We prorate your rent by the day after the first 28-day billing cycle, so you don't have to pay for a full month when you only have your mobile containers and offices for a few days.

While other companies may be able to do small container modifications, most don't have an in-house fabrication staff or 90,000 sq ft fabrication facility like we do. As a result, they outsource the work on your custom container, so you don't know who's actually building it.

El Segundo, CA – California-based El Segundo Brewing Company today announced a series of events showcasing Broken Skull Double IPA, the brewery’s latest collaboration with WWE legend and Hall of Famer Steve Austin, hitting store shelves this spring. “Steve’s Badass Bars,” a national series of Broken Skull tap-takeover events, will kick off at El Segundo on March 16th – a date significant to Austin fans, and culminate with WrestleMania 39 pre-game events on April 1 and 2.

“Broken Skull fans have been asking us to do a Double IPA for years, so we decided to introduce it in a big way!,” said Steve Austin. “While we have the ultimate draw with WrestleMania 39 in El Segundo’s backyard, we wanted folks across the country to have a badass, A-Show experience, so we’re bringing it to them!”

While tickets to the March 16th kick-off event, announced on Steve’s social media, sold out in seconds, fans can still get in on the action at El Segundo, and throughout the country, in the days leading up to WrestleMania 39.

An advance opportunity to try the limited release Double IPA and other Broken Skull beers, enter to win door prizes and raffles for Broken Skull beer, Austin-autographed merchandise, and other prizes. Consumers can find the nearest “Steve’s Badass Bar” events at El Segundo’s website and by following @brokenskullbeer on Instagram. Confirmed pop-ups include Fine Line in the Boston area, JT’s Corner Tap & Eatery in Chicago, Up-Down STL in St. Louis, and DDT in Park Slope, Brooklyn.

Broken Skull is offering a limited number of one-way Shuttle Pass Packages ($100 per person) from El Segundo Brewery to WrestleMania 39 at SoFi Stadium. Pass holders can pre-game at the brewery with three (3) beer tickets to use in the Broken Skull taproom before riding the VIP shuttle to the stadium. Pass-holders also receive a Steve Austin-signed “For a Few Skulls More” poster and a Broken Skull sticker and koozie. Shuttles will depart at 2 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 1, and 3:30 p.m. on Sunday, April 2. VIP Shuttle Passes can be bought at brokenskullbeer.com

The El Segundo Brewing/Steve Austin Partnership

The first collaboration between El Segundo and Austin came about when the wrestling icon visited the brewery with a buddy. He was already a fan of El Segundo’s Mayberry IPA and after chatting with founder Rob Croxall he shared that he had an interest in pursuing a brewery project of his own. From that conversation a collaboration ensued and ultimately Broken Skull IPA – the name inspired by Austin’s wrestling background – came to life. Austin was very involved in the development of the IPA and the flavor profile reflects his input. The collaboration was incredibly successful and El Segundo has dramatically expanded their distribution footprint due in large part to the success of Broken Skull IPA. Following the tremendous success of Broken Skull IPA, El Segundo expanded its partnership with Austin in 2022 with the release of Broken Skull American Lager.

Broken Skull Double IPA

Answering the fans’ call, the collaborators have created Broken Skull Double IPA, a limited release beer with 8.0% ABV. Centennial Hops – along with Citra, Chinook and Cascade – give it more of a citrus punch, and notes of candied citrus, papaya and underripe mango are balanced with a clean malt backbone.

“Think of it like the big brother to Broken Skull IPA,” said El Segundo Founder Rob Croxall. “Broken Skull Double IPA offers a heavyweight punch with a cruiserweight body that won’t weigh you down. Can I get a double ‘Hell Yea’?”

The Double IPA will be available for purchase this spring in the following retailers: HEB; Total Wine & More; Spec’s Wine, Spirits & Finer Foods; Central Market; Albertsons; and your favorite independent beer shops.

About El Segundo Brewing

El Segundo Brewing is an independent craft brewery founded by Rob Croxall and Tom Kelley in El Segundo, California 2011. El Segundo focuses on fresh, hoppy, West Coast IPAs and clean lagers that can be found on tap walls and in retailers across 27 states as well as Japan. In 2014, El Segundo formed a partnership with Steve Austin to launch the Broken Skull Beer IPA. The incredible success of that release resulted in the expansion of the brewery capacity and output and an ongoing partnership between Austin and El Segundo.

About Steve Austin

As he made his way through the business, he developed the now world famous “Stone Cold” persona and became the blue-collar warrior for the common man. Among his numerous in-ring accomplishments, Steve is a six-time WWE World Champion, the only three-time Royal Rumble match winner, and a two-time WWE Intercontinental Champion. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2009.

This second attempt at liftoff for the rocket – 85% of which is made with massive 3D printers – had been scheduled during a three-hour window of 1-4 p.m. EST at Cape Canaveral, Florida.

An initial launch attempt Wednesday was scrubbed "due to exceeding launch commit criteria limits for propellant thermal conditions on stage 2," the company said.

After the mission was scrubbed, Relativity Space posted on Twitter that more information would be forthcoming about the "cause of aborts today." Earlier Saturday morning, the launch crew said on Twitter that "upper-level winds are a potential concern today and we are continuing to monitor."

Relativity Space's next launch attempt has not yet been set, but it will take at least two days for teams to replenish propellants at Cape Canaveral Launch Complex 16, reported Florida Today, part of the USA TODAY Network.

What is the 3D-printed rocket's mission?

The Terran 1, which is a prototype with no customer payload, is scheduled to liftoff, then undergo a stage separation, second engine start and cutoff, and achieve orbit.

The goal of the initial launch is to prove the 7.5-feet diameter, 3D-printed vehicle is durable enough for launch and space flight.

Liftoff and getting over the Atlantic and passing Max-Q, the point in the flight when the rocket will be at maximum stress would "be a big inflection point," the company said in a discussion of launch success on Twitter. "Why? Because it's the phase of flight where the structural loads on the vehicle are the highest, passing this point in flight proves our hypothesis: 3D printed rockets are structurally viable!"

Should the Terran 1 – dubbed "Good Luck, Have Fun" or "GLHF" – make it to low Earth orbit (LEO), Relativity Space will consider it "would be a total home run," Space.com reported, citing an email from Relativity Space representatives.

If that goal is met, Relativity would be the first privately-held, venture-backed space company to have successfully done so on its first launch, the company said.

“We have our own in-house team that has designed this rocket from a blank piece of paper, built our own factory with the world's largest metal 3D printers, our own custom aluminum alloys. We build our own rocket engines," said Tim Ellis, cofounder and CEO of Relativity Space. "Now we're about to launch it."

This launch is just the first step in Relativity's interstellar plan to go to Mars.

Last year, the company announced plans with Impulse Space of El Segundo, California, to develop a Mars Cruise Vehicle and Mars Lander on a Terran R rocket no earlier than 2024.

There is a video of a young Lars Nootbaar saying: "Konnichiwa, I'm Lars Nootbaar and I'm Japanese and I want to represent my country Japan."

Now, that long-held, seemingly unlikely, dream of the St Louis Cardinals outfielder has come true at the 2023 World Baseball Classic.

Seemingly unlikely because until this year, the Samurai Japan national baseball team had never selected a player born outside of Japan. Nootbaar was born and raised in El Segundo, California, near the Los Angeles International Airport.

But when Nootbaar received the call asking him if he would be interested in breaking that barrier and representing Japan, the answer was an immediate yes.

Wait, you might say, Lars Nootbaar isn't a particularly Japanese-sounding name?

Lars Taylor-Tatsuji Nootbaar, to give him his full name (his Japanese name Tatsuji was for his grandfather), qualifies for the Japanese team through his mother Kumiko, who still holds Japanese citizenship.

That video of the young Nootbaar dates from his Little League playing days. "That was just the real, genuine, 10-year-old me speaking my heart," the now-25-year-old recently said on FOX Sports' Flippin' Bats Podcast.

"The fact that now we're here where we are and I'm able to actually do that, it's a pretty surreal moment, really."

Lars Nootbaar: From Team Japan ball-boy…

Nootbaar can remember, as an eight-year-old, players from Japan's national high school representative team coming to live with him and his family.

The team, which included future Olympic champion and New York Yankees pitcher Tanaka Masahiro, was playing in a tournament at the nearby University of Southern California – the school Nootbaar would later attend and be drafted out of into Major League Baseball – and the players were assigned host families.

"My mom, being bilingual, was like absolutely we're going to host them, so we hosted two of them," he recalled. "For me, these guys were like, pro – these guys were big leaguers. The closest thing I'd ever been to, seeing it in real life, how good these players are.

"For me, I was so pumped that my parents were willing to do it. They took my bed, I slept on the couch, but I didn't care. I got to hang out with these future potential baseball players, that was everything I ever wanted."

He also served as a ball-boy for the team during the tournament, and with three members of his family born in Japan – his brother and sister were in addition to his mother – the affinity and relationship with the Japanese national team is strong.

"My mom grew up a huge baseball fan. We watched the Koshien tournament (Japan's top high-school baseball tournament) whenever we could, she always knew about the young talent in Japan who was going to come over to the big leagues before anybody did," Nootbaar recalled.

…to Team Japan call-up

Still, a call-up for the Classic in 2023 seemed like a far stretch. As recently as 2020, Nootbaar was working in manual labour after the Minor League Baseball season was lost to Covid and he was left without a pay check.

However, once he received the call-up to the majors in 2021, the only way was up. Nootbaar hasn't looked back, establishing himself as a mainstay in the Cardinals outfield.

And yet, the first, casual, approaches were somewhat surprising – coming not through any official channels, but rather Mizuhara Ippei, more well-known in MLB circles as the translator for superstar two-way player (and Nootbaar's WBC teammate) Ohtani Shohei.

Nootbaar told Flippin' Bats: "Ippei, Shohei's interpreter, reached out to me when I was in Milwaukee, like 'hey, I want to gauge your interest'.

"It was a total random reach-out, it was awesome. I got a follow and a DM on Instagram, I was like man, I could not be happier about this right now, it was one of those things – it was awesome."

Nootbaar's first taste of Samurai Japan action – with him wearing the jersey as a player – came in an exhibition game against the Hanshin Tigers of Nippon Professional Baseball ahead of the WBC, in which he registered two hits.

While Nootbaar's Japanese is, self-admittedly, basic, the language barrier does not seem to be stopping him.

Both Ohtani and Darvish Yu speak good English, having played in the majors and lived in the United States for years, while Nootbaar also has his mother for support.

He has been learning the words to Japan's anthem, Kimigayo, from her – and it's clear she is his inspiration in putting on the Japan uniform.

"I think there's a sense of pride being able to represent Team Japan and where she grew up," he said on the podcast. "It's a pretty cool moment because she sacrificed so much for me.

"I can't wait, it's a dream come true for me."
