Oh hi! How are you? We're great, thanks for asking! And the reason we're great is that we've got a whole shitload (possibly even two shitloads) of cool stuff lined up for you this week, so let's get to it!
And first on up as always is cask! This one's a cask that we* have been eagerly awaiting and that's We're All Doomed! This simple lil' mild belies a whole mess of deliciousness and this is a style that Truly Shines when it's on cask so we're downright stoked as hell to try some on Thursday** and you should come have some with us!
And speaking of beer, we've got beer to release! More to the point we've got a brand-spankin'-new beer that's not only a new band collab (with xXXXx, and we'll be doing a release shindig for it but we'll get to that in a minute) but also it's a style we've never brewed before! The beer is called Believe In Yourself and that's honestly a really appropriate name on account of how it's a Black IPA that clocks in at more of a "moderately dark brown" (it's our first try, give us a break) but more importantly it's hella fruity and super tasty and it's available in cans starting on Saturday and you should come have some!
And then gettin' on into the fun events what we've got in store for you, the weekend kicks off Wednesday (i.e. tonight) with a terrarium workshop! I don't have much to say about this except to point out that it's an unexpectedly zen experience to create a jar full of garden, and I recommend you check it out!
Then on Thursday we've got Left Couch Comedy back in the house for our monthly comedy night! And as a little "added bonus" (or not, depending on whether or not you like to listen to comedy on what appears to be the set of a horror movie) we've managed to "spruce up" the side room since the last comedy night and now there's curtains in front of all that plastic sheeting that we're using as a wall (which has been described, repeatedly, as "a little murdery") so if you wanna get your giggle on in a room that's mostly made out of curtains, come join us!
And then on Friday we're kickin' off a music-focused weekend*** with a solo show by Jim Healey! And while we're generally opposed to the "one guy with an acoustic guitar" style of live music, we caught Jim's set a little ways back and we really dug it, and we think you will too!
Then on Saturday we're kickin' off the day early (at 10:30 AM) with Emo Yoga hosted by Crystal and then a little later in the afternoon we've got new-to-us Code 1 BBQ poppin' up, and then a little later in the day (but still overlapping with the popup) we've got a show to coincide with the release of Believe In Yourself! We'll be hearing a set from xXXXx**** because they're the inspiration behind the collab beer (and who will also be bringin' some sweet limited-release collab t shirts) and they're gonna be joined by Last Sight and Rival Society and it's pretty much gonna be fun as hell so you might as well come rock out with us!
And movin' on to the murky waters of The Future, we've got some cool stuff lined up for you next week too! Next Thursday we've got Audio Triviality back in the house for Nirvana vs. Foo Fighters Trivia and then we're bringin' back the back-to-back music next week too, with T. Bloodhound next Friday and then GARF next Saturday. And what is GARF, you ask? Why it's none other than the release party for this year's Pride beer (and also the sick Pride shirts that we got featuring the can art for said beer) and also it's a Gay Ass Rock Fest, complete with a whole mess o' bands and vendors (focusing specifically on queer musicians/makers)! We've got tunes from Tears From A Grieving Heart and Phagocyte and SINK and Throw and K.O. Queen plus Creeping Death Designs and Straps N Slaps Leather and Feral Fetish will be settin' up shop out in the beer garden and the whole show is a benefit for BAGLY (a Boston-based, youth-led organization supporting and advocating for LGBQT+ programs in the community) and anyway it's gonna be fun as hell and also it's supporting a good cause and you should come hang with us!

** Since this beer was made to be served at Boston is Doomed, we'll also have a cask of it tapped on that weekend. We tried to fill more than two casks of it but Liz wouldn't let us.
*** It has come to our attention that there's some sort of local music festival this weekend, but we still want to see all these cool artists and anyway the beer's much better here.
**** It's pronounced "x triple-x x" if you were wondering. Not the easiest band in the world to google, as I've mentioned before.
