The editorial take

The beverage program at 1898 Public House centers on a brunch-time Breakfast Cocktails section with four named drinks, including the Midnight Hammer, Traditional Irish Coffee, Peach Bellini, and Breakfast Martini. A Choose-Your-Own Bloody Mary and a four-part Mimosa Flight add flexibility. Beer leans on Blue Moon, served cold in tall glasses with orange garnish, and a house-made pale ale Roquefort dressing is referenced on the menu.

What should I order?
Start with the Midnight Hammer, built on Old Forester Rye with Thomas Hammer Espress-Go and Kahlúa. For a lighter brunch option, the Breakfast Martini combines Beefeater gin, Cointreau, and Aperol. The Choose-Your-Own Bloody Mary lets you set the salt, mixer, and four toppings.
Who will enjoy this place?
Anyone seeking a brunch cocktail with specified spirits and a build-your-own option will find a focused list here. Beer drinkers looking for a cold Blue Moon in a tall glass with an orange garnish are covered, though the beer selection is narrow.
