Are you ready for summertime in a glass? Yes? GREAT! Then prepare your thirsty mouth for the return of the Portland Mercury‘s HIGHBALL Week! That’s correct: a WHOLE WEEK (May 25-31) of beautifully crafted, unique cocktails for only $10 each!
We’ve teamed up with 30 of the finest bartenders in Portland—along with our cocktail-lovin’ pals at Jim Beam—to bring you this extravaganza of boozy concoctions. To help make Highball Week EVEN BETTER, our friends at the locally-owned Radio Cab are offering Highball Week participants a safe and reliable transportation option with $5 off ride coupons. Each Highball location will have a limited amount of Cab Cash; snag one while you can! Get your Highball Week Pass now and check in to Highball Week bar and restaurant locations for a chance to win prizes from the Mercury and our sponsors.
Oh! And remember to tip your bartenders well for good luck.
So, are you ready for HIGHBALL? Great! Just remember a few friendly rules:
• Drink responsibly! This goes without saying, but because we love you and don’t want you to die, PLEASE be safe and smart with your Highball consumption—and NEVER drink and drive. Download the Radio Cab app or call to book a ride!
• Be patient! We all need a drink (or 10) right now. But so do our friends, neighbors, and sworn enemies! So if a Highball bar is slammed, or if they run out of those little umbrellas? Be cool—it’ll all get sorted soon enough!
• Tip your bartenders, and order food! Sure, the best part of Highball are those $10 drinks… but each Highball location also has great food, and their talented bartenders will be working hard to keep those craft cocktails pouring! So relax, grab a bite, and let your bartenders and waitstaff know how much you appreciate ‘em!
So what are you waiting for? Peep all those cool, drool-worthy drinks here, and start plotting your course for the most thirst-quenching week of the year: the Mercury’s HIGHBALL! Coming at you May 25-31!
Don’t lowball… HIGHBALL! 🍸
