Just an update to keep our loyal surfers hanging 10…

OK, so when you think about it, a menage a’ deux isn’t anything to shout from the rafters about… unless you’re talking about two great musical acts in one evening.

Holy aural stimulation, man!

On Saturday, August 18th, 49 Fingers and Made of Bullets will be gracing the corner of our pub - two for the price of one! (Which, by the way, is free!) Come early to get a seat and get your order in for the juiciest, tastiest burgers in town!

Just Nagging…

A reminder about our new times and days for selling kegs and cornies out the door. Starting September 4th, we will be limiting the sale of these items so they don’t interfere with providing our golden (and red, and black, and amber) ambrosia to our other good-natured, beer-fearing folk. The new times:

• Tuesday 4-6pm
• Friday 4-6pm
• Saturday 10-noon

We also are limiting the times that we will fill cornies. Starting on the 4th, we will no longer fill cornies between the hours of 11:30 and 2pm or between 5-7pm on any day. Please come in to have them filled before or after those times.

Heads Up!

The ‘Pooia will be closed on Monday August 20th so we can treat our crew to a fun-filled day. Please come see us when we open on Tuesday at 11:30.

B-dee, b-dee, b-dee, tha’s all, folks!

Brewing the finest microbrews in Oregon & the Willamette Valley!

Hey Y’all! Sorry about the cavernous gap in web updates… let’s just call it a summer-time slump!

So what’s up, what’s going on, what’s shakin’?

Well for starters, we are very excited to have Corvallis trio Walk the Plank as our live musical guests on Saturday August 11th. We caught them at Sahalie last month, and it was an amazing show! They should take the corner (we don’t have a stage!) at around 8pm. There’s no cover charge, so there’s no excuse not to check out this show!

What else? Oh yeah, we took 12 kegs of our Yankee Clipper IPA up to P-Town for the 2007 Oregon Brewers Festival. If you managed to catch Mark & Laura hamming-it-up for OPB or the Channel 2 (KATU) news, please let us know how it looked - we missed it!

And we made a very wise, very strategic decision to hire a full-time bar manager. Paul Huppert (that’s pronounced “hoop-aire”) will be coming on board Mid-August to help us guide the ‘Pooia towards the next stage in its metamorphosis. He comes to us from Iovino’s in Corvallis and will be a talented and enthusiastic addition to our Brew Crew.

Speaking of Mid-August, the ‘Pooia will be closed on Monday, August 20th so that we can gather our crew together for our company party. We will re-open at 11:30 on Tuesday the 21st.

Oops, and one more big change… due to increased pub business, we are limiting the times and days that we sell kegs and fill corny kegs. Starting September 4th, kegs will now be sold at the side door (Water Ave. door) during these times ONLY:

• Tuesday 4-6pm
• Friday 4-6pm
• Saturday 10-noon

We also are limiting the times that we will fill cornies. Starting on the 4th, we will no longer fill cornies between the hours of 11:30 and 2pm or between 5-7pm on any day. If you’ve ever been thirsty, sitting at our bar after a long-day’s work, waiting while one of our beer goddesses helps to fill out an OLCC app and rolls out a 160 pound keg on a squeaky hand truck, you’ll immediately understand (and appreciate!) why we’re making these changes! We apologize for any inconvenience….

Later, Taters!
