And you thought it was just a Canadian bar. (Did you, really? I mean, they do have a Canadian map on the wall. But they also have this mantra posted, in big block letters: REAL MEN EAT BEAVER.) Shanghaiist ended up at the Eager Beaver last night after a late dinner at Anadolu -- home of the 18 RMB beef doner wrap and the 25 RMB can of Tsingtao. At the Beaver, bottles of Tsingtao were 15 RMB, 50 Years of BBC News played sans sound on the flat screen and someone handed out tiny slips of paper advertising "Beaver Breaks," an evening of "HipHop/Breakbeat/Drum'n'Bass/Ragga" from your favorite DJs The Melkman, Skyline and DJ O. Pretty much your average Wednesday night near Dongping Lu.
But turn the slip of paper over, and you're in for something a little bit different. Here is what was printed in a faded, dot-matrix-y font that was hard to make out in the dim light of the bar:
Naughty Beaver 26.6.05The Eager Beaver has been naughty and bought lots of Sex toys and Sexual health products. We're having an Ann Summers type demonstration this SATURDAY NIGHT. Ladies Only Party from 8-10, half price drinks and the chance to purchase a fun toy to spice up your lovelife at very good prices!!! Gentlemen will be served drinks at the outside seating area and will be admitted at 10 o'clock. Guys, don't miss this chance to meet lots of excited ladies!!! Any items still available after 10 will be auctioned. So come to The Eager Beaver this Saturday Night, have some sexy fun and enjoy our usual inexpensive drink prices and great music!
Tell 'em Shanghaiist sent ya. And think of us when you're downing your first Blow Job (shot, that is). On second thought, don't think of us. That would just be weird.
