Eclectic gastropub with vegan options, whiskey, brunch & patio
"In Royal Oak, Ale Mary’s Beer Hall is running a seasonal takeover called Jingle from December 1 through December 31 where the halls are decked with glittering yuletide decor and peppermint-soaked cocktails served in holiday mugs; owner Nick Ritts told me the pop-up is a more formalized follow-up to the intense holiday decorating his other bar has done since 2004, and the menu promises drinks like the Yuletide Toddy (vodka, cranberry puree, lime juice, ginger beer, fresh cranberries) and the Naughty Santa Hot Cocoa (hot cocoa, peppermint schnapps, salted caramel Kahlua, whipped cream, candy cane garnish), five vegan-friendly cocktails, plates of Christmas cookies for $10, and recommends RSVPing by texting 411669." - Eater Staff

"Ale Mary’s Beer Hall transforms into Jingle, a holiday bar takeover with a How the Grinch Stole Christmas theme and an updated menu of cocktails, including vegan and non-vegan Grinch cookies. Opens Friday, November 29." - Brenna Houck
