Coffee Contest Winner

Coffee Contest Winner
We have a winner in the Bull Run Roasting Coffee Contest. His name is Kevin Forza and he treated us to a bit of poetry:

THE BALLAD OF A LONELY TOOLBAG

She was drinking Magnificent Bastards.
I was getting amazingly plastered.
    Rocking Tommy Bahama,
    I'm like, "Yo, babymama!"
(There are rules I still haven't mastered.)

Congratulations to Kevin. For writing poetry that maybe took 10 minutes he's won a year's supply of Magnificent Bastard "Morning After" Roast, two cool coffee mugs, and a Hario grinder. Enjoy, Kevin. We like your sense of humor and we sure hope you're kidding about rocking Tommy Bahama.

Win a Year's Supply of MB Morning After Coffee

We can't send you the girl. She's too big to ship, plus she has to be at least 90 years old by now, so she's probably so brittle she'd arrive in pieces. However, we can send you 36 lbs. of free coffee. All you've got to do is write a few words about the MB Cocktail. Click here for complete details.
