John Bragg just sent me details for his new happy hour specials at Circa which begin tomorrow, September 8:<\/p>\n
4-7 PM Mon-Fri:<\/strong> 9:30 PM-midnight Fri-Sat: Reverse happy hour<\/strong> I added those to the happy hour search engine<\/a> as well.\u00a0 I’ve added quick links to the happy hour search engine for cities where I’ve added a lot of specials, so you can quickly see all happy hour and drink specials available in that city.\u00a0 My goal is to get significant data entered for at least 25 cities, so this thing will hopefully catch on as a nationwide site for up-to-date happy hour information.\u00a0 I have 9 cities done so far, with Little Rock to become #10 in the next few days.\u00a0 If you saw me banging away on my laptop at the Saucer last week, that’s probably what I was doing.<\/p>\n For Memphis, I have Downtown pretty well covered, but not so much Midtown.\u00a0 If you know of specials I’m missing in other parts of Memphis, e-mail ’em to me and I’ll make sure they get into the search engine.<\/p>\n I’m learning a lot about other cities by entering their happy hours.\u00a0 For example, “reverse happy hour” (a late-night happy hour) is extremely popular in Phoenix – nearly every bar has one.\u00a0 I’ve also learned that the house liquors known as “wells” in Memphis are called “rail liquors” or “rails” in a few of the cities I’ve done, such as Washington, D.C. and Milwaukee.\u00a0 Milwaukee, by the way, is apparently a great place to get wasted for practically nothing.\u00a0 I found lots of stuff like 50 cent PBR specials and $15 open bar nights.<\/p>\n I have a favor to ask of anyone traveling out of town:\u00a0 If you can bring me back an issue of the free arts & entertainment weekly (equivalent to the Memphis Flyer) for whatever city you travel to, I’d much appreciate it.\u00a0 Those are the best source for happy hour information.\u00a0 I use bars’ websites too, but I consider those less reliable.<\/p>\n I need a break from the computer, so for the first time in several weeks I’m actually going to attend Sunday brunch.\u00a0 It’s at the Majestic this week (week 2 of 2, so next week it’ll be the Monkey).\u00a0 After that it’ll be time to beat Pete at pool at the Saucer.\u00a0 Again.\u00a0 See you later!\u00a0 Possibly another post later in the day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" John Bragg just sent me details for his new happy hour specials at Circa which begin tomorrow, September 8: 4-7 PM Mon-Fri: $4 well drinks almost all beers $3 featured wines $5\/glass or $20\/bottle 9:30 PM-midnight Fri-Sat: Reverse happy hour $4 well drinks almost all beers $3 featured wines $5\/glass or $20\/bottle specialty shots $4 … Continue reading “New happy hour specials at Circa starting tomorrow”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2524"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2524"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2524\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2524"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2524"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2524"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
