We can't guarantee you'll find a toe, but we can guarantee Pipeworks Brewing Co. will be present at Logan Theatre (2646 N. Milwaukee Ave.) Jan. 9 for the re-release of their White Russian Imperial Stout, "Hey Careful Man, There's a Beverage Here," a milk stout brewed with cocoa nibs, Dark Matter coffee and vanilla. The beer's presence comes before a screening of The Big Lebowski , the Coen Brothers cult classic, which will run at the theater on Jan. 10, and 12 as well.

Prior to the 10:30 p.m. screening of the film, a pre-release party will be thrown for the beer, which will be tapped at 7 p.m. Party goers are not only allowed to dress up, but are encouraged to do so! So come as The Dude, come as Walter Sobchak, or as The Jesus. Did we mention there are prizes for the best costume?

Tickets for the film are $7.50, and can be bought at the door, or on Logan Theatre's website. 10 oz servings of "Hey Careful Man," will be available for $8.00. A limited number of bottles for "Over the Line," the bourbon barrel aged version of "Hey Careful Man," will be available as well.

Even though the beer and film will be celebrated on Shomer Shabbas, don't fret. You can break it for this event.
