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.
The Monday Night Brewers take the field!
Softball is what makes Atlanta great. True, there are other things, like people and buildings and weather and craft beer. But softball tops the list. Which is why we are proud to announce the sponsorship of a new expansion Atlanta softball team, the Monday Night Brewers.
Last night marked our inaugural game. An historic moment for a city steeped in the love of the game. It went about as good as an inaugural game ever goes. We lost the battle, but that doesn’t mean we have lost the war. A quote from slugger Alfred after the game:
And speaking of “fan bases,” the Monday Night Brewers are actively recruiting fans. Be a part of this rags to riches story. Oh, I should probably see if there is a schedule or something that I can post online. I’ll get back to you on that.
Come on folks, we can fill those stands, right?! Think how epic this photograph would have been with full stands.
