The Ice Cream Bar Gets Beer/Wine License, Hello Angostura Phosphate!
August 20, 2012
The Ice Cream Bar in San Francisco, a real soda bar with shakes and sodas made of things like candy cap mushrooms, sassafras root beer, and chicory coffee, has been granted a beer and wine license.
This Friday August 24th they'll debut the new menu with some boozy drinks. Below is the menu. The drinks will be in the $9-$14 dollar range.
Menu consultant Russell Davis says with the big pour of bitters in the Angostura Phosphate, he's hoping they'll become the top Angostura account in the city.

They can pour Angostura on a beer and wine license?

I wouldn't have thought so as Angostura is technically unpalatable and you don't need a beer/wine license to sell it, but maybe I'm wrong.

There is a movie theatre close to me that sells wine and beer and happens to have ice cream at the stand next to that. I love getting sherbet and cheap wine for the film. My friend think I am crazy but maybe I am not!
