Each week, we bring you our top picks for the best places to booze on the cheap in SF.

1. Bonny Doon Wine Tasting: Bonny Doon's Randall Grahm, author of the recently acclaimed memoir Been Doon So Long, is the star of Coda's Meet the Winemaker Happy Hour this Thursday. Guests can sample a variety of vintages from the Doon catalog for free as they get doon to the sounds of DJ Jacob Pena as they compete to come up with the best "doon"/"down" puns. (Thursday, June 24, 5:30-7:30 pm, at Coda, 1710 Mission St., Mission.)

2. Jippidy Happy Hour at Eve: The business-video website Jippidy is teaming up with the foodie adventure squad Battledish to host a happy hour at SOMA's swank Eve Lounge. From 5-6 pm, beers are $2 and cocktails are $3; from 6-9, any drink is $2 off. If you're really feeling penniless, become a fan of Jippidy on Facebook, print out the evidence of your fandom, and your first drink from 5-6 is on them. (Thursday, June 24, 5-9 pm, at Eve Lounge, 575 Howard St., SOMA.)

3. Cheap Pride Drinks at Q Bar: Pride is this weekend, and happening LGBT folk who like to dance can often be found at the Q Bar in the Castro. They're maintaining their solid happy hour for the occasion: weekdays from 4 to 9 and weekends from 2 to 9, wells are $2.50, calls are $3.50, shots of Jager, Jameson, and Sauza are $3, and draft microbrews are $3.

4. Ultimate Happy Hour at Lookout: Also in the category of "here every week, but extra-packed for Pride" is Lookout's Friday Ultimate Happy Hour, which features $3 premium vodka drinks and 50% off appetizers, not to mention a prime Castro location that's sure to pull even the most confused gay out-of-towner into its force field.

5. Lollipop Free Drink: Lesbians, we're not leaving you out: the popular Lollipop dance party is celebrating its third year at Pride by offering the first drink of the night free with your $15 admission, plus $1 Red Bull and vodka from 9-10.
