  PERK ALERTMaxim, Camping with Butlers and More
Montana. Land of bison, Ted Turner and the most luxurious camping you’ve ever experienced—and we’re
getting you 30% off at Paws Up, a resort ranch replete with decked-out tents and butlers. We’re
also hooking you up with a year of Maxim for $8 and 35% off pleasure devices from Jimmyjane.
 SEVENTH HEAVENHalf-Smoke and a Stout for $7
Bourbon Steak isn’t just giving you a deal, they’re giving you a choice: a Red Apron half-smoke, topped
with either sauerkraut and spicy ketchup onions or venison chili and charred jalapeño Cheez Whiz. They’ll
throw in a stout, too. Which is really the only sensible choice.
  PUCKERThe New Hangover Cure: Pickle Espresso
Come Saturday morning, you’ll probably need coffee. Also, electrolytes (read: salt). Enter Love Potion
Number Brine, a devilish new concoction from Peregrine Espresso and local pickle-monger Gordy’s
Pickle Jar. In it, sweet pickle brine meets espresso, milk and simple syrup. And your hangover meets its
match.
  ON RECORDSpinning Vinyl for Abe
It’s Abe’s birthday on Sunday, so we think it’s time to engage in that most American of pursuits:
flipping through old dusty records in a
comedy club while local DJs wail away all afternoon. No word on a Daniel Day-Lewis appearance.
  PX I LOVE YOUFive Aphrodisiac Cocktails at PX
Old Town’s upstairs speakeasy is normally closed Tuesdays, but they’re taking reservations for V-Day
with a five-course cocktail tasting for couples, focusing on aphrodisiac ingredients like cardamom and
chocolate. And lots of that notorious aphrodisiac, champagne.
 THE OTHER HALFAnti-Valentine’s Day Party at Pilar
Of course, not everything can be chocolate, roses and Barry White. Should you find yourself unattached (or
just looking for those who are unattached), Bar Pilar is pouring bitter cocktails all night long over an
array of breakup songs. Probably not all by Ryan Adams.
