Just in time for the start of the NFL season, the franchise of family sports pubs and restaurants, has debuted 10 signature cocktails. Notable new items include the Beam Lemon Tea, Signature Sangria, the Original Mudslide, an Apple Cider Martini and the Bloody 'O' Brady.

"We're taking the traditional drinks that everyone knows and loves and we're adding unique, delicious flavors to enhance the dining experience," said Chris Elliott, CEO of Beef 'O' Brady's. "We're introducing the new beverage line as part of our ongoing mission to perfect our menu and appeal to each patron and their preference."

The new beverage line comes on the heels of several menu innovations for Beef 'O' Brady's this year. In February 2011, the restaurant chain introduced 10 new menu offerings including their St. Louis-Style ribs with Sweet Baby Ray's® barbeque sauce, grilled shrimp available as a main dish or as a salad, a build your own burgers option and much more. In April 2011, Beef's launched a lunch menu designed to help busy customers get in and out without compromising variety, quality or value. Beef 'O' Brady's also switched to premium Angus burgers.

If Beef's system wide sales are any indication, then the renovated menu has been a hit with consumers across the country. Sales are up 2.2 percent.
