Do you like booze? Sure. We all do. Especially when bad things are going on in the world. Why, just look at Japan’s former finance minister. Nothing eases the pain of an economic crisis quite like a stiff drink and a xanax. So join CityBeat and friends in a happy hour toast to celebrate Swizzle, our annual guide to Cincinnati’s favorite bars and clubs. This year we’re celebrating in style at Bootsy’s on Walnut Street with music provided by local DJ Ruckus Roboticus, “the second hardest working man in show business.” So if music and CityBeat aren’t enough to get you to stop by, there will also be specials on all Heineken beers and complimentary hor d’oeuvres produced by Jeff Ruby.
