  The Cincinnati Bar Revolution

Slowly emerging in Cincinnati, a line of no-nonsense bartenders are looking to eradicate the overly-hyped, dumbed-down cocktails and flavorless combinations that have become so prevalent today. Meet Rommel Wells.

Forget the green beer (its gross anyway), and get thyself to some St. Patrick's Day activities this weekend. Head to Arnold's or Fountain Square for some Irish fun, or hit the annual St. Patrick's Day parade. As always, feel free to add your own events in the comments, and enjoy your weekend!

There are a few weekends every year we look forward to in child-like anticipation. MidPoint weekend, Oktoberfest weekend, and yes Bockfest weekend. This weekend's Bockfest celebrations remind us that spring is around the bend, and celebration is needed. But, even if you don't get your kicks from Bock beer, there is plenty to do around this city this weekend. As always, feel free to leave your events in the comments, and enjoy your weekend!

Rommel-Wells-1.jpgSlowly emerging in Cincinnati, a line of no-nonsense bartenders are looking to eradicate the overly-hyped, dumbed-down cocktails and flavorless combinations that have become so prevalent today. You won't, for example, find a Strawberry Daiquiri at Rookwood Bar and Restaurant, where Rommel Wells is mixing serious, handcrafted drinks.

He is, so to speak, raising the bar with his nod to classic, respectable beverages filtered through his own creative lens. In a world of noisy, drink-slinging madness, Wells breathes life into the bar experience.

Cafe de Wheels, the burger truck taking Downtown and Clifton by storm has added another tool in its arsenal, Thursday afternoon Segway deliveries in and around Downtown.

In case you haven't noticed, its been cold. Like really cold. And, although my hunger for the best burger downtown is nearly crippling, so is the 16 block roundtrip walk for Cafe de Wheels from my office during my lunch break.

Here at BuyCincy, its our mission to talk about some of the things that make Cincinnati unique. And, well, it doesn't get any more unique than the annual Bockfest Sausage Queen Competition. The winner of the gender-neutral competition is bestowed the honor of leading one of Cincinnati's most unconventional parades, the Bockfest kickoff from Arnold's bar to Bockfest Hall in OTR. 

Interested in the prestige that goes along with being Bockfest Queen? You have three more chances to qualify for the Bockfest Queen finals, starting with tomorrow's qualifying round at Arnold's.

After a long wait, Over-the-Rhine's newest restaurant has set an official opening date. Senate, located on Vine St. in the Gateway Quarter, will open Feb. 19th according to their Facebook page. The restaurant will serve gourmet street food (think super-fancy hot dogs and lobster BLTs) and specialize in craft cocktails. We're really excited to see how this concept (and this awesome location) turns out.
