Description

Join local beer historian Craig Gravina and Belt Line 3 for a “spirited” history lecture and drink demonstrations Join local author and beer historian Craig Gravina and Belt Line 3 for a “spirited” conversation, featuring the uniquely Albany relationship between beer and politics. From the first Patroons, to brewer-mayors, and (of course) bootlegging, Albany beer was a powerful tool in building strong political clout. As Craig Gravina reveals our beer-y past, Belt Line 3’s Emmanuel Treski will create cocktails inspired by the stories, and share tips for making your own versions at home. It’s part history lecture and part mixology lesson! You won’t find an experience quite like this! $50 includes lecture, cocktail demonstration, and two exclusive specialty cocktails inspired by the historic stories featured this evening. Limited seating is available. Tickets are purchased on Eventbrite or call Belt Line 3 at 518-451-9003 for a reservation. "Beer, Brewing, and Politics as Usual" is the first part of series of pub talks at Belt Line 3, in partnership with Discover Albany. Stay tuned!
