March 3, 2021 | Kindsey Bernhard

Most people’s experience with sake is at the Hibachi grill when the chef sprays it into your mouth from three feet away. You either nail it or you leave the restaurant with sake all over your shirt.

But such is not the case with West 6th’s Pay it Forward Cocoa Porter.
