BigStar

Hello again folks, sorry for the lack of updates, we’re trying to overhaul our site to make it more fun for you to read and pay attention to. Bear with us. In the meantime, we have some new food items, a whole new beer list, our own barrel of Elijah Craig 12 Year and a few new house barrels of whiskey coming in soon. Keep checking us on Facebook and Twitter, and we’ll have much more for you soon (monthly traditional country night, monthly parties with 3 Floyds, a few more small run t-shirts, etc).

Hey folks, we are going to be open all day on the 31st! We will have limited seating available on New Year’s Eve night on a first come first serve basis. Please come ring in the new year with a shot and a beer at Big Star!!

Big Star will be closed for a private event on the afternoon of December 8th. We will reopen at 4:30pm. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours from all of us here at Big Star. We’ll re-open on Friday the 25th, with some exciting surprises between now and the end of the year! Stay tuned!

Folks, the beer list is spanking new! Lagunitas is back in a major way: on draft Little Sumpin Sumpin is up now, and we’ll soon have a wet-hopped take on New Dogtown and what promises to be their coolest offering in some time for us! Fusion 7 … plenty of it. Wonder what Censored would taste like with hops galore? Wonder no more. Bottles: Green Flash Belgian IPA, barrel-aged stout from Port Brewing — check and check. Racer 5 IPA is here to stay for a bit. Winter Solstice from Anderson Valley is in. As is Anchor Christmas 2011. Both are seasonal greats. Come on in. You won’t be sorry. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TIZmP2-LI0&feature=related

Folks, we are celebrating TWO YEARS of existence this Wednesday! Two years, two dollar shots, two dollar beers, a two dollar taco…plus our buddies from Three Floyds are coming out to take over all our tap lines with some RARE and amazing beers. Local legend Tony Fitzpatrick did a t-shirt for us that we’ll up for that night only, special guest DJs, etc. Come hang with us!

Folks, on draft Monday Nov. 7th only, one 1/6 barrel of Half Acre’s very delicious new pale ale, Tasty Waves. Citra hopped and sessionable as all get out. This one will go live late afternoon. Half Acre is sponsoring a show at Reggie’s, at which a few of our own are rocking. So we thought we’d get this special beer up! “All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz, and I’m fine.”

In our perpetual search for new vinyl to play, we often chance upon some duds. Those belong in the 50 cents bin with the dust and cobwebs. But often, you strike, and it’s gold. Jukin Bone had a short career steeped in obscurity, but they made two killer records looooaded with the boogie. And two drummers! Check it out.
