Happy #NewBrewThursday from us at Beer Bazaar! We asked AI to turn us into pirates but it gave us facial reconstruction surgery as well. Sean and Nader would like to remind you to join us for our Pirates of the Bazaar Shanty Shipwreck Show on Friday, the 19th @ 8 PM for Talk Like a Pirate Day! Get your tickets for this fun event at our online shop.
