Description

Ryes Up is a cocktail event, a food event, a cocktail competition, a silent auction and most importantly, a charitable fundraiser for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation of MD. The BBG is happy to be hosting "Ryes Up" in 2022. This year we'll be at the Sagamore Pendry Pool and Courtyard (the Grand Ballroom as our back up space if the weather does not cooperate). We'll have some of the most creative bartenders in Baltimore mixing up exciting rye cocktails from 5 regionally local distilleries. Those distilleries are Sagamore Spirits, Baltimore Spirits Co., McClintock Distilling, Republic Restorative Distillery, and Catoctin Creek Distilling Co. This year we will also have a Spirit Free cocktails station by BARE Zero Proof Spirits, along with local beer and wine. And we always have a non-rye whiskey station for those that want something other than rye whiskey. Furthermore, we have delectable food to enjoy while sipping on delightful cocktails. Food sponsors will include Cocina Luchadoras, JBGBs, Sally O's, Rec Pier Chop House, Dutch Courage, Alma Cocina, Hersh's, Neopol & Capital Grill. During Ryes Up check out and bid on items at our huge silent auction with prizes ranging from spirit baskets, coffee lovers bundles, local art, local brewery experiences and much, much more. VIP tickets will be an option. VIP ticket holders will need to arrive just before 4pm and get to enjoy a private VIP tasting of Michters Whiskeys with their own knowledgable whiskey ambassadors. VIPs will also receive a VIP gift bag courtesy of Michters and get to sneak into the main event before the crowd. Lastly, you be the judge. While we have a professional judge competition, we want to know what the guests think. You get to pick your favorite cocktail and food item to crown two winners, the "Peoples' Choice". Don't miss out on one if the best spirited events in Baltimore.
