Weekend Honcho Bar, Los Altos Continued from previous page
The low-proof Malarkey cocktail served at Honcho Bar is essentially a Manhattan made with sherry instead of bourbon, said owner Rod Newman. This version of the cocktail — sherry, sweet vermouth and bitters — is boozy and complex, but also smooth due to the lower alcohol content of the sherry. Its versatility means it can be enjoyed with a light snack before dinner — think Marcona almonds or cashews — or as a digestif after a big feast. “Generally speaking, sherry and vermouth are misunderstood and under-represented stateside,” Newman said. “Thankfully, due to the surge of craft cocktail bar programs throughout the country, these and many other offerings have
populated our drink menus.” Here are Newman’s recommended ingredients: 3 ounces Hidalgo Faraon Olorosso Sherry 2 ounces La Quintinye Vermouth Rouge (French sweet red Vermouth fortified with Cognac) 3-4 dashes Angostura bitters 1. Fill a mixing glass with ice and stir the above ingredients with a bar spoon for 10 seconds. 2. Using a cocktail strainer, cover the mixing glass and pour the mixture into a chilled martini or stemmed coupe glass (a stemmed champagne saucer). 3. Either garnish with Luxardo maraschino cherries skewered on a pick, or add a twist of an orange peeled from the rind using a citrus or vegetable peeler.

The “Old Greg” cocktail is a spin on the classic Old Fashioned, using rum rather than whiskey.
Quality Bourbons and Barbecue (QBB), Mountain View
The Boulevardier cocktail is typically made with whisky, sweet vermouth, and Campari, giving it a balance of sweet and bitter flavors. QBB adds an orange peel garnish to its version for a fresh fall scent, said
co-owner Jon Andino. The Boulevardier pairs well with barbecue or any other heavy meal. “The bold flavors need something with bold flavors to match the intensity,” Andino said. Here’s how they mix it up at QBB:
Bird Dog, Palo Alto
Need an excuse to have some chocolate with your after-work cocktail? Try the Old Greg, recommends Katherine Harper, the manager of Bird Dog. This one will pair well, so go ahead and indulge, she said. This cocktail is Bird Dog’s take on the classic Old Fashioned, which is typically made by muddling sugar and bitters with whiskey. Bird Dog’s version uses anejo rum rather than whiskey. Harper said the bittersweet cocktail shares characteristics similar to amaro, the thick after-dinner Italian liqueur known for its herbal qualities. Here’s how they mix it up at Bird Dog: Saffron tincture (1 large pinch
1 ounce whiskey (Andino prefers bourbon or rye) 1 ounce Carpano Antica Sweet Vermouth 1/2 ounce Campari 1/2 ounce Gran Clasico 1 orange peel garnish 1. Stir the above ingredients with ice. 2. Strain, crease orange peel into a glass and serve. saffron threads and 1/4 cup of high-proof vodka) 2 ounces Ron Zacapa Centenario (or any aged rum) 1/4 ounce Demerara simple syrup ( made with 1:1 ratio hot water to Demerara sugar) 2 dashes Peychaud’s bitters 2 dashes Angostura bitters 1. To create the saffron tincture, combine the saffron and vodka in a small jar and let it sit for at least 24 hours, preferably three to five days. After straining, pour the mix into a bottle with a dropper. 2. Rinse the prepared saffron tincture in a glass by adding a few drops into the glass, swirling and dumping out the excess. In the same glass, stir the rest of the ingredients with ice. 3. Serve with an orange twist. V

‘Alter’ boy GLOOMY DRAMA ‘BOY ERASED’ DEPICTS SO-CALLED ‘GAY CONVERSION THERAPY’ 001/2 (Aquarius, Century 20) The new drama “Boy Erased” — based on a true story of an American gay teen suffering through so-called “gay conversion therapy” — has plenty of important pieces in place: intriguing source material, a tested writerdirector-actor-producer in Joel Edgerton (“The Gift”) and a cast of Oscar winners and nominees (Nicole Kidman, Russell Crowe and Lucas Hedges). Above all, it has its heart in the right place, on the side of truth, social justice and human dignity. Because of all that, Edgerton has a head start with most viewers, but despite all that, “Boy Erased” never quite coalesces into the deeply moving and insightful film its pedigree seems to promise. Hedges (“Manchester by the Sea”) stars as Arkansas teenager Jared Eamons, who shares nearly every particular with author Garrard Conley outside of his name. As he heads off to college,
this only child of Baptist parents struggles with his homosexuality. Matters only intensify when a horrifying sexual encounter sets off a chain reaction, prompting an untimely outing to father Marshall (Crowe) and mother Nancy (Kidman), and a plane ride to a faith-based program determined to harass the gay right out of the young man. That’s the God-fearing mission of Victor Sykes (Edgerton, slyly effective), who positions himself as the tough-loving Svengali of a resistant cult. What follows is an incidentdriven narrative that hits its marks in showing the absurdities and horrors of such programs while not delving very deeply into the psychology of its characters. Edgerton’s script repeatedly raises questions (about what’s going through the characters’ minds or the complexities of their struggles) that it doesn’t

Lucas Hedges and Troye Sivan star in the gloomy drama “Boy Erased.”
seem very interested in answering. The protagonist’s name change and a policy of tiptoeing when it comes to devotional disagreement evince an abundance of caution. Jared’s religious beliefs remain murky throughout, with only an opening narration to suggest that, despite his trials, he remains a believer (“I wish none of this had ever happened. But sometimes, I thank God that it did”). The movie’s ace in the hole, then, is its cast of stars, including
independent gay filmmaker Xavier Dolan and gay pop star Troye Sivan playing two of Jared’s peers in the program. In her small but warmly tender role, Kidman seems on hand to do a good deed, while Crowe — as the conflicted preacher whose deeply held beliefs threaten his family unity — shares the film’s most riveting scene with Hedges, a climactic negotiation of conditional love. Above all, the film works to the extent that it does on the shoulders of Hedges, who works
mightily to fill in the script’s gaps with his moody and occasionally explosive turn. The film, which shines a light into the shadows of these programs where tens of thousands of LGBTQ people still languish, ironically appropriates a line from one of Marshall’s sermons: “Let your light shine!” Rated R for sexual content including an assault, some language and brief drug use. One hour, 54 minutes. — Peter Canavese
