    Mullen’s on the North Shore offers a .99 cent beer every single Friday from 5p – 7p. Such a deal…

  • cheap beer lover

    Loose Moose Saloon on Brownsville Road in Pleasant Hills offers $2 beers (including imports and expensive domestics) 4-6 P.M Monday through Friday. These prices can’t be beat for these beers. Also $1.00 half pound burgers on Tuesdays (delicious) and 6 free wings every Thursday. (also delicious)
