(Well, not really — they’re all setting up for the Belgian Beer Fest tomorrow.)

Founder's Imperial Stout

Founder's Imperial Stout

Yep, a lovely Founder’s Imperial Stout.

Now that I’m finished with the workday, I can sit back, enjoy this and think about something ambitious…

You know, like invading Poland on horseback.

Share your beer pix live with us this Memorial Day weekend!

Share your beer pix live with us this Memorial Day weekend!

It’s Memorial Day weekend, the un-official beginning of summer and the official beginning of beer drinking season (which around here happens to end the day before Memorial Day weekend begins.)

Being who we are, we naturally like to celebrate the season with (what else) Beer and pictures!

But this time around we thought we’d do something cool and invite the entire world (well the countless dozens of you who read this anyway) to share their own beer photos with us via mybeerpix.com’s live photo blogging feature.

All this weekend you’ll be able to post your photos and comments directly to our website via your mobile phone, computer, camera, or whatever else you use to connect to the interwebs. Here’s how:

How to post via email or your phone’s MMS

To post a photo to the website from your computer or your mobile phone’s camera, simply send your beer photo to:

    mybeer@mybeerpix.com

Make sure to include a subject (i.e., “Beer photo from Moosedrool, Wisconsin”) that gives viewers a little info about the photo.

If you’d like to include text (beyond the subject) along with your photo you’ll need to enclose it in the “#” sign like this:

#Hello mybeerpix readers! I’m Larry and this is my buddy Moe. We are enjoying a pint of Moosedrool IPA at the pub. Cheers!#

(If you don’t use the “#” sign to enclose the message, the server will strip out the text.)

That’s it! You can post from any email program, or if you’re one of the cool kids like me and have a cameraphone, you can post directly from your mobile phone.

Every 15 minutes or so our web server will check for new photos, automatically resize them and post. (So if you don’t see your photo right away, wait a few minutes, the server is probably between check cycles.)

How to post via Twitter

Just send your pic to Twitter the way you normally do (e.g., via twitpic, ping.fm, etc. etc.) and include the keyword “#mybeerpix”.

Our server will pick up your tweet from Twitter and display it on the Twitter Feed page here. (You’ll also find a link to the page at the top of the website.)

That’s pretty much it. Now get out there and have a beer and show us what you’re drinking!

Caveats and (not very limiting) limitations:

1) Please keep the photos beer-related. They can be of just beer, people with beer, at beer places, events, beer signage, etc. — it simply needs to somehow relate to beer. This is after all “my beer pix” not “my day at the zoo pix”.

2) Please keep your photos (and language) to PG-13. A little racy is fine and fun, but our 15 year-old daughter sees this and we don’t want to have to explain anything. (If you’ve got anything beyond PG-13, feel free to email them to us privately. :D )

3) Make sure they’re your photos. Posting other’s pictures can be a big legal mess that we don’t want to deal with.

Ok, that’s it! Now go out there and show us what you and your beer are doing this weekend!

Sierra Nevada Porter


My van is getting new tires, so I’m killing a couple hours @ Fenway Sports Bar & Grill with my phone, a Sierra Nevada porter and some Euro-soccer.

 

Update: Fenway in Carlsbad, CA. Not Mass. Sorry Boston friends, I’m not sneaking around without you.

Matt and Kevin (I like to call him Todd — ask him why) are over at Churchill’s getting ready to drink some Lost Abbey beers. They asked us to join them, but it’s Christmas Eve and we’re home with the kids so they’ll just have to make due without us.

So why not support both with a fund raiser we’re doing at Port Brewing and The Lost Abbey this Friday, October 3rd?

From 4pm to 8pm we’ll be hosting a “Beer for Boobs” event with all the proceeds going to support the Susan G Komen breast cancer research foundation. For only $10 you’ll get an ultra-cool Beer for Boobs pint glass and two pints of delicious Port / Lost Abbey brews to fill it… oh, and the knowledge that in doing so you have supported healthy breasts and women everywhere.

For those who don’t know, Beer for Boobs is a project of the girls at White Labs (of yeast ranching fame), who all are planning to do the 3 Day Walk for a Cure in November.

I think this is a really cool thing to support so I and my girlfriends will be there (with our breasts), and so should you!

The Lost Abbey Website has all the details right here.
