Well folks, it’s nearly that time again – the bartender’s holiday of the year! Join us next Saturday, December 5th for the 76th celebration of the Federal Repeal of Prohibition in the United States, fully ratified on December 5, 1933.

If you’ll be anywhere close to the Washington, DC area, join Jeffrey Morgenthaler and bartending greats Todd Thrasher, Dale Degroff, Tad Carducci, and more for the Second Annual Repeal Day Ball, held by The DC Craft Bartender’s Guild (DCCBG) on December 5th, from 9PM to midnight.

Tickets are on sale now, $100 USD for general admission, $150 for VIP, with a portion of all ticket sales going to help the Museum of the American Cocktail in New Orleans.

I don’t know yet if I’ll get a chance to make it to Washington, but I’m doing everything I can to re-arrange my schedule to let me go. Wherever it is you end up on Repeal Day, raise a glass of thanks to the right to drink legally, and celebrate all things great and inspiring about our craft.

Tickets to the Repeal Day Ball can be purchased online through the DC Craft Bartender’s Guild website at http://www.dccraftbartendersguild.org/
