Knowing the nose of a vintage Bordeaux or how the dry spell in Italy affected this year's grape harvest isn't a hobby for everyone. But even if you prefer a nice shot-and-a-beer combo over the latest Côtes du Rhône, Swing in Olympia has you covered. During Swing's daily Lush Rush from 4 - 6 p.m., patrons can find deals on anything with or without a cork. Cocktails for $5 and $2 Beer of the Day Specials make up the heart of the menu. Of course, Swing offers plenty of wine specials, too. For those concerned with that pesky dry spell.
