Venice Beach bar the Whaler announces shocking…
A historic Venice Beach bar shocked prospects after saying it was no longer serving alcohol, irritating thirsty regulars of the longtime watering gap.
The Venice Whaler, situated close to the well-known Venice Fishing Pier, posted a message on Friday about the service change while encouraging prospects to assist the booze-less business.
“We’re temporarily not serving alcohol, but our famous burgers, pizza, and good vibes are still here!” a post on the institution’s Instagram account read.

“Behind every Whaler memory is a team that makes it happen. Come grab a bite, bring your friends, and help keep our staff working and our doors open,” they added.
The Whaler, which also has a location in Santa Monica, touts itself as “making locals feel like they’re ‘always on vacay’, since 1944,” according to its web site.

“Venice Whaler without alcohol is like a strip club without strippers,” one wrote.
“No wonder everywhere is closing and struggling. And if they can’t bring in money for alcohol, this place will most likely be another one closing,” another added.
“Outta beer, outta here!” a third chimed in.

“Such a shame. We need a new mayor and a city council that cares,” yet another wrote.
The California Post contacted the Whaler and the Department of liquoric Beverage Control for remark.
