Be Our Guest will serve wine and beer around dinnertime, according to the theme park reporter at the Orlando Sentinel.

Dang it.

Keep alcohol out of a family park! There are a million other places to drink.

I thought I would never see MK serve alcohol in my lifetime.

That's about Gaston's tavern. The reports we're seeing right now is that BoG will serve beer and wine during dinner only, and only inside the restaurant; you cannot leave the building with it.

Ahhh you're right my bad! I don't see an article on Orlando Sentinel saying this though.

I do see the twitter feeds however.

I can't be the only one who thinks Gaston's Tavern not serving beer but BoG serving it is hilarious right?

Being tweeted all over. I'm surprised, but it appears that I'm on record as noting that it could indeed happen.

I understand the purpose if they're really trying to make BOG the best restaurant in the park, but it wouldn't have been my choice.

I gotta think that might change also. But if not, I'm laughing with ya.

Fine by me.

Although I'm sure a few teetotalers and gingham dress wearers will soil their underthings about it and proclaim that the DEMON ALCOHOL has ruined their favorite Disney park.

Maybe throw in something about how the evils of drink transform men into laggards and women into slatterns.

Budweiser Clydesdales now making regular rounds up and down main street!

Since they have made that decision no use holding back now, its stupid to have it one place only ... add alcohol at all the places it makes sense ... Gaston's Tavern, Tortuga Tavern, and especially add coconut rum option to Dole Whips.

I only object on the grounds of tradition. Otherwise I have no problem with it.

As if I needed a reason to like Dole Whip any more...

I would never leave Adventure land if they added coconut rum!

Traditions are being broken every year it seems. I feel the same way, no problem with it at all.
