They told Global News the aim is to give people who do not drink alcohol the full bar experience and the socializing and mixing that goes along with it.
So, a juice bar? But with a different gimmick?
Not really it seems:
Racquel Foran and Jim O’Connor are preparing to open Bevees, a store and lounge that will offer more than 300 types of booze-free products, which will include beer, wine, spirits, liquors and pre-mixed mocktails.
So bar atmosphere and mock/no-alc beers with no hangover. As a regular drinker, sounds like a cool idea actually. I drink because of the atmosphere /social setting /pressure and not necessarily the alcohol.
Most bars have no alc options but they’re often not great, look forward to seeing how they do.
I'm not big on drinking but TBH the cost of things is also one of the big factors in people not going out so much. I wonder how the mocktails will compare?
It's an interesting idea but I just wish regular bars would offer more and better non alcoholic options.
The only place I go that has an extensive good "mocktail" lost charges like $15 a piece for what boils down to a fancy tiny juice glass. I completely understand why the idea isn't taking off.
My common sense is gonna kick in real fast. Probably after my first trip to the bathroom.
I predict failure. I hope I am wrong. The idea of being in a bar sober is not appealing.
