Quote: We went early to grab a couple of drinks before exploring the town. However, our exploration was limited due to the strength of the Pusser drinks and the ease in which they go down.

The first drink that we all ordered was a Painkiller; pineapple and orange juice with an ass load of rum and some nutmeg on top. There are different levels of Painkillers from 1 to 4 which refers to ounces of rum in the drink, (which I didn't know at the time) and each is more deadly than the last. Since Annapolis is a naval town, the parties are never ending and are everywhere.

As the Painkillers started to take hold, my girlfriend and my brother decided to switch to a different drink called the Grog, and that is exactly what it does to you the next day. This drink is nothing but water, brown sugar, lime, and rum, and a lot of rum. So beware!

As the night rolled on, we became more comfortable and less mobile. The crowds at Pusser's multiplied by the hundreds in what seemed to be a matter of minutes. The outside deck was loaded with people to the point where they just couldn't anyone else out there. Then, without notice, the place cleared out and we were some of the only people there. It happened so fast it seemed almost rehearsed and planned.

So, if you find yourself in Downtown Annapolis, head over to the Marriott Hotel and check out Pusser. It's right there on the waterfront. The drinks are strong, the prices are decent, and the ambience is great, with Caribbean music playing constantly throughout the night. It is definitely a Caribbean feel in a historic town. Try it out!
