<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>SIX NATIONS RUGBY &#8211; NEW VIEWING SCHEDULE</strong></p>
<p>Alright! So: we&#8217;ve had competing tales of what is and is not available for regular US viewing of the Six Nations Rugby tournament. What we&#8217;ve found is that not all matches will be open for us to show&#8230;but we will show one match per week.</p>
<p>Join us Saturday at 11:00 am for one of the tournament highlights:<br />
England vs. Scotland</p>
<p>England has rebuilt its squad since the World Cup but has suffered some injuries. Scotland has shown repeated improvement and may finally pose a legitimate threat in the Six Nations. Watch these two old rivals square off here on the big screen (keeping in mind the Scottish independence question, if you&#8217;d like an extra stake for the fanfare!).</p>
<p>Tune in soon for information on future match ups during this nearly two-month tournament.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>SCOTCH EGGS &amp; SAUSAGE ROLLS<br />
FOR THE SUPERBOWL</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://merlinsrest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Superbowl.png"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3106" title="Superbowl" src="http://merlinsrest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Superbowl.png" alt="" width="200" height="153" /></a>No need to belabor the point! You know the Super Bowl takes place this Sunday, early evening. And you know we&#8217;ll be watching here on the big screen. But we also know that some of you host Super Bowl parties. If that&#8217;s the case:</p>
<p>Why not order a dozen scotch eggs for your party or some delicious sausage rolls!?</p>
<p>Call us (+1 612 216 2419) and place your order!</p>

Thursday night music will feature two local gems: <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong><a href="http://merlinsrest.com/2012/01/24/thursday-night-music-shaun-daniel-neal-swanger/"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Shaun Daniel and Neal Swanger</span></a></strong></span>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>RABBIE BURNS NIGHT RETURNS!</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://merlinsrest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/RabbieBurns.png"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3102" title="RabbieBurns" src="http://merlinsrest.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/RabbieBurns.png" alt="" width="230" height="296" /></a>Every year we celebrate the life of Robert Burns&#8211;Scotland&#8217;s Bard. He&#8217;s the Ploughman Poet, Robden of Solway Firth, the Bard of Ayrshire. He&#8217;s Scotland&#8217;s favorite son. And we honor him with a traditional party: a Haggis supper (seriously), bag pipers, possibly a recitation or two with yer man Bill Watkins, etc.</p>
<p>Try a dram from history too with single malts and such from licensed distilleries that were founded during the life of Rabbie (1759-1796): Balblair, Bowmore, Littlemill, Oban and Strathisla. These time-tested, revered bottles are all available at Merlins Rest&#8230;as are more than 150 other single malts and blended whiskys.</p>
<p>So join us for a special Friday Night Kilt Night in honor of Robert Burns! It&#8217;s also just a fantastic way to usher in your weekend&#8230;.</p>
