Hello again! It's time again for fun times and we're in the middle of our self-imposed* "new beer hiatus" so let's get right on with it and get on to all the cool stuff we've got for you!
But first! We've got a deeply annoying Logistical Note that we should probably address: as many of you have already noticed, there's a ballet studio moving into the old Crossfit space in our building and they're remodeling the lobby bathrooms, which makes things... complicated at best for those of us who need those bathrooms (like us, for instance). And to make things even more fun, we actually learned this week that those bathrooms are part of their lease, which definitely does not raise any further questions (we have some ideas on why/how this came to be, but that's a long and frustrating story that we'll save for another time). Anyway, now that an already-annoying situation has been made even worse (for at least the second time this year), the moral of the story is that you should probably just check in with the bar staff next time you're in because they know which restrooms are/aren't active construction sites and/or blocked by weird debris.** As always, we're very sorry that you have to deal with this crap, but it's beyond our control and we're doing everything we can to make this less of a pain in the ass for you (and for what it's worth, the people from the ballet studio have been very accommodating, despite having been promised exclusive use of the space containing the lobby bathrooms).
Oh and also apparently most of our street is closed at night for the week? But our lot is still accessible (or at least, as accessible as it ever is), so if you're driving from Santilli Circle you just need to take Tileston to Williams St (and if you're coming from any other direction things are actually not really different I don't think), just FYI.

But wait! To counter all this annoying nonsense, we've got some beer-related good news! Remember when I said we wouldn't have any new beer this week? That's still true, BUT we HAVE been tappin' up some "old favorites" that have been kickin' around in the ol' cold room (and also we've restocked All the bottles if you haven't noticed) and we're gonna have a few Blast From The Past kegs on tap for a little while (kind of like when we had Dark Humor on a couple weeks ago until Sam managed to spill it all over the ceiling) and currently we've got Quadless Leg Monster! If you need a bit of a memory jog, this is a Belgian quad that we've aged in some kind of barrel (the original was apple brandy, this one is Short Path Whiskey) and I'm pretty sure this is the last keg of it that we've got (there would have been more, but Justin put a bunch of it into a blend by mistake) and anyway it's on tap right now and you should drink some while it's still around!
Anyway, getting back to all the cool fun stuff we have for you to enjoy, things start gettin' good on Thursday with KISS Trivia! Matt's gonna be dishin' up the clever queries on Gene and Paul and all the other people that are and/or were in the band and anyway it's gonna be fun and you should come hang!
Then on Friday we've got live music! Coma Hole and Adapter Adapter and Eight Foot Manchild and Trub are all gonna be playin' some tunes for the evening and we're gonna have Craig Mac 'n Cheese servin' up some tasty-ass cheesy goodness and things are gettin' goin' on the early side so come rock out with us!

Then on Saturday we've got our Harvest Market! We've got a buncha cool local vendors like Forestopia (nuts, flour, teas) and Lizard Mill (hot sauce) and Open Fire (seasoning/rubs) and of course Light of Day Records (vinyl) and we're gonna have some more live music, this time from Bad Idea USA and Children of the Flaming Wheel and Wicked Dead AND we've got Code 1 BBQ servin' up some tasty-ass eats so it's gonna be one hell of a fun time and you should come check it out!
Then on Sunday we've got Yappy Hour Pet Portraits in the house doing custom pet portraits! Bring in photos of your pets (or your actual pets and have her take a photo) and you'll get a custom mini portrait painted while you wait! (Or you can get it shipped for $5 if the wait starts to get too long - it takes about 15 minutes per portrait, so the line can fill up if you're not quick on the draw).
ALSO on Sunday we've got the return of our weekly sushi classes! We've felt a real absence in our lives not having Chef Harold here for the past few months (trust me, you do not want to fill our side room with raw fish in the middle of summer) but now he's back in action and the classes are fun as hell, so sign up for one already!
And then looking into the future we've got Beer Mug Painting with Inebri-Art next Tuesday and Simpsons Trivia next Thursday (Chris may have told me the theme but I forgot) and tunes from Josephine With a Cause next Friday and then Beatles Brunch next Sunday and the point is that we've got some cool stuff lined up for Future Times too!

* By "self-imposed" I mean "we're out of space in the cold room"
** Among other things, the common hallway ("murder hallway" if you're down with the lingo) now contains: a piano, two (2) car doors, part but not all of a pool table, and an assortment of fishing gear. I really wish I was making any of that up.
