San Francisco

Cocktail Week's got a grip of pro-taught booze classes, including the tools and techniques of batching badass party punches (w/ Elixir's owner), "How To Be a Bartender", covering the finer points of shaking, stirring, muddling, garnishing, etc, and a history lesson on Barbary Coast-themed cocktails at Rye. At each event, you'll drink down whatever you're learning about, a memory-jeopardizing practice ensuring people show up to these things next year.
