It's another cool fall Sunday, and it's hard to believe but it's Ryudo's final shift behind the O&B Bar. Come out and show him some love for the incredible and creative cocktails he's created with us over the years!

He'll be here spinning up new and old favorites today (fans of the Wuthering Heights - now is your chance!) so come enjoy a cocktail this afternoon and help us wish him well in his next chapter!

Open 2pm - 8pm.

🍁 October has been filled with TONS of exciting changes at O&B; we have new cocktails, new snacks and desserts, new partners and even new days we're open. We couldn't be more excited for the months ahead, as Fall and Winter always seem to bring a certain kind of warmth and energy to our Tasting Room.

That said, it can be tough to get the word out about everything, so here's a quick recap of what you can expect to find in our bar this season:
- Our new cocktail menu, featuring delicious seasonal flavors and spices
- Our first ever dessert menu, including a cheesecake sampler from Chill's Cheesecakes and massive, creative cookies from GRAIN REAPER BAKING CO 🖤💀 GOURMET DESSERTS alongside specialty chosen nightcap cocktails
- A friendly face to greet you on Tuesdays and Wednesdays as we are now open six days a week
- Well deserved Industry Night specials on Tuesdays for our friends in the local hospitality business
- Our newest spirit, Peated Lime Rock, which adds a lovely smoky, earthy note to many of our aforementioned seasonal cocktails
- Exciting Unity Park collaborations like our Halloween Alley with Pivotal Brewing Company | Bristol, RI on October 30th, an "Evening with the Spirits" Cocktail Dinner with BRICK Pizza Co. on Halloween Night, and tasty crossover menu items at Basil & Bunny
- The same Jazz Fridays with Wood Street Jazz , Cocktail Classes, and enjoyable evenings you've come to expect throughout the year.

We hope to see you all soon.

What do roasted beets, white chocolate, caramelized pineapple, and ras el hanout all have in common?

They're all part of our new seasonal menu, debuting this week! We'll have familiar autumn flavors, warm spices, and rich and sweet nightcaps (plus our first ever dessert menu 👀) to complement all of our long-time house classics.

Keep an eye on our posts and stories this week for a sneak peek at what's coming!

🌊🔥🌱 Introducing our newest spirit: PEATED LIME ROCK.

There's no other way to say it: this is something truly unique and special, and we're thrilled to get it out into the world. Built on the base of Lime Rock Gin, we add malted barley kilned with peat from Aberdeenshire on the North Sea, delivering a smoky, earthy complement to the sea salt and maritime flavors of the original. The result is a spirit with the notes of a peated wh***ey, but with a light mouthfeel and smooth, clean finish.

Suitable in savory martinis, smoky fruited sours, Gin Old Fashioneds or even sipped on the rocks. The possibilities are endless.

And the label, of course, features the unparalleled work of Ry Smith

Available at our bar and coming soon to restaurants and retailers near you!

🍍🥃 PINEAPPLE EQUINOX, weekend special feat. O&B Blended Bourbon.

Welp, it certainly feels like summer is moving into fall, so we've crafted something to bridge the gap from tropical summer sun to crisp fall evenings. With a spiced and caramelized pineapple syrup on top of our warm oaky bourbon and a hit of citrus, you'll get layers of flavors you can savor as the days slowly get shorter.
