THE HOUR OF POWER.

Just reminding all you lovely music lovers that on gig nights from 7:30-8:30pm in the band room ONLY are $9 pints and $5 pots of pale, lager, and cider.

Maybe you should come along to a show and take advantage of that bargain?

Start with this one TONIGHT!

Cranachan is a traditional Scottish dessert made with whisky, raspberries, honey, oats and cream.

Johnnie Walker Black Ruby is the brand’s first new release in 13 years! A blended Scotch whisky with tasting notes of rich honey and red berries.

It’s our birthday month so we’re feeling a little lush - the Catfish Cranachan is our featured cocktail for November! Made with Johnnie Walker Black Ruby, raspberries, sweet vermouth, lemon, sugar, and chocolate, it’s a suitably decadent birthday beverage!
