Wild Bill Days is here!

We’ll be opening at NOON today and tomorrow, so stop in, grab a drink, and enjoy one of the best views of Outlaw Square.

And if you’re playing our Observation & Judgment Deck Bingo, this weekend should be a gold mine. With all the characters, costumes, and people-watching that Wild Bill Days brings to town, you might just fill a few squares!

See you upstairs! 🥃

They have arrived. 🥃🇺🇸

The new Rittenhouse United States 250th Anniversary Commemorative Edition has officially landed at the Deadwood Elks Bar.

Only 150 bottles were allocated to the entire state of South Dakota, and we are proud to be the only bar in the Northern Black Hills selected to receive an allocation.

This special 10-Year Bottled-in-Bond Straight Rye Whiskey was released to commemorate America’s 250th Anniversary and is expected to be one of the most sought-after rye releases of the year.

Our three bottles are now safely behind the bar and will be available in limited pours while supplies last.

And yes… Chaos Chicken has already inspected the shipment and given his approval. 🐔🎩

🥃 Cheers to 250 years of American independence.

🥃🏆 WE HAVE OUR FIRST WINNERS 🏆🥃

The Observation Deck has officially entered the record books.

Congratulations to Bill, Dave, and Lonnie, who each scored one of the first three-ever Bingos on our Observation Deck Judgment Report cards!

From questionable fashion choices and tourist sightings to Main Street oddities, all three managed to complete a line and claim their place in Observation Deck history.

Now the real question is…

Who will be the first to score a BLACKOUT and earn the coveted Mystery Shot prize? 👀🥃

The windows are open, the people-watching is world-class, and the bingo cards are waiting.

NEW AT THE DEADWOOD ELKS BAR

Introducing the Observation & Judgment Deck Bingo.

Grab a cocktail. Take a seat by the windows. Watch Main Street do what Main Street does.

Spot things like matching shirts, tour buses, motorcycle groups, tiaras, giant souvenirs, Chaos Chicken, and whatever else the day decides to provide.

🏆 BINGO Wins Bragging Rights!

🥃 BLACKOUT BINGO Wins A draw from the Mystery Shot Deck!

Ask your bartender for full details.

Completely free to play. No purchase necessary. No Cocktail Club membership required. Just a little harmless people-watching and a lot of laughs.

Rule #1: All judgments are made with love.

Because let’s be honest…

Main Street is our entertainment.

🎶 TWO MEMBERS. TWO ALBUMS. TWO COCKTAILS. ONE STORY. 🎶

This Tuesday, we’re turning the spotlight over to two of our favorite Cocktail Club members.

If you’ve spent any time upstairs, you’ve probably met Dave and Brenda.

Dave helps behind the bar during some of our busiest weekends. Brenda has been putting up with him for years. ❤️

Their musical tastes couldn’t be more different…

🌾 Dave’s Pick
John Mellencamp — Scarecrow
🥃 Scarecrow Boilermaker
Jack Daniel’s Old No. 7 & Coors Banquet

🔥 Brenda’s Pick
Meat Loaf — Bat Out of Hell
🍸 Bat Out of Hell
Patrón Silver, Grand Marnier, Lemon & Demerara

One prefers whiskey and beer.

One prefers tequila and a little drama.

Somehow they’ve made it work.

Join us Tuesday at 6:30 as we celebrate two great friends, two great albums, and two cocktails that couldn’t be more different.

🍸 Now Pouring: The Aviation 🍸

Long before craft cocktails were trendy, there was the Aviation.

This classic cocktail combines gin, fresh lemon, Luxardo Maraschino, and liqueur de violette to create a drink that’s refreshing, aromatic, and unmistakably beautiful.

Over a century later, it’s still one of the most elegant cocktails ever created.

Available now at Deadwood Elks Bar.

🌙 Two Albums. Two Cocktails.🌙

Some albums are collections of songs.

Some albums take you somewhere.

This Tuesday, we’re spending the evening with two of the most atmospheric and influential albums ever recorded:

🎸 Pink Floyd — Wish You Were Here
🍸 Co**se Reviver #2

👁️ The Alan Parsons Project — Eye in the Sky
🥃 Averna Old Fashioned

What makes this pairing even better?

Before forming The Alan Parsons Project, Alan Parsons worked as an engineer on Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon, creating a connection between these two legendary artists that goes far beyond the music.

So dim the lights, grab a cocktail, and settle in.

This isn’t background music.

This is an album night.
