Lost Creek Crush

Downtown Cocktail Room, $9

It’s 107 degrees out, my eyes are sweating, and the very thought of clothing makes me want to cry. Time for a trip down to DCR for George Austin Sproule’s summer crowd-pleaser, the Lost Creek Crush, which I’ve seen him set down at least twice in front of people who said they “hate the taste of alcohol.” Consider them converted. See it this week on 702.tv!
