This Saturday, September 6th is our 4 Year Anniversary for this here Beer Jalopy we call home. It's been 10 years for the business as a whole and, truthfully, it's about 17 years since we first started (poorly) planing this thing.

I'm not sure Time means much of anything anymore post-COVID. We don't seem to process it the same way. It doesn't seem to behave the same way. So, I'm not even really sure what we are celebrating here. Survival, maybe?

But, regardless, we will celebrate. Who needs a sane or reasonable reason to celebrate anyway?

We'll have live on-site tattooing starting right at 2pm from Angel Silva. This is first come, first served, so, if this is something you want to do, get here early and post up.

The DUNK TANK will be back in action once again. You can start missing all the shots you do take around 3pm.

There will be food and, of course, beer. We'll have some barrel-aged stuff we've been sitting on on tap at some point.

After the sun goes down we've got a free live show featuring TIJUANA HERCULES, NONAGON & SHARILLA.

Speaking of free, live shows, we've got a show on Friday as well:

Come hang with us all weekend starting on Thursday. In fact, just bring your sleeping bags and never leave. It's blissssssss.
