DARKHORSE HAPPY HOUR

Posted on February 25

Some are wondering what the Darkhorse 1/2 price Happy Hour is about. Half-price means a $2.25 price tag for pints of Guinness, Troeg's Nugget Nectar, Stone IPA, Otto's Red Mo, Hoegaarden, Stella Artois, Woodchuck Amber Cider, and more. It means $3.50 for Tonto's Demise, Kansas City Ice Water, and all of our other specialty drinks. Pay more, but get much, much more. We think the Darkhorse Happy Hour is the best value in town.
