Dram, a Cocktail Bar on 177 S. 4th Street in Williamsburg - Dim Lighting, Dark Wood, Low-Slung Couches - Closed

[Tweaked]

Lipstick lesbians sipping cocktails next to Narragansett-drinking Lumbersexuals.  Dim lighting, dark wood, low slung couches, big glass windows overlooking the street, and a scent that I would describe as Dune Spice.  Cocktails come with a kick and a friendly vibe.  I suspect that late night could get a little Williamsburgy, but early in the evening an enjoyable place to meet up with friends before heading out to dinner.

Like, "Frank Herbert Dune" Spice? (Not to be confused with Posh Spice?)

Martin, this is the *first* time I've ever accused you of being a geek.

Exactly like Frank Herbert Dune Spice - bitter cinnamon.  The first thing I noticed when walking into Dram was a sharp scent, kind of clove/cinnamon...and not a warm baking scent, but perhaps a little leathery.

Dune Spice seemed to fit the bill.

It appears to have closed earlier this year.

Yes, and I'm having a lot of trouble finding out when.

More importantly is the question of whether or not Tweaked actually read (and finished) "Dune" - one of the most arduous and miserably complicated books I have ever read (probably on my Top 5 list, and I've read some real back-breakers).
