Beerds: Moustache Lounge at Atlantic City Beer Fest

I can safely say, being fresh from the Craft Brewers Conference and having attended a bevy of festivals, beer geeks are a hairy people. You could easily call any beer festival a “beard lounge”. But the fine folks at the Atlantic City Beer Festival have zeroed in on just the moustachioed fellows this weekend by creating a “Mustache Lounge”.

I don’t agree with the spelling but I love the idea.

And I can’t help but think of beer gardens at regular ol’ street festivals. Only with a bunch of dudes quarantined like bearded veal. Perhaps the next fest you attend will have a Goatee Garden? Soul Patch Paddock? Or Sideburn Stage?

If anyone’s going, please send me pics. And if you need conversation fodder, here’s some of my favorite Hairy Beerd Labels. Talk amongst your ‘stachy selves.

One Hot Tranny Mobile

Just in case your VW Bug thinks it’s a guy (it’s not). Or your giant pickup just isn’t quite sure which way it swings. There’s CarStache, CarLashes, and Truck Balls to set the record straight. Phew. (Thanks, Nicole)

Crafty: Moustache Crayons

Red, Brown, Yellow? Shouldn’t those be Ginger, Auburn, and Spencer-Spratt-Flesh-Beard-Colored Blonde?

Either way, My Friend Emily Mustache Crayons are rad and on sale in the Boing Boing Bazaar Makers Market.

I wonder if it’s the same mold Melissa used to make the Petaluma Whiskerino Moustache Pops? Hmm …
