Star Wars Cocktails at Saison
Now!
Not a long time in the future, in a galaxy right here...
It is a period of thirst. Saison's bartenders, developing a limited-time-only cocktail menu, have won their first public testament to utter nerddom.
During this upcoming weekend, guests will manage to taste their way through the restaurant's ultimate offering, the STAR WARS COCKTAIL MENU, a list of roughly 10 beverages with enough alcohol to destroy an entire liver.

Launch Party and Costume Contest @ Triple Crossing
Costume Contests are lame? Uh, no... not when it's Star Wars. Best Costume will win a TCB gift certificate.
We'll also have Millennium Falcon Smash IPA on draft for one day only. Stop by and have a beer to celebrate the biggest movie of the decade then get out there and see it yourself!
Star Wars Cupcakes @ Carytown Cupcakes!
Friday
2015 will be remembered for a number of things, but few iconic moments will stand out as much as the upcoming release of the new Star Wars film: the Force Unleashed.
Not to be outdone, and all too familiar with movie themed cupcakes, Carytown Cupcakes is set to drop a series of Star Wars themed desserts with the likes of everyone from Darth Vader to Chewie represented in hand-sized cupcake versions.
Go See the Movie!
Tickets are still available at screens around the Richmond Region. Head to Fandango now to get your tickets.
