Your Passport to Flavor in 13 Cocktail Stopovers
Summer brings out the wanderlust in us all. From road trips across the States to jetsetting across the pond, the long nights of summer beckon us to experience something new and different. Join CUESA and the United States Bartenders Guild for a night of barstool travels without ever leaving the beauty of the Bay. Refresh and relax as local bartenders and chefs create a taste adventure of cocktails and bites that will transport you to faraway places using the bright and bold flavors of the midsummer farmers market.
Guests receive three full-sized signature cocktails featuring Herradura Silver, Ketel One, and Mount Gay Black Barrel Rum, along with unlimited sample-size drinks and tickets for hors d’oeuvres in this walk-around tasting. Join us in the Ferry Building’s gorgeous Grand Hall, a portal for travelers to San Francisco for over a century, and dream of your next adventure while a DJ spins an international soundtrack. Pick your favorite drink and vote to win prizes.
This staycation of the tastebuds may not cure your wanderlust, but you’ll have so much fun that you may feel a little jet-lagged the next morning!
Proceeds from the night support CUESA’s educational initiatives and the USBG’s professional development programs.
