Where the wine flows and the tea spills
Tune in to First Gen Sister’s PourCast,
where we sip, spill, and sort through the chaos to find you real happy hour gems.
Happy Hour Discoveries
We do the leg work (and the sip work)—all in the name of research, of course. We brave the bar stools, test the tacos, and toast the cocktails across the Twin Cities so you don’t have to. Then we spill the tea… or the tequila. You're welcome. 😉
This week’s contender? A new spot vying for our coveted Sister’s Stamp—if it dazzles us with an 8 or higher on our PourScore scale. (It’s highly scientific. Wildly biased. Fueled by cocktails and vibes.)
Wonderin’ what a PourScore is, are ya? Only the finest measure of craic, cocktails, and chaos.
It’s our all-in-one vibe check. We don’t just rate the drinks—we rate the whole shebang. Because when you’re First Gen Sisters with strong opinions and even stronger pours, the ambiance better be serving. If the cocktails are great but the vibes are off? That’s a no from us, Sally.
The PourScore categories:
✨ Barstool Breakdown – Are the seats cute and kind to our tailbones? Is the bartender giving “welcome home” or “why are you here” energy?
🎉 Scene & Sip – Is the crowd vibing or are we surrounded by people who look like they’re still mad about Y2K?
📺 Sports Scene – Can we actually see the game, or are we watching it reflected in a soup spoon?
🚻 The Girl’s Room – Clean enough to selfie in? Bonus points for good lighting and zero horror movie vibes.
💸 The Tab Recap – Are the Happy Hour specials worth the hype, or did we just pay $16 for a thimble of hummus and a stale breadstick?
We’re here to help you avoid the duds and discover the gems—because life’s too short for sticky menus, lukewarm wine, and bathrooms that require a hazmat suit.
