Let’s get fizzical.

There’s no shortage of reasons to pour out the bubbly here. Some prefer it straight, others prefer it in a mimosa. Whatever way you like it, Oct. 19 is your day.

Brennan’s is taking it to another level, with champagne sabering every hour on the hour. If you’re confused about what that is, a staff member comes out and pops the top off of the bottle with a sword. Yes, a sword.

They’re also offering a flight of different champagnes during breakfast and lunch and tastings in the courtyard.

Champagne saberingCheers!
