Can’t make it for the dinner? Not to worry, Againn hosts a happy hour every Monday through Thursday from 4:00 to 7:00 pm with $5 specials on selected food and beverage items. The happy hour menu changes weekly, but the standard beer list offers many options for your drinking pleasure, including many draft selections from Ireland, Scotland, England, Germany and Belgium. And even a few from the good ole U.S. of A.
