So Free Rangers, Yelp used to be the bane of our existence, generally siding with faceless strangers, and their often baseless lies, over hardworking small business owners and operators, by design. But nobody really uses that godawful site anymore, and Google has...

Hola Free Rangers, The dog days are upon us, and there is no end in sight. Dog days are defined here in Brooklyn as days that are so hot that our neighborhood doggie friends, immediately upon entry, flop down on the floor, where the temperature is lowest, and the cool...

Well Free Rangers, At this point, I’m surprised that I’m surprised. Our in-store tasting program has become a bottom shelf experience. We apologize for this sorry state of affairs, and have taken direct action to remedy the situation. And by bottom shelf, we don’t...

Hello Free Rangers, Another late note this week, after a rare week without e-mail, in-store tasting, or online sale at all. Sorry about that. Derek and Wesley were both out of town since we last spoke, and too many subterranean homesick hours amidst a serious...

Hello Free Rangers, Behind schedule. Behind the eight ball. Behind the times. Through the looking glass. Beyond the point of no return. An analog gear in a digital machine. Yet over the river and through the woods we go. What else is there to do? Getting by is still...

So Free Rangers, We need to talk. Please stop forwarding these e-mails to your friends without the caveat that they actually need to read them- and join the list themselves- to enjoy our rarest items at the best prices. Because some of your friends are coming in being...

Hey Free Rangers, Apologies for a second e-mail this week, so straight to the business of it! Today, Saturday, is our release party and tasting for our latest exclusive Kings Co release! Our dear friend, Gaby, will be here in the shop pouring FREE tastes of our fresh...
