Day 10 - Lil' cute, lil' spooky

How cute are these pins, y'all? Our good pals, Brian & Sara, at Cricket Press designed these awesome enamel pins just for our advent box this year! Did you know that Cricket Press has a studio in our Bread Box building at 501 West Sixth Street, and that they have helped design our can logos & more for years? We love working with these awesome humans, & we hope you wear these pins with pride.

Today's slot also contains a super cool beer - Castlewood IPA! Named after our local Castlewood Park in Lexington, KY -- where you can find the Loudon House, home of the Lexington Art League. We felt this beer would be appropriate to pair with your new Cricket Press swag, due to its artistic namesake. Castlewood is a Cascadian Dark Ale, more commonly known as a Black IPA, and has a dark and complex malt character balanced by aggressive citrus and spicy hop flavors. Castlewood is then aged on oak to make a smooth drinking beer. Typically, we release this beer for spooky season (I mean, just look at the label), but we added it to our advent box as a special, spooky, spicy treat! Chill it up & enjoy your Castlewood Black IPA!
