Dress like a pirate (or wear a kilt), get a pint glass!
“The Pirate’s Christmas.” That’s the name of this piece of art. And it’s called that because these pirates are in stocks at Christmastime. It’s really pretty sad, especially if you love pirates.
Fortunately, Pirates aren’t usually oppressed around Halloween. And in honor of Halloween, we’re giving away a free pint glass to anyone who dresses like a pirate (or wears a kilt) to our Hop City beer tasting at Octane Coffee tomorrow, October 26, between 5:30-7pm.
What’s that you say?
Why pirates? And kilts? Can’t I dress like a slutty cop or Pocahontas instead? I already had my outfit all picked out… It’s the same outfit I’ve been wearing for years. For old times’ sake?
No. Because we make only two beers at the moment, Eye Patch Ale (pirates) and Drafty Kilt Scotch Ale (dudes wearing kilts). Pocahontas was cool 10 years ago. Pirates are perpetually cool. Consider this a wake-up call. And see you there!
Oh – free beer, no matter what you’re wearing!

The Second Greatest Pumpkin
The title of Great Pumpkin was claimed years ago, and we have to respect that. But the title of Second Greatest Pumpkin is still available to our knowledge. We would like to bestow this title on this pumpkin, carved by Jonathan Tubbs.
Nothing says Friday like a passive-aggressive plea
Am I right?!
If one is already “drunk,” would one have the wherewithal to a) comprehend this note; and b) care? Compliments of one of the best websites of all time. While we do not advocate “boozing it up,” especially on the weekends, we do hope that your night includes a pint of Monday Night and an outdoor patio. Cherish this weather, Atlantans.
Cherish it.
Mini taps for bartenders with tiny hands
We at Monday Night are nothing if not compassionate. And we’ve listened to the whimpers from bartenders asking us for smaller versions of our tap handles. They claim it’s so that our tap handles can fit in their space-constrained line-ups. But we know the real reason.
Some bartenders have tiny hands. Well, my ergonomically challenged friends, these 6.5″ bad boys are for you.
We’re still in the design phase, so it will be awhile until we see these in market. Until then, help your local tiny-handed bartender out. Offer to pour your own beer.
Show a little compassion.
Trade Show ready
Our new banner came in the mail. We realize this is not very important or interesting. Which is why we dedicate an ENTIRE POST to it. Look out trade shows, here we come. Or beer festivals. Whatever. Where there is a need for a banner, THERE IS A BANNER!!!!
Taking pictures of beer
This weekend I borrowed some photo equipment to take some delicious-looking product shots of our beer. So now I have to figure out how to use this stuff. Hopefully I can finagle a few shots that look as good as the beer tastes.
I guess my Nikon COOLPIX isn’t going to cut it? But Ashton Kutcher is the spokesman! ASHTON, YOU’VE RUINED ME!!!
The Alabama legislature’s adventures in homebrewing
Just listen to some of this stuff. Two of my favorite quotes, from Alvin Holmes hisself.
Man you gon’ turn everybody into wino!
When I have cocktails, I drank Chivas Regal!
Thanks to Simon for sending it over to us.
