Did you know that there are over 1,700 mixed drink recipes? Probably not, because I just made up that number, but chances are that you’ve never heard of obscure drinks like, Sex with an Alligator, Dead Nazi or Michael Moros Detroit Boy. You probably don’t know how to make them either, so it’s a good thing we have educated and skilled bartenders to broaden our horizons and our palates.

This Sunday at 7pm, the Tiger Tail will feature an Iron Bartender event, with Seattle’s top bartending studs: Mike McSorley of TiniBigs and Majorie and Dallas Taylor of ToST Lounge, dueling for the title of Master of the Universe. Competing bartenders will have three 7-minute and two 15-minute sessions to create their uniquely styled concoction of randomly selected cocktails that will be taste-tested by the Washington Liquor Control Board. I kid! But wouldn’t that be hilariously awesome? The real judges are renowned author AJ Rathbun, Kelly O (writer for the Stranger’s “Drunk of the Week” column), and Liberty owner, Andrew Friedman. They promise to be just as dogmatic and oppressive as the WSLCB.  Come join in on the fun, debauchery, and cocktail snobbery.
