Spokane: Where the drinking is easy

Tune in tonight for the Spokane episode of “Drinking Made Easy” on HDNet.

Comedian Zane Lamprey and “stunt drinker” Steve McKenna check out libations at Steam Plant Brewing Co. and Pub (formerly Coeur d'Alene Brewing Co. at the Steam Plant Grill) where they try the Huckleberry Beertini. They also try the Monkey Gland at Bon Bon and sample the Blueberry Creme Ale at Northern Lights Brewing Co.

They also stop in to Dry Fly Distilling, Steelhead Bar and Grill (where McKenna pours a shot from a balcony above the bar into McKenna's open mouth) and the Baby Bar.

Easy.

The HDNet series features Lamprey and “stunt drinker” McKenna traveling the U.S. in search of local drinks and drinking customs, according to a news release. The show features Monterey, Calif., Miami and Tampa, Fla., Cape Cod, Washington D.C., Seattle, Santa Barbara, Calif., Aspen, Colo., and other cities.

“Drinking Made Easy, Spokane” airs on HDNet tonight at 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. It also runs again on Saturday at 2 p.m.
