The editorial take
Outpost’s beverage program runs wide: signature cocktails like Blood Mountain and Blue Ridge sit alongside classics, canned drinks, and shots. Wine covers red, white, bubbles, and rose by the glass, with Monday 2-for-1 pours. Beer leans local, with Five Wits, Hutton & Smith, Oddstory, and Brewing on draft. The liquor menu goes deep on whiskey and bourbon, including Blanton’s and Colonel Taylor, plus multiple mezcals. Non-alcoholic choices include three NA cocktails and several NA beers.
- What should I order?
- Start with the Blood Mountain, a $13 signature built on Larceny bourbon, blood orange, lemon, and ginger beer. For a classic, the Old Fashioned uses rye, sorghum, orange, and bitters. Beer drinkers can check the rotating local drafts; Five Wits Fierro Mexican Lager is $5.00 during happy hour.

- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
