Beach Basil Ginger, Beach Chalet

After a 5+ hour trip to San Francisco Airport earlier in the day, I was looking for a place for a quick happy hour stop between the end of a 4pm and 6pm in the Outer Sunset. I decided to take a drive down to The Beach Chalet Brewery & Restaurant which is located along Ocean Beach since at that time, parking would not be an issue. The Beach Chalet cocktail menu is divided into two categories: Beach Chalet Cocktails ($9) and Premium House Cocktails ($11).  I didn't even look at the happy hour menu when  I saw the Beach Basil Ginger cocktail in the premium house cocktail section and knew that's what I needed.
Since it wasn't too busy during happy hour, the bartender poured the drink at my table.  The glass arrived with only a leaf of basil.  He then poured the aromatic drink over the basil. The Beach Basil Ginger is made with St. Germain, Grey Goose, basil leaves, ginger syrup and lime juice.  With the subtle sweetness from the St. Germain and ginger syrup, constant mild kick of ginger from the syrup, and the one two combination of fragrance from the muddled basil and ginger syrup, this cocktail stimulates your senses. It may have been even more enjoyable since this cocktail is only $9 during happy hour.  The Beach Chalet has two happy hours Monday through Friday called 3-6-9.  The first happy hour is from 3-6 and the second is from 9 to closing.
