DC Officials Ban Drink
You will no longer be able to order a Marion Berry's Dirty Asian Summer Punch from The Pug
Walk into The Pug today, and you can order a beer or a shot, but you can no longer order "Marion Berry's Dirty Asian Summer Punch."
The punch, a fruity vodka concoction, was whipped up by the H Street NE bar's owner, Tony Tomelden, as an admittedly crude but satirical tribute to D.C. Council member Marion Barry's controversial comments this year criticizing Asian shop owners and Filipino nurses. "The Ward 8 Special," he called it.
