“Since October, patrons at Forsythia have been scribbling tales of shape-shifting dragons and forlorn astronauts inside a tiny notebook. They’re all, amazingly, part of the same story, one that comes with its own craft cocktail.” - Kristin Hunt from

Our cocktail The Story is only available at happy hour only at the bar. What started as a collaborative mini-novel in October is quickly reaching its last empty pages. Will you be the one to finish our first Story? Stop by, order the drink, and flex those story telling muscles. 🥃📕
