Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
The drink program is built out in three directions. Ten named cocktails run on branded spirits — Ketel One, Tito's, Don Julio Reposado, Casamigos Blanco, Nolet's Gin, Bulleit Bourbon — across espresso martini, margarita, spritz and Old Fashioned styles. Beer covers fourteen drafts and ten cans, with seltzers and ciders listed separately. A Zero Proof section pairs non-alcoholic beers with Crescent 9 THC beverages, so the non-drinkers get a real choice rather than a default.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Zoomies, a Ketel One espresso martini served on tap and chilled. If you want something longer, the Pawloma mixes Casamigos Blanco with grapefruit juice, fresh lime juice and soda. On the beer side, Cigar City Jai Alai and Green Bench Postcard Pilsner are both poured on draft.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Groups who want a single list that covers cocktails, draft beer and zero-proof options without anyone settling. Espresso martini drinkers get a tap-poured version; bourbon drinkers get the Alpha Pup Old Fashioned; anyone skipping alcohol can pick between Heineken 0.0, Guinness 0.0, Mango Cart NA or a Crescent 9 THC beverage.
- When should I go?
- A workable stop when the group can't agree on a drink category, since cocktails, fourteen drafts and a Zero Proof section all sit on the same list.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The espresso martini is served on tap rather than shaken to order, and the cocktail list names its base spirits — Ketel One, Don Julio Reposado, Casamigos Blanco, Nolet's Gin, Bulleit Bourbon — instead of leaving them generic. The zero-proof section goes past non-alcoholic beer to include THC beverages.
