By virtue of its three-way license, NABC's gastronomical brewpub project is inclusive of spirits, and from the beginning we've elected to eschew the majority of mixed drinks in favor of selected distilled products served neat or on the rocks.
There'll be an exception or two, and Sunday Bloody Sunday is the first. It is the brainchild of John Campbell, whose explanation is below. Once we've done the necessary tasting, SBS will remain a Sunday staple, with an everyday Bloody Mary recipe available during other times.
Sunday Bloody Sunday - A Soft Opening of the New Albanian Bank Street Brewhouse's Bloody Mary Bar

This was originally set to be an unannounced practice run for the introduction of our "official" Sunday Bloody Mary Bar beginning on Sunday, August 16, but what's a trial session without a fair amount of test subjects? So, here's a last minute invite to pop in for pint (of sorts).
Please join us tomorrow, August 2, for an inaugural run of our premium Build-Your-Own Bloody Mary Bar and construct a cocktail tailored to your personal sense of culinary adventure.
