Best Bar Puns That Will Pour Out Laughs and Keep Spirits High

The first time I tried karaoke at a bar, I thought the crowd would boo, but they actually cheered when I dropped the mic and spilled half my drink. To recover, I shouted out bar puns like a stand up comic with beer foam as a mustache. The bartender gave me free peanuts as a sympathy prize, and I took it as a booking contract.
Ever since then, I cannot walk into a pub without testing new material on coasters and napkins. Turns out the only thing better than a happy hour is a pun that makes the whole place laugh louder than the jukebox.
