the taproom on Saturday from 2-8! 

And if you're more of a "DIY" kinda person, we're hosting our last sushi class of the year on Sunday! These classes have been a big hit with everybody that's done them, so don't miss out! ​

We like food food is good

And! Lastly! Now's the time when we once again shout about how you should come to our fun-as-hell made-up-holiday that we're hosting in a few weeks: Horatio Day! We feel like it's a nice way to "shake off" some of the stress that surrounds all the name-brand holidays, and it can be very relaxing* to "let loose" with a barrel-aged beer or twelve and anyway that's what Horatio Day is all about! We'll be adding a whole mess of draft lines and there's sweet glassware and we have a bunch of awesome food vendors popping up all weekend (did we mention it was a weekend-spanning three-day-long holiday? That seems to be the trend** these days) and most of our tap lines (including the holiday-only ones) are gonna be full of barrel-aged and/or special beer and it's so much fun!

You can preorder your Horatio Day goblets here: Horatio Day 2022

​Anyway we'll be doin' this shindiggery January 7th through 9th and we're quite likely gonna be hosting a couple "private reserve" tastings where you can join Liz and Jared and drink some beers that we definitely cellared on purpose and didn't just lose in the back of the cold room for years on end but anyway that's something to keep them eyes peeled for and back to the main point: you should join us!

SOOOOOON

* Or, as we've seen a number of times, very invigorating
