July 1st CANADA DAY COCKTAIL SPECIALS!!!

From L-R we have the Ceaser, Peach Fuzz, Swedish Berry, and Butter Tart Old Fashioned.

The Caeser is a fantastic take on the classic Catfish Bloody Mary, with the addition of Clamato juice taking it up another level. It's like when a new Neil Young album comes out and not only ticks all the boxes, but also pushes new boundaries.

The Peach Fuzz is as peachy as the name suggests, with a magical mix of the tart, sweet, and fruity all combining to make a pearler of a cocktail. These flavour tones are as diverse as the great career of Joni Mitchell. You never know what you'll get.

The Swedish Berry takes simplicity to a great new height with a flavour that's both sweet and nostalgic. Kind of like how Sloan's discography is both reminiscent of the 60's and 70's while just being utterly gorgeous in it's own right.

The Butter Tart Old Fashioned brings out the flavours rich and deep. It's like those first three Leonard Cohen albums on a rainy afternoon. Warms the soul while providing you with a world of depth to explore.

LIVE MUSIC THIS WEEK AT THE CATFISH.

Psychedelic surfabilly, spaghetti western tinged song craft, and clawhammer banjo tunes?

One would say that a fair degree of 'twang' has entered the chat at The Catfish and we wholeheartedly welcome it.
