Meghan Kathleen: Willies Frozen Coffee cocktail is not to be missed! Oslo coffee + Bourbon make for a refreshing, delicious summertime drink.
Olga Strachna: Come here for a relaxing fun night with a few close friends and definitely get the frozen coffee or the mint bourbon iced tea. Oh and ask for peanuts if you're in a snack mood.
Garrison Price: Brings Austin to Willamsburg. My favorite bar is BK. Great juke box and fabulous live music that is not always country. Bourbon Sweet Tea makes for a nice Sunday afternoon, great Micheladas!

Cassel Kroll: On a winter's night, there's nothing better than a Mr. Howell. Smokey from the scotch, sweet from the maple syrup. Perfect.
The Wall Street Journal: Standout cocktails include the Mr. Howell ($9), with single-malt scotch, aged rum, lime juice, and maple syrup. Try it with a grilled cheese sandwich, which stacks up with the best in Brooklyn. Read more.
Ingrid Stenquist: Classy cocktail bar. A bit over-crowded for after midnight on a friday night. Kind of too cool for school. Get the 'Good Manners' cocktail with prosecco, bourbon, mint, cucumber & cane syrup.
