PB&G will debut its special bourbon in partnership with Four Roses Distillery in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, with the traditional Jessie’s Mint Julep for $8.

Extra Derby Party Fun
To attend a Derby party, you have to get in the spirit with the right attire and doing so will pay off even if your bets on the ponies don’t.
- Patrons sporting a Derby hat will receive $10 off their bill.
- A $20 “Pick the Winner” credit will be awarded to the attendee who successfully selects the winning horse, to use toward a future visit to PB&G.
- For a photo finish to the day, the patron wearing the best Derby hat chosen by the restaurant staff will win a cooking class with Chef Gerald Sombright, as well as a $50 credit for a future visit to PB&G.
