Today I opened my mailbox to a note from a Monday Night Brewery faithful in Washington, D.C.:
3 J’s:
I have attached what I consider to be Monday Night Brewery Pint Glass Pornography. This is not safe for work!
What you see is an MNB Pint Glass fully supplied with Troegs’ Nugget Nectar Imperial Amber. While I’d love [...]

I would like to announce that the days of being the relatively unknown underdog are over. We are now famous. This has been our secret goal since the beginning, and since we have fulfilled it, we can finally disband. Just kidding, we’re still starting a brewery.

We should have stout, IPA and Drafty Kilt on tap as well. And [...]
