The Local is one of those neighborhood spots that people just know has a Bloody Mary—even if it’s not actually listed on the cocktail menu. And in this case, that assumption pays off.
Their Bloody comes in a full pint glass and includes a beer chaser of your choice, which is always a strong start. It’s garnished with all the essentials: a lemon-lime wedge, pickle, olive, cheese, and a beef stick—nothing over-the-top, but everything you want in a classic Wisconsin Bloody.
Interestingly, it’s not featured on their cocktail list, despite the rest of their drinks sitting around the $8 mark. So while I didn’t get an official price or confirmation on the mix or vodka used, it’s fair to assume this one falls right in line with the rest of their menu.
Flavor-wise, this is a straightforward, easy-drinking Bloody. It doesn’t try to do anything flashy, but it delivers a solid, familiar profile that works well whether you’re there for brunch or just stopping in.
