Where the rubber meets the weekend.
FROM PERKS
Things you don’t hate: beef jerky crafted in small batches from all-natural ingredients; flavors like sweet sriracha BBQ, maple buffalo bacon and “Reaper” made with the hottest pepper on earth. This stuff could do wonders for your tailgating game…
REQUIRED READING
Smuggler’s Cove. Great bar. A bar where the tiki drinks are ample and excellent. So, when you hear that the proprietor of said bar, Martin Cate, wrote a book and would like to talk to you about it tonight at Omnivore, you’ll likely think, “Rum.” Followed by, “That sounds interesting.” Good responses, both.
TAKE ME TO CHURCH
It’s important to support your beloved drinking establishments. Especially the ones that make you excellent Old Fashioneds. Like Churchill, which is turning five tonight and throwing itself a birthday party with a brass band, Motown DJs and drinks. The drinks may have been implied.
STATE OF THE UNION
Summer, aka September, is fast approaching. So it’s awfully convenient that Unionmade is having a huge end-of-season sale with an even huge-er selection of polos from Orlebar Brown and oxford shorts from the Hill-Side and other things you like. Assuming you like things in general.
CAMP’S IN SESSION
Maybe you’re going to Outside Lands. Maybe you’re not. Either way, you’re going to this Wet Hot American Summer–themed Outside Lands after-party. DJs and summer camp attire will be involved. So will you listening to DJs and wearing summer camp attire. It’s just how these things work.
SEVENTH HEAVEN
You’ll recall Seven Stills, that glorious establishment that makes whiskey from beer and opened a taproom a couple months ago. Well, they’re having a gathering this Sunday with a whole lot of music, BBQ, burgers and… whiskey made from beer. You’ve got it from here.
Lauren Sloss requires a climate that allows her to wear motorcycle boots daily. She likes her bourbon neat and her martinis dirty, and would like to be the lead singer of a punk rock band when she grows up.
