Halloween is just around the corner, and I’m sure everyone is starting to stress think about what they’re going to wear to that looming Halloween party. Well, your friends here at Alpine wouldn’t leave you in the lurch…we’re going to help you put together the best costume going this year. “But what’s that?” you might be wondering.

One word: Ed.

That’s right all you aspiring Eds, here’s all you need to put together a wicked Ed costume.

Plus – post your pictures to the official Alpine Lager Facebook page, and we’ll randomly pick the winner, who will receive a $100 gift certificate to the Moosehead Country Store!

Here’s what you’ll need:

1. Grab your most rugged pair of jeans and work boots. Here’s a hint: the older the work boots, the more authentically Ed.



2.Next you’ll need a navy blue work shirt. These can be hard to find, but Mark’s Work Warehouse or even Value Village could be your best bet. Don’t forget to roll up those sleeves.

3. Grab yourself a belt with a great belt buckle. The bigger, the better!

4.  The next KEY part – is to sport an Alpine baseball cap. Ed would never leave home without it. (You can get them at the Moosehead Country Store, btw)

4, From there – it’s all about the facial hair. Whatever you need to do – get yourself some whiskers. It’s the icing on the cake. Here’s a refresher – the decision of ‘stache v. goatee is up to you.

Upload those pictures to Facebook – and we’ll do a random draw for the winner just after Halloween. Have fun with it folks!

Cheers,

Kay

If you’re a music lover, keep your eyes on facebook.com/mooselight over the next few weeks.   Through our partnership with Universal Music, we’re offering loads of prizes, from signed t-shirts to concert DVDs to special edition vinyl of some of your favorite bands.

You may or may not know this about me, but I’m a music geek.  I spent about two hours this past weekend going through the archives of what’s available through the site at mooselight.ca/playlistproject.  You will not believe the back catalogs available!  Remember, every specially marked 12-pack bottle of Moose Light comes with four free downloads, plus an extra you can either keep or send to a friend.   What did I use my first few cases on?  The Hold Steady’s live album “A Positive Rage” and the deluxe edition of Florence + The Machine’s “Lungs”.  There’s something for everyone, from ABBA (15 albums!) to ZZ Top (two live albums!).  All the latest GaGa, J-Lo & Rihanna’s there too!

As a matter of fact, let’s start the prizes now.  First thing I’ve got is five copies of Sam Robert’s “Collider”.  You want a copy? Tell us your favorite Sam Roberts song on the Moose Light Facebook discussion page and I’ll draw five random winners on Friday!  Mine?  “Canadian Dream” from We Were Born in a Flame but that’s only because I’m a sucker for sing-a-longs.  Oh, you can also add your favorites as a comment below, or let us know through Twitter @moose_light with the hashtag #mooselightplaylist.

What are you waiting for?  Go win a CD & keep your eyes open through the month to win more cool stuff!

Cheers,
Ray
