The Pay It Pourward Wall is stocked and ready. ❤️🍻

Redeem a ticket for yourself or leave one behind to Pay It Pourward for someone else. Because sometimes the best cocktails are the ones shared with the community.

Then let one of our Rat Pack favorites: Mike, Taylor, Erin, Tommy, Zakk, Bella, Aspen, Sage or Josh whip up something delicious for you behind the bar. 🍹✨

Good drinks. Good people. Good vibes. Very Ratskeller behavior. Prost!
