Episode 44 – Name.com kegerator is born!

ashley — Fri, 24 Jun 2011 23:24:12 +0000

As most births do, it all started out with a little bit of fun. It then culminated into, quite possibly, one of the most beautiful things the Name.com dev department has ever created. Luckily we are almost as good with power tools as we are with programming. So, with a hole drilled here and an edge dremeled off there, we quickly transformed our mini fridge into the full time nectar of the gods dispensing apparatus it was destined to be. Once we filled the keg with Brew Master Smitty’s golden gift of love and watched it flow gloriously from the tap, we knew our Friday evenings would never be the same and that our once meager lives had truly been blessed. We hope you enjoy the time lapsed video of our creation making as much we enjoyed building it. Until next time, I leave you with this question: is one beer in the mouth better than two in the hands?

As we start to recreate our ‘about us’ page, we decided to ask around the office for interesting facts about Namers we may not have known. Check out the vid and tell us something weird about you!

Episode 40 – O’doul’s taste test

This week we decided to do a taste test to see how keen everyone’s taste buds really are. Turns out everyone has pretty well seasoned buds! We asked people to taste two samples and tell us which one they liked better and also which one had alcohol. Apparently our test wasn’t too tough, check out the results.

Beer Fridays episode 38- Smitty Home brew!

ashley — Fri, 25 Mar 2011 23:31:25 +0000

Super exciting; this week’s beer Friday tasting was provided by one of our ninja developers, Jason Smith, A.K.A Smitty. The Smitty Brew is an imperial blonde ale that passed the test with flying colors. The whole process took him about 3 weeks but my, oh my was it worth the wait. I felt honored to be able to sneak a sample, I sure do work with some of the coolest guys around.

The Smitty Brew does not have an official name, any suggestions?

Kickin' it in the kitchen, Friday afternoon

Beer Friday -Episode 38 Natty Light?

ashley — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 19:00:53 +0000

We had a delicious Scottish beer in the fridge lined up for a Beer Fridays tasting but then when the time came it had mysteriously vanished? Yes that’s right, there is a Name.com beer burglar! Weirder yet, Monday morning rolls around and there is a case of Natty Light that had replaced the much talked about vanished Scottish brew. Fast forward to Friday afternoon and it was like pulling teeth trying to line up some volunteers to taste the Natty (See video).

By the time everyone was leaving the office late Friday however, the recycle bin was full and the Natty was gone. Apparently no one around here likes to admit they drink Natty light! Anyway, cheers from the Name team, enjoy your weekend! We’re going to make up with this week’s Natty Light next week with a special home brew! Stay tuned.
