I was so unimpressed by the beer offerings that we held off until after the show -- it was just Harpoon's regular offerings that they've been doing for years or decades plus that special beer that Dontleave mentioned.

I'm the GM at Drink, but our food closes as 11pm Wed-Sat and 10pm Sun (closed Mon-Tues), so we're not the late night Mecca Eastern Standard was (food until 1:30). Expect the same level of good drinks and great hospitality but not equivalent (data: ESKD patron since 2007 and Drink patron since 2008).

Was enjoyable but rather pricy. Had a good time with their saucy humor and talented circus theatrics but felt a bit costly.

Thanks! Having Drink in my hands is a lot of pressure. What to keep and what to change with the time. How to get the staff to work to my ideals of what Drink is (or was since I frequented there a lot in 2008-2014) or to let them be themselves. It's been around for 14 years this month so it's a lot to take on.
