This just in from CBX!
Greetings!
We have a couple of stellar back to back events this week! Check it out:
Bear Republic "Rare Beer Tuesday" (10/27)
As we do every Tuesday at 5pm, we'll tapping an even-more-extra-special than usual keg on the growler station for growler fills! Our feature(s) this week will be not one but three very sought after beers from Bear Republic Brewing Co. out of Healdsburg, California! We're bringing back the elusive Racer X Double IPA, along with an even rarer Imperial IPA called Mach 10 which the brewery calls "one of our most assertive and extreme"! On top of both of these incredible IPAs, we'll also be tapping their Late Harvest, a special Oktoberfest style lager that has never before been seen in the state! This is sure to be a spectacular trio of Bear Republic! Free Bear Republic coasters will be available while supplies last.
Adam Avery of Avery Brewing Co. at CBX Wednesday (10/28)
Please join us Wednesday from 4 to 6pm for a special meet-n-greet with Adam Avery, President/Brewmaster of Avery Brew Company out of Boulder, Colorado! Adam will be here with some of his most limited, rarest beers including wild, sour, bourbon barrel aged and extreme strong ales for a once-in-a-lifetime chance to get these gems! He'll be signing bottles/growlers, giving away Avery stickers/swag and talking about his work so be sure to come down and say hi! More details to come on the specific beers but trust us, you don't want to miss them!
Cheers,

Dear Tenant…
23Oct09
Date: Thursday 21 May 2009 10.16am
To: Helen Bailey
Subject: Pets in the building Dear Helen,
Thankyou for your letter concerning pets in my apartment. I understand that having dogs in the apartment is a violation of the agreement due to the comfort and wellbeing of my neighbours and I am currently soundproofing my apartment with egg cartons as I realise my dogs can cause quite a bit of noise. Especially during feeding time when I release live rabbits.
Regards, David. From: Helen Bailey

To: David Thorne
Subject: Re: Pets in the building Hello David
I have received your email and wish to remind you that the strata agreement states that no animals are allowed in the building regardless of if your apartment is soundproof. How many dogs do you have at the premises?

Subject: Re: Re: Pets in the building Dear Helen,
Currently I only have eight dogs but one is expecting puppies and I am very excited by this. I am hoping for a litter of at least ten as this is the number required to participate in dog sled racing. I have read every Jack London novel in preparation and have constructed my own sled from timber I borrowed from the construction site across the road during the night. I have devised a plan which I feel will ensure me taking first place in the next national dog sled championships. For the first year of the puppies life I intend to say the word mush then chase them violently around the apartment while yelling and hitting saucepan lids together. I have estimated that the soundproofing of my apartment should block out at least sixty percent of the noise and the dogs will learn to associate the word mush with great fear so when I yell it on race day, the panic and released adrenaline will spur them on to being winners. I am so confident of this being a foolproof plan that I intend to sell all my furniture the day before the race and bet the proceeds on coming first place.
Regards, David. From: Helen Bailey

Subject: Re: Re: Re: Pets in the building David, I am unsure what to make of your email. Do you have pets in the apartment or not?

Subject: Re: Re: Re: Re: Pets in the building Dear Helen,
No. I have a goldfish but due to the air conditioner in my apartment being stuck on a constant two degrees celcius, the water in its bowl is iced over and he has not moved for a while so I do not think he is capable of disturbing the neighbours. The ducks in the bathroom are not mine. The noise which my neighbours possibly mistook for a dog in the apartment is just the looping tape I have of dogs barking which I play at high volume while I am at work to deter potential burglars from breaking in and stealing my tupperware. I need it to keep food fresh. Once I ate leftover chinese that had been kept in an unsealed container and I experienced complete awareness. The next night I tried eating it again but only experienced chest pains and diarrhoea.
Regards, David. From: Helen Bailey

To: David Thorne
Subject: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Pets in the building Hello David
You cannot play sounds of dogs or any noise at a volume that disturbs others. I am sure you can appreciate that these rules are for the benefit of all residents of the building. Fish are fine. You cannot have ducks in the apartment though. If it was small birds that would be ok.

Subject: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Pets in the building Dear Helen,
They are very small ducks.
Regards, David. From: Helen Bailey
Date: Friday 22 May 2009 4.06pm
To: David Thorne
Subject: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Pets in the building David, under section 4 of the strata residency agreement it states that you cannot have pets. You agreed to these rules when you signed the forms. These rules are set out to benefit everyone in the building including yourself. Do you have a telephone number I can call you on to discuss?
Helen From: David Thorne

To: Helen Bailey
Subject: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Pets in the building Dear Helen,
The ducks will no doubt be flying south for the winter soon so it will not be an issue. It is probably for the best as they are not getting along very well with my seventeen cats anyway. .
Regards, David. From: Helen Bailey

To: David Thorne
Subject: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Pets in the building David, I am just going to write on the forms that we have investigated and you do not have any pets.

I’ve seen people matching their outfits with their Jordans . This is the first time
I’ve seen the kicks match the Nascar jacket; and he obviously wants everyone
to see his shoes!

He is wearing… a trash bag… as a skirt. I can’t even fathom
He is wearing… a trash bag… as a skirt. I can’t even fathom
a reason why! – “Well maybe it was some sort of an emergency.â€
Who knows what he is going to use the Tupperware for.
California
Its not her fault; that guy’s fabulous rat tail makes all the girls pull their skirts up.
Utah
Got 4 to 1 odds saying she smelled her hand after she pulled it back out.
Oregon
He is like a parachute slowing down that drag-racer!!
Seriously, pick the kid up or buy him the candy bar he wants.
I’m not sure what point you are trying to make by dragging
him across the floor of a Walmart.
Georgia
Oh, It’s like a garbage bag filled with creamed corn.
California
C’mon now. This brings a whole new meaning to the term ‘half-assed’.
Texas
This is either the ugliest woman ever,
the worst cross-dresser ever, or a guy
that is really bad at choosing gender
appropriate clothes. Maybe it’s all three –
an ugly woman, cross-dressing as a man,
who can’t pick out manly clothes.
T exas
Well the bleach from earlier obviously didn’t do the trick because
I still see this…. I’m switching to Drano.
Utah
I guess he thought he could roll his underwear
over his pants and use them as a belt…didn’t work.
Texas
I know, I know…… I want to see his old man boobs in
that mesh tank-top as well. Looks like we gotta settle for t
he shorts crammed with Depends. Sorry to disappoint.
Florida
“What is Walmart gay?†– great question;
Walmart gay is extra flamboyant attire like this,
that is still rooted in Walmartness. For example,
tying your shirt up like so is very flamboyant,
however it is also flannel. Pink shorts – big belt buckle.
Big goofy hat – doesn”t match a thing I think you get the idea.
California
If you’re going to wear a nice summer skirt like this,
If you’re going to wear a nice summer skirt like this,
don’t ruin it with those boots mister, because that is just wrong!

Rare Beer Tuesday
20Oct09
Rare Beer Tuesday (10/20)
Please join us today (Tuesday, October 20th) from 4pm to 6pm for a very special “Rare Beer Tuesday” meet-n-greet with Brooklyn Brewery Brewmaster Garrett Oliver! For those who may not already know of Garrett, he is one of the most highly revered brewers, beer authors and beer judges in the world! Garrett will be here to talk about Brooklyn Brewery, and release the latest Brewmaster’s Reserve beer called Manhattan Project on the growler station (along with a vintage 2008 keg of Black Chocolate Stout). He’ll also be signing bottles/growlers as well as his book “The Brewmaster’s Table” which is the premiere resource on pairing fine food and beer. Copies of the book will be available in store. This book is a great resource for yourself or the ultimate gift for beer and food lovers alike! Come have one personalized by the author himself!
About Manhattan Project:
Inspired by the popular cocktail, Manhattan Project is “a robust rye beer, aged in Rittenhouse Rye Whiskey barrels and then infused with the herbs and spices that flavor red vermouth and bitters. Then a dash of tart cherry, and the result is the Manhattan Project”. This will be the only appearance of this beer in South Carolina. Growlers will be first come first serve. Please note the earlier than usual start time of 4pm. Growler fills of Manhattan Project are only $15 and will go fast so get on down!
