The Leaves Are Turning

DUKE CANNON ON FINDING THE BEST FALL COLORS

As temperatures drop, it is natural for the role of the outdoor grill to recede in your day-to-day life. As depressing as this is, console yourself knowing the ever-trustworthy Crock-Pot (aka “slow cooker," depending on where you reside) is there to take up the slack. But this plugged-in wonder does more than just create hearty-yet-easy-to-prepare meals. Whether it’s stews, roasts, chilis or soups, this ceramic godsend also offers an inspiring palette of colors. Meats go from red to brown, water becomes rich gravy, and carrots take on subtle, darker hues; it is truly spectacular.

To be sure, a pint glass is a delivery vehicle for mouth-watering adult beverages. But it is also something more: a see-through canvas that features a kaleidoscope of color to dazzle the eye well as the taste buds. Whether it is the golden hues of lagers and ales, or the deep, dark browns of stouts and IPAs, your pint glass really knows how to put in show when fall rolls around.

Open your closet or dresser drawer and prepare to be dazzled. White socks transition to wool socks woven in subtle brows and grays. A deep row of flannel shirts offers an explosion of colorful, fall-inspired patterns. And white sneakers make way for well-seasoned leather boots that boast the rich patina of a well-seasoned horse’s saddle.

As the weather turns, you may well find yourself struck by the urge to transition from an orange-tinted, tropical-scented Big Ass Brick of Bay Rum Soap to something more autumnally appropriate—say for instance, the more earthy, cedarwood-scented Sawtooth Big Ass Brick of Soap. This is natural and you should go with it, as this is a case where changes in fall color will reward not only the eyes, but also the nose.

Yes, we did—because few things fit the bill for a hard-working fellow in search of a fall-appropriate aroma like our popular SAWTOOTH scent. Smelling of alpine air and cedarwood, Sawtooth is available as THICK High-Viscosity Body Wash, a Big Ass Brick of Soap, a proper cologne, and in our 2-in-1 Hair Wash. Grab some today, and prepare to feel like you are showering at 11,000 feet.
