Yard of Ale - GOKickball Special

So as you all should know by now, we are calling Yard of Ale our home away from home as it is home of the $2 non-home-brewed Yuengling draft, homeboy.*

Anyway, it appears they are in the process of changing their menu. Here is our "official" deal, as described to me yesterday:
  • $2 Yuengling drafts, $7 pitchers
  • $2 drafts of all Abita beers on tap (they usually have two or three to choose from, and Abita makes Purple Haze and Turbodog)
  • $5 flatbreads, which are allegedly new thin-crust pizzas they're making
  • $1 sliders (beef or pork)
  • YoA has reiterated that they will have karaoke
  • They'll also provide a couple of tables for flip-cup, which we should clearly segment like they do blackjack tables (by minimum bet).  You can find me at the IPA only flip-cup table.
So there you have it.  If anything changes I'll let you know. 

*Please note "WAKA-esque" writing was intentional.

I'm in! Great specials and we can shout obscenities at Waka from across the street!

Count me in too for the IPA table. And I believe Abita is brewed in New Orleans so Handler I expect you to come back with a full report of all the different styles of beer they offer and what you prefer.

I'll leave the beer reviews to the Beer Jew. Now if you want a wine review... complete with which red stains your couch the best...

Sounds like a tried and true deal to me. They also have a $10 open bar from 7 to 9 on Thursdays that maybe the early game people can capitalize on if they get over there quick enough. That place is typically packed until it ends and people move over to MacDs.

Nice work on those specials. It's amazing what can be done by having a rep for the peeps who is actually TRYING to get a deal instead of just letting MacDinton's tell you what you're getting and be happy with it.

$2 Purple hazes? I might have to skip out on Gaspar's this season and come party at YOA.

Ohhh I am all for some IPA's!!! Thanks for putting this all together Chandler!

Haha. You're welcome Paige... but our two options for bars (YoA and Bungalow) were put together but Johnny (GKB) and Ray (Shockers).

If this league works out for us it'll be due to the work of a lot of our friends. I'm merely just reporting on everything. :)
