"What We're Drinking This Week" is Root Beer Barrels

"What We're Drinking This Week", and frankly, what we've been drinking every week for quite some time is The Green Parrot Root Beer Barrel. It's a proven favorite any time of the year and any time of the day. 

It's our signature drink, a chilled shot of DeKuypers Root Beer Schnapps, nestled in a chilled rocks glass, filled with draft beer right to the top of the shot glass,

then thrown back, all in one motion and one gulp, so the sweet schapps and the icy beer combine on the palette in a symbiosis one  hopes for when the bartender slides your cocktail of choice across the bar, so, whether  you're just stopping in for a "quick one"... ....or having a group toast to punctuate a celebratory occasion. 

This group is ready to have at it
