Details

At Birch & Barley and ChurchKey, our love for all things fermentable has always extended beyond our obvious infatuation with the finest craft beers; one look at our extensive artisanal cider list or our focused wine program demonstrates that. Our dedication to grain-based libations follows this premise as well, and we are getting really excited about our bourgeoning whiskey collection.

Beer and whiskey have been historically intertwined, and not just on account of their base ingredients. Barrel-aging was once as commonplace for ales and lagers as it has been—and still is—for Bourbon, Rye or Scotch, and today many craft brewers are revisiting this practice, with some even utilizing barrels that once held whiskey itself.

So join us Monday, March 21 as Beer Director Greg Engert showcases some cutting-edge whiskeys alongside some his favorite craft-brewed ales. Greg will lead the tasting of three whiskeys alongside three whiskey barrel-aged brews and also speak to the small bites, imaginatively prepared by Chef Kyle Bailey, that will be paired to each of these tipples.

Begins at 7 PM. Tickets are $35—exclusive of tax and gratuity.
