I would like to contribute one of my beer cocktails! Here we have something very unique and refreshing and also its only one of three beer cocktails which will be featured on a new menu I’m designing in Hells Kitchen of New York City of which the menu literally has a beer cocktail category. Phewww...now that I said all of that, its my pleasure to introduce to you "The Bitter Viking". The heart of this tasty beer libation is Fernet Branca, then the smokiness of Mezcal comes into play along with fresh spicy ginger and the lime provides a nice sharp citrus layer and brings it all together. May you imbibe well
