varied cocktails. The bar, 45 feet long, made of maple and cherry has a unique design and is open from 11 a.m. until 1 a.m. Take for example the signature drink, `Pickled Swizzle' which is a blending of pineapple and orange infused Bacardi Rums mixed with fruit juices.

A few of the others include: `The Bellini' which is pineapple infused Bacardi rum, peach schnapps, peach nectar and champagne and `The Emerald City' composed of vodka, melon liqueur and lime juice.

`The West Indies and Bermuda Illustrated Book of 1912' says of the J.E.

Lightbourn building: "In their commodious premises on Front Street may always be seen a stock of liquors that comprises most of the best brands on the market. Cool, dark recesses hold fragrant spirits, mellow with age that are referred to when the aroma and flavour of the choicest whiskey, brandy, rum, and gins are discussed.'' At the Pickled Onion, on the first floor of the building, the same tradition is preserved.

The Pickled Onion has carefully selected only the best ales served in a frozen glass such as: McEwans Scottish Lager, Watney's Red Barrel, Newcastle Brown and Murphy's Irish Stout at $5 per pint.

Many California wines, and others from Chile, France, Italy, and Australia, are available by the glass. There are white and red wines, champagnes and ports.

You might like to try the table wine served like whiskey was in days gone by (measured by the finger) in a tumbler. They measure the amount you drink with the `finger stick' and you will only pay for what you consume! A big tumbler measuring one finger will be 6 oz. at $3.95, 2 fingers will be 12 oz. at $7.95. and so forth.
