The Cask: A Whiskey Bar, formerly known as Game Room & Social Club (and Lizzy McCormack\u2019s before that<\/a>) until a 2025 Jon Taffer intervention and rebranding, hosts a premiere party this weekend of its own Bar Rescue episode this weekend complete with a celebrity bartender.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, March 1, the Taffer-overhauled bar downtown will screen the episode of Bar Rescue that chronicled its transformation from Game Room to whiskey joint on several of the televisions scattered throughout the venue. And Alli Torres from the show will be behind the bar slinging the spirits.<\/p>\n

The watch party at Cask on Orange Avenue happens at 9 p.m. on Sunday, March 1. The event is free but reservations are recommended through Tock<\/a> (also free).<\/p>\n

Taffer and his Bar Rescue team have somewhat of a mixed record of success here in Florida<\/a> with their rebrands and reboots, but we\u2019ll remain guardedly optimistic! <\/p>\n
