With the dog days ahead of us, the team at Annex knew we needed to concoct something that encapsulated all of our favorite summertime survival beverages. Iced tea (check), lemonade (check), gin (check), and so was born the Your Majesty.  We mix one of our favorite spirits, Breukelen Glorious Gin with orange liqueur, earl grey syrup, and lemon juice to create one seriously refreshing cocktail.  A drink designed to appeal to everyone (royal pedigree not required).

And of course, we’d be remiss not to mention our selection of summer draft beers. Our lineup changes regularly, so enjoy a pint from the list below before we’re on to the next keg!

City Slickers IPA – Other Half
You don’t have to wait in line outside of the brewery to get your hands on a pint of this beer brewed with prickly pear from the IPA master’s at Gowanus’ own Other Half Brewing Co.

Kirsch Gose – Victory Brewing Co.
This sour cherry beer blends the right amount of tart and sweet. A delicious and approachable Gose.

Rubaeus Nitro – Founders Brewing Co.
Infused with nitrogen for a softer mouthfeel, this pale ale brewed with raspberries is exactly what the doctor ordered for mid-July heat.

Wild Maine yeast fermented cider with the addition of cascade hops to turn an IPA lover into a cider drinker in no time.
