We just went ot one of Season's Jazz on the Patio Saturdays last night and it was a good time! While we were there I found out about an upcoming "Beer Dinner" & a Scotch dinner. So, I thought that I would let everyone know about some really good sounding dinners coming up at Season's. Below is the info from their website.
Regarding their cocktails: the featured list looked intriguing so we tried a couple of them a "Kentuckytini" & a "Raspberry Lemonade". We thought that they were both overwrought and much too sweet for our tastes; as well as pricey to be so "mix tasting"... Anyway, the good news is that they have a good wine list and several relly good small batch bourbons so we switched to "neat" Basil Hayden & Baker's. Good call!

"We're planning an evening of blues and brews on our upstairs patio with a Sierra Nevada Beer Dinner on Thursday, July 24th.

I've been drinking a lot of microbrews lately, let's say I wanted to change it up a bit with.. you know what, it's been so long since I had an actual cocktail, I think it was a sapphire martini, shaken, I don't even know how to order, and prior to the sapphire, i went on a caucasion binge, here's my trick, a few cubes, 3-4 oz stoli, splash milk, splash kaluha, watch the big lebowski, repeat. Do I need some help or what, i'm just to busy making sausage?
