The Blog continues! The Happy Hour Guys bring their tasting and pairing knowledge to 5 Napkin with this wonderful beverage out of Denver, Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey. A big, bold all-Colorado beverage, check out this 2 minute piece for some tips on getting more flavor out of each glass, and a fine pairing from the 5 Napkin menu. Enjoy!
The Guys make a stop off at this VERY cool new place on 21st street in Astoria, New York. Vesta is generating buzz on many levels, from getting reviews listing the food as some of the best in the borough to serving local wines... ON TAP. Oh, and they get much of their produce from a 1 acre Organic roof garden in Queens, and feature a veggie farm stand on saturdays! How cool is that? Enjoy!
Welcome, all! With this episode The Happy Hour Guys begin a partnership with New York based 5 Napkin Burger, an upscale fine dining restaurant with an amazing craft beer and bourbon list that will knock your socks off. In the coming months, look for us to be journeying to other 5 Napkin locations (they're coming to a street corner near you), to Bourbon Country, and to many of the breweries that make the Craft Beer that they feature! We'll be bringing you the behind the scenes story of these fine beverages and pairing each liquid up with something wonderful off of the 5 Napkin menu. Incredible burgers with craft beer? Kobe beef hot dogs and barleywine? Sushi and bourbon? Let's try something new. Enjoy!
The Guys stop by Wynkoop Brewing in Denver and have a nice chat with their featherfoot (why isn't it featherhoof?) Clydesdales, as well as our old friend Marty Jones, their head Cheersleader and Idea Man. Find out why this place goes far above and beyond beer to community activism, reclaiming downtowns, and helping establish the future Governor-elect of the State of Colorado. Cheers!
Recently Ruby's Old Time Bar and Grill in Coney Island, a just-past-Prohibition business on the Boardwalk, was given two weeks notice to vacate after sitting as a New York institution for over 80 years. An impromptu protest and funeral was held last Saturday. We were there.
Don't you think it's time we had a slick theatrical Trailer? So do we.
The Guys make another stop in beautiful Denver Colorado at the Cruise Room, a classic martini bar in the Oxford hotel that opened the day Prohibition ended. Modeled to look like a lounge on the Queen Mary, this one is a can't miss. Enjoy!
