I’m Thankful for Whiskey (and Pork)!

Enjoy each course with a whiskey cocktail, with all liquors locally sourced from New England distilleries, paying homage to the original land of Thanksgiving with Bully Boy, Ryan and Wood, and more. Pork-centric dishes from Saloon Chef Derek Clough will accompany each cocktail, from appetizer to dessert.
