Say cheese...

CrossFit brewmasters
...it goes well with beer. Our in-house brewmasters and team-deadlifters, Sean and Brock, will be bringing a few different batches of homebrew (including the highly anticipated Overhead Pale Ale) Friday evening for all of us to sample and enjoy. Join us for the evening: we will have BBQs roaring. Bring your own meat to grill, and, if you so desire, veggies and/or side dishes to share.

Mark Rippetoe and Lon Kilgore, authors of the brand-new edition of their unparalleled weightlifting text "Starting Strength: Basic Barbell Training," will be here from Texas and looking forward to meeting y'all, so come by and say hello. Bring your friends and family and come hang out for the evening. We'll get going just after the 6:00-7:00 workout--so, starting about 7:15--this Friday evening, October 26.

Basic Barbell Training book
We'll also have hot-off-the-press copies of the new book here for you to peruse.

Here's a small preview of the labels that we've worked up for the beers we'll be featuring:

Overhead Pale Ale
Halfwit Belgian Wit
Past Parallel Porter
Bent Bar Imperial Stout
Dead Weight Dunkelweizen
YBF Special Bitter

The first three are mine, the last three are Sean's.

So I tried to ask the question about any last minute cancellations/newly opened vacancies (for this weekend's barbell certification) to the fine folks at customerservice@crossfit.com but got nada in response (transmitted similar msgs twice 2 days ago- no reply). Since you don't have a phone# to be found anywhere I'm trying my last effort here on your msg board. I'm a mil member here in the area & I'd like to attend if possible. Thanks.

Dig the microbrew tags by the way...

BisCuit,

I checked with the HQ folks, and it is totally oversold, with a waiting list. So sorry. (There will be another one here February 16-17, if there's any chance you can make it to that one.)

I would respond directly in e-mail if I had your address. You can e-mail us at getfit_AT_crossfiteastside.com.

Very impressed with the book. Alot of information explained in a logical and digestable format.
