Dear-Mom

Come Drink Pickle Backs with Me on Wednesdays at Dear Mom!!

Recently I started bartending at Dear Mom on Wednesday nights. I do this because a) it’s fun b) I really need the money (yes I’m still broke) and c) because Jay and Oliver are the shit! The fellas have given me some leeway to do cool stuff on my night, so I’m bringing an East Coast favorite to The Mission. San Francisco, I’d like to introduce you to the Pickle Back.
