There was a great response to this contest and guess what? I actually have 2 pairs of tickets to giveaway to the Stella Artois Legere Ultimate Block party this Saturday!

Here’s how I picked the winners:
- Each person that emailed or tweeted went onto a list in the order they came in and each entry was numbered starting at 1
- Then I used the Random.org number generator to pick my 2 winners.
AND THE WINNERS ARE….
and
Congratulations to you both!
***To confirm your prize please send me an email by 3:00pm today to carly[at]carlyanne[.]com to claim your tickets.

I cannot WAIT for this Saturday!
On Monday night I went to the preview of the new Beer Store in Liberty Village, the Beer Boutique. I think it’s a great idea for a beer store to be set up like this. I love to walk around a self-serve store to check out what’s new and different. I always feel rushed when I go to The Beer Store and have to choose what I want from a list on the wall.

I loved the layout of the store, open concept with exposed brick walls, heavy wooden tables, old beer barrels and a modern, rustic feel. Casie commented on how straight and lined up everything was (photo by her)

I went with Casie, Sabrina and Alex and ended up seeing a whole bunch of awesome people that I hadn’t seen in a while. We had a pretty fun time and got there early, before all the politicians (seriously!) and crowd arrived.
So good to see all you guys April, Raymi, Brock, Keri, Christine & Julie and Erin and we ate, drank and danced till 9pm. I love short events like this 6-9, in and out.

I also got to try Stella Artois Legere for the first time and I think it’s going to be my new summer beer.

Speaking of Stella Artois Légère, have you voted for your neighbourhood’s chance to host the Ultimate Block Party? go to facebook.com/STELLAARTOISCANADA, scroll down til you see VOTE and then vote for your neighbourhood (East End!!)
Thanks to the team at The Beer Store for the invite and I hope you bring a Beer Boutique to the Beach!
And thanks to CASIE for the photos. I forgot my camera so I stole them off her site
Guess what? I have been waiting to share the awesome news with you that I’ve been selected as one of the the Stella Artois Légère Social Media Neighbour’s for the Beach/Leslieville/Danforth area. There will be six sampling teams (wearing 1960s-inspired outfits and riding Stella Artois Légére-branded bicycles and Mini Coopers) who will be handing out complimentary samples throughout the cities neighborhoods from now until July 9.
But complimentary samples of Stella Artois Légére is not all… they’re giving YOU a chance to vote for your favourite neighborhood in Toronto (EAST SIDE) via the Stella Artois’ Facebook page The neighbourhood receiving the most votes gets to host an Ultimate Block Party for 200 people! Voting closes on July 10th, 2011.
If you live in the Beach/Leslieville/Danforth areas you already know that we live in the BEST neighborhood in the city so stay tuned to my blog and twitter for updates on the Stella Artois Légére summer sampling program. And keep your eyes peeled for the Stella Artois Légère street teams. Tweet or FB me if you see them!
Also, for all you parents or concerned folks out there — you MUST be 19+ to participate in the sampling — no complimentary beer for minors. Sorry guys!
So happy to be back in TO for the summer
