Beard appreciation has become a passion for a few at Pourhouse. That's why on the last Monday of every month, they have decided to invite bearded comrades to gather and just ʻbeʼ. Starting February 27, from 4pm - 7pm, Pourhouse will host An Afternoon Gathering of Bearded Gentlemen.

The Chef will prepare delicious beard friendly snacks (on the house). Enjoy the company of other bewhiskered chaps. There will be discussions on the benefits of beards, beard maintenance, bearded ladies, as well as other beard and non-beard related gentlemanly topics of conversation. Come enjoy an afternoon of nosh and libations with other men that share your values ... men that just want to be men.

If that's not enough to convince you, have a read over the Beard Nation's statement of beliefs:

WE BELIEVE you should have a beard. If you are a lady, you are excluded

WE BELIEVE that men were created to have beards

WE BELIEVE that if your man has no beard, he should not be your man
