Weekly Beer Special

Thursday thru Saturday

Discounts on Real Ale from 5-7PM

($2 draft)

Enjoy 5 different Real Ale Beers (click: beer specs)

Wine tasting class Sunday at 5pm

We are tasting 5 different white wines including Orange Moscato! Think of Wine Tasting as like being on a cruise.
Going from Port to Port (no pun intended) instead of selecting a single vacation spot or bottle of wine.
The cruiser enjoys the journey (tasting), as well as the destination (bottle).
When you wine taste, you get to sample many different varieties of wine, from a few different wineries,
and most take home a souvenir bottle to enjoy.
The Friendly schedules wine tastings monthly.  Please call Chef Ed or Tom for the schedule.

~~~~~
You are officially invited to THE FBB!!
