Hey Tom, I'm very sorry to hear that. It sounds like we made a mistake with your drinks. I've also had versions at various places and I would describe our recipes as similar, so I'm not sure what happened. I'm guessing our bartender mixed up the tins and you ended up portions of each of the recipes in each drink, which would definitely be weird. I will look you up and get you a refund. I'd be grateful for the opportunity to serve you again sometime, and get the drinks right. I'm proud of our recipes for these classics, and I'm disappointed something went off the rails here. Respectfully, Neal, Owner edit: hey Tom, I'm having a hard time finding your transaction searching your name in our system. If you could email me at [email protected] I'd like to get you a refund.
