This Year's Theme---Spirits of '76!

From 7:00 p.m.-9:00 p.m.

Join us in celebrating the 6th Anniversary of Tavern Night!

This year’s theme–Spirits of 76!

Listen to live music, enjoy pub-style food and light bites, and sample a wide selection of local craft beer, hard cider, spirits (rum, bourbon, whiskey, and more), wine, and non-alcoholic options. We’ll also have a swag table where you can pick up themed Spirits of ’76 T-shirts and extra tasting glasses (you’ll be given one with admission—but you’ll want more than one!), plus a Silent Auction.

What you’ll receive/enjoy

  • Each guest will receive a souvenir tasting glass—with the “Spirits of ’76” logo—and a Tasting Guide describing the beverages being served.
  • Pub-style finger food and coffee on the porch.
  • Live Music
  • A selection of “must-have” Silent Auction items to bid on!
