SPECIALS
COCKTAILS
Hades' Plea: This sinful, downright hedonistic concoction is an enticing mix of our 4-grain bourbon and pomegranate liqueur. We take those two and shake them with simple syrup and fresh lemon juice. Served over ice, garnished with a two brandied cherries.
Cael's Bathwater Deluxe Edition: An entire bathtub-shaped cocktail just for you! Our classic Bathwater mix of sour apple, vodka, and lemonade - made bubbly this time with lemon-lime soda. Garnished with rose petals and a tiny rubber duck that you get to keep!
The Midnight Mule: We start with vodka, shaking it with blackberry liqueur, cranberry juice, and a squeeze of lime. We then top this night-dark cocktail with ginger beer, and garnish it with a slice of lime and fresh blackberries.
A Slow Screw Against A Wall In The Back Alleys Of Tuliyollal: Fun to order, fun to drink! We mix sloe gin, vodka, tequila, and bourbon with orange juice and fresh peach juice. This creates a bright orange drink that we guarantee will leave you wanting another. And another. Until you wake up in said back alley and wonder what happened the night prior.
Thick Goth Bitch: We drizzle a martini glass in a dark, house-made blackberry syrup.We then shake our new blackberry-touched gin, blackberry liqueur, and lemon juice with ice to create a dark purple, near-black cocktail that then gets topped with three skewered fresh blackberries. Everyone wants one of these!
South Shroud Swamp Water: Looks like we dipped our jug into the Rootslake and took home whatever came up, but we promise it tastes utterly divine. This murky green punch is ever college student's dream - gin, vodka, and rum mixed with blue curacao, pineapple juice and orange juice. Garnished with an orange wedge and a cherry!
SHOTS
Slut Juice: Named not because it is juice for sluts or made of sluts, but because it may just turn you into one after too many. Vodka, orange juice, and lemonade make for a sweet-sour shock to the brain that'll get your clothes off faster than you can shout "Happy Anniversary!"
The Violet Rose: Devilishly delicious, this shot is a 50/50 mix of rolanberry cream liqueur and black vodka. We float the vodka over top so that it slowly swirls into the pink cream liqueur for an extra cool effect!.
Pickled Willy's Revenge: The return of the strangely popular shot. Our house's slightly spicy bloody mary mix gets doubled in its potency and poured into a half of a hollowed-out pickle. Served with a baby celery stick inside. You're welcome.
Coeurlblood: Shockingly tart! Two flavors of vodka, rolanberry and watermelon, marry into a throuple with coconut rum, and get topped with a fresh slice of rolanberry. It sure is liquor.
Aunt Tii's Zinger: Off the taco tycoon's secret menu, we swear. Watermelon and spicy tamarind vodka are mixed with fresh watermelon juice, and served in a shot glass with a sweet-spicy chamoy and chili-lime dust rim.
Beeboo's Red Rage: This guy just won't quit. Our Beeboo IV energy drink blend gets shook up with cherry schnapps and makes a violently red shot that'll probably make you want to start a bar fight. Please don't.
BOURBON & WHISKY
4-grain Anniversary Bourbon - Our brand-new bourbon recipe features four distinct grains along with corn, giving it a distinct depth of flavor and an earthy note underneath the opening nose of dried fruit and raspberry jam. Enjoy a complex palate of spiced oak, milk chocolate, caramel, white pepper, and sweet black cherry is followed by a lengthy finish of orange peel, honey, sweet lemon cake, creamy chocolate, and pepper spice. Best enjoyed on the rocks, giving it the right amount of burn with a fine finish.
"I GOT THAT DOG IN ME" Rye - This meticulously crafted whiskey is so named for the savory umami flavor imbued into it. Supported by a subtle sticky sweetness and a woodsmoke taste on the tongue, this one's set to get you thinking about backyard barbecuin' season... The only question remains: Do you have that dog in you?
Roehwyta Highland Single-Malt La Noscean Scotch - So named for the maker's rough experimentation process for this scotch. Luckily, this one finally made it past his ever-discerning palate. It's said Cael went through hundreds of barrels before he figured out which one held the right properties for this scotch. Roehwyta starts with a sweet, honey-like taste, with the earthy, peaty smoke rolling in like the mist from the La Noscean highlands in the morning sun. Finally, a scotch that doesn't punch you in the face with dirt flavor. This one's more like rolling in the dirt with your lover.
The Eternally Bonded Rye Whisky - Bottled in bond, this whisky was made once when the Still & Strings was first beginning to brew and will never be made again. Since those days, this rye has been aging in its cask, waiting for the perfect day that Cael would let it out to shine. Surprisingly clear-tasting, this whisky starts with a cinnamon hit and follows with dried fruit, tobacco, and a touch of dragon pepper.
The Forbidden Apple: This Vylbrand-style whiskey is heavy on the sour apple and apple blossom, and tinged green for it. We took a twist on the classic barley mash and added a touch of corn and rye to balance out the tartness of the green apple. This whiskey starts with a sweet, crisp taste that follows with the classic whisky smokiness and finishes easy, clean, and smooth. Best sipped with ice or with an apple juice chaser.
CIDER & ALE
Jack's Bentbranch Pear Cider - Because apple is overdone. A sweet perry with that crisp pear flavor that is great on a warm day. Medium body, lightly tart, with a slight floral hint in the back.
Shadedark Black Cherry Cider - For when you're one step closer to the edge. A full-bodied, dark cider with that classic apple taste, followed with a sweet and surprising cherry finish.
Silk & Strings - We're trying to be cool and name our ales weirdly like everyone else does. This pale ale is crisp and light, light-bodied and malt-forward. Notes of green fruit, dragon pepper, a touch of banana and lemon peel, and just a bit bready on the back end.
Black Barghest Porter - This heavy-bodied ale starts with heavy-roasted malt and coffee, moving into chocolate and caramel, and then finishes with the slightly fruity note of raisin and molasses. Bottled in black glass. Exudes an ominous aura. But it's delicious.
The Pumpkinhead's Delight - The very spirit of All Saints' Wake came and sampled our pumpkin ale, we swear, and they loved it! The mash for this ale included a mix of nutmeg, cinnamon, and clove, along with a helping of pumpkin puree. Somehow, this brew both refreshes and warms you, best had in a heavy pint with friends.
Gimme S'more Stout - This campfire stout features smoked malt as its major ingredient - brewed with graham cracker, marshmallow, and plenty of chocolate. This stout's plenty sweet with a smoky air that lingers as you drink - served in-house with a toasted marshmallow.
mead
Martin's Blessed Mead - So named because Martin's apiaries are the ones that brought us our new line of mead, including this classic one. A deep amber color, it has notes of spiced rum and the honey sweetness you'd expect. This mead's mouthfeel is almost thick, in that the flavor coats your mouth on its way down. On the back end, it comes through with a fruity spicy with white grape. Best in a hot toddy.
By The Hearth Mead - This winter special mead features warm notes of cinnamon and vanilla, with just enough heat to warm you from the inside out. Sweet and honey-forward, there's a floral breeze on the back end that creeps as you continue to sip. Flavours get woken up when served warm!
Cieldales Sanctuary Mead - Hibiscus flowers straight from the mysterious Cieldales islands star in this vibrant pink ginger-hibiscus mead. The ginger gives it a spicy heat while the hibiscus nectar gives it a sweet smoothness that makes this mead an easy drinker.
The Blue Bee Mead -This sweet-tart honey wine is made with honey created from bees raised right at home in the Shroud. Combined with the best blueberries we could find and aged for months in the Stills' retired bourbon barrels for that slightly woody finish. Can be served as is, or try it in our "Ginger-blue Bee", mixed with gin and ginger beer!
moonshine
Odin's Full Moon - Because the weather was just strange when this moonshine was conceived. Great blue-green fog rolled in, and the clouds parted to reveal a full moon that night that our proprietor first made this moonshine. This 100-proof moonshine has a clear, crisp taste without the severe burn that you'd normally get from this type of liquor.
Not Your Mama's Peach Cobbler - This moonshine starts with juicy peaches and a bit of spice and vanilla to create one hell of a drink that tastes like a peach cobbler in liquid form. If only peach cobbler had this few calories and got you this drunk, huh?
Of Course We Made Apple Pie. - Seasonally offered. Every moonshine distiller worth their salt is gonna offer an apple pie variant, and of course we were going to do the same. We use pure apple juice from our orchards in the Shroud, blended with cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla, to conjure the memory of a fresh apple pie sitting on granny's windsill.
Blackberry Ambrosia - Seasonally offered. Coming in on the tail end of blackberry season, we had to get something good in. This night-black moonshine is mixed with a bit of luster dust to make it look like a starry sky, like some sort of elixir the Gods themselves would drink. Sweet, tart, goes down smooth, makes you feel incredible - that's the buzz, of course.
tequila & mezcal
Muerte al Maguey - We don't wanna talk about how we got all the megamaguey piñas we needed for this. The name says it all. This mezcal joven is twice-distilled in wood-fired copper stills and has a tropical nose reminiscent of all the best parts of Tural. With a palate of roasted agave, ginger, and tangerine, this mezcal is the best base for any number of cocktails!
El Jinete Blanco - They say the devil rides in on a white horse - and the devil that is a hangover rides in on tequila blanco. 100% blue agave gives this blanco tequila a peppery, agave-centric taste with just a tiny citrusy-smooth finish.
Smoke over Chabameki - This mezcal añejo a is a deep golden hue, the recipe comes from the Pelupelu mezcaleros our propietor learned the trade from. Smoky, with notes of buttery caramel and spice. Great on the rocks!
rum
Seven Springs White Rum - Okay, so we only got the water from one local spring, but Seven sounds nicer than One, doesn't it? This clear white rum is warm, slightly sweet, and has aromas of pear and cinnamon. Finishing with a subtle taste of anise, nice and crisp and clear.
Cieldales Classic Dark Rum - Made with the help of totally consenting, happy mammets out in the Cieldales, featuring an ancient Lalafellin recipe. We've aged this one in our own oak barrels, giving it an oaky start with a nutmeg hit, but that didn't take the tropical taste out of this dark rum. Great in a mai tai any time of year.
Captain Cael's Plunder Spiced Rum - ( The bottle has a realistic depiction of Caelholdt himself standing on a cask, with his hair billowing in the wind behind him.) Every pirate - erm, privateer's favorite. This spiced rum is spicy, dominating the flavor until it mellows out to butter, vanilla, with smoke and oak on the end.
