Hello again! We're back with some quick lil' dribs and drabs on account of how there's some kind of "wintertime celebration" happening later this week and there ain't much* all that's happening other than that (and it's not really the kind of celebrating you do at a bar, which is really everyone's loss).
And on that note full of holiday cheer or whatever, we should let y'all know that we will be closing early at 6pm on Saturday December 24th and we will be closed on Sunday December 25th and also we're skippin' cask this week. Merry Christmas!

But wait! There's a glimmering light of hope on the horizon, just like that thing from that famous** Christmas movie! Only in this case that light on the horizon is called Jazz from Hell and it's our newest beer! See, we had a whole bunch of Zappa (the hop) on our hands and we wanted to "test the waters" a bit so we brewed up a tasty lil' single hop beer and as it just so happens we're releasing it on the birthday*** of the man himself (Frank Zappa)! Anyway we're stoked to get to know this funky lil' hop (it's related to Medusa, the first Neomexicanus hop to hit the market, which is no longer being grown) and unless something goes awry it's on tap Today and you should have some!
Anyway with all this talk of holidays and beer and whathaveyou we'd be remiss if we didn't take the opportunity to shout about Horatio Day! It's a holiday we made up to celebrate making it through all the Name Brand Holidays and also it celebrates the birthday of our logo dude (who, as you might know, is named Horatio) and we're tappin' up a buncha cool barrel-aged beer and it runs all day on January 7th AND 8th (making the name "Horatio Day" a bit of a misnomer, but in a fun way) and there's a private tasting with Liz and Jared on Saturday morning (tickets here) if you wanna try some even cooler and rarer stuff while you also get to hear Jared forget what he's talking about while he's mid-sentence**** and then on Sunday we've got Light Of Day Records doin' a beer and vinyl pairing shindig (tickets here) and anyway it's gonna be hella fun and you should come!
* As we say every year, whether you're on the ol' Christmas Train or not, we at least hope you're able to use this season to score some free ham (or Ham Equivalent if you're not a ham person either).
** All the different Xmas movies get all jumbled up in my head, so we'll assume it's Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.
*** It's also Liz's birthday, if you were wondering. And Samuel L. Jackson's! And somebody named "Ha Ha Davis" who got listed before Frank Zappa on that website that I used to look up famous peoples' birthdays, which is... something.
**** This is actually unrelated to how much alcohol he's had. It just kind of... happens? I dunno.
