Shaving Day Extravaganza!

Well folks, like when we were all just young children dreaming of the day we would be blessed with a fine stache and it felt like the day would never come, so has it been with Shaving Day.  But, like That Fateful Day when you looked in the mirror and saw those first few whiskers, the long awaited time has crept up on us with ninja-ish sneakiness.  In a mere 23 hours we will mark Detroit’s first ever Mustaches for Kids growing season with a party filled (we hope) with hairless faces newly started on their journey toward that mythical state known as “Mustachioed”.  Please help us realize our dreams of a crowd of valiant men helping children though the awesome  power of their facial hair by coming to Jacoby’s to throw your stache in the ring, or even just to lend moral (and monetary) support.

Remember, it’s called Shaving Day for a reason- if you want to grow with us please show up clean shaven so we can take pictures of your lovely, boyish faces for the internet.  We may have professionals on hand to assist with the razoring, but so far it’s only an unsubstantiated rumor.  If that rumor is confirmed, we will let you know on this site before the event tomorrow night.  And to assist you in your efforts to spread the stache love far and wide, we will have beautifully crafted buttons available for growers and supporters alike.  The growers get them for free and supporters pay the low, low cost of $.50.  These buttons are designed by the very talented Ray Schelhas, so you can thank him for all his hard work- you’ll know who he is because he looks like a dark haired version of this guy.

We’ll keep you updated with any late breaking developments right here, so stay tuned and keep stachey!

Black Lotus Malty, Hoppy Goodness Saves the Day

Our informational meeting at Black Lotus Brewery last Thursday was a resounding success.  And by resounding success I mean that one grower came, one possible grower’s girlfriend showed up, Jay talked to everyone in the bar (twice) and Meghan drank beers.  However, our mustachioed message was heard by many and hopefully some of them are here checking us out.  We aren’t taking the low turn out too hard though; we’re assuming that it’s a result of everyone being too well informed.

Those of you that couldn’t make it don’t know what you missed, the beer really is great.  I reccomend getting there for the birthday brew before it’s gone.
