December Cocktail Events Round-Up

December is nearly upon us.  If you live or will be in D.C., here are the cocktail events that should be on your calendar (and if I’m missing something you know about that should be on here, let me know).  Note these events do not include New Year’s Eve, which I intend to cover in a separate post:

Miracle on 7th Street.   The annual winter-holiday-themed pop-up bar in the Mockingbird Hill, Eat the Rich, and Southern Efficiency spaces on 7th Street in Shaw is up and running again.  Come for the amazing decorations, stay for the cocktails that you won’t find on any other menu in town.  Also dress warmly and prepare to stand in line outside a very long time.  1839 7th Street N.W.; ongoing from November 24th through December 31st.

1930s-Inspired Repeal Day Fête at Jack Rose.  Prohibition ended on December 5, 1933.  Come celebrate the anniversary at Jack Rose’s sixth annual party honoring the day, this year featuring “Pappy Hour,” from 5:30 to 7 p.m., when the entire line of Pappy Van Winkle bourbon will be offered at discounted pricing; “bottomless bubbles” for $20; and Prohibition-era cocktails served up by Dram & Grain in the bar’s basement.  Burlesque performers will provide additional entertainment, and Jack Rose encourages guests to dress in Prohibition-era attire.  2007 18th Street N.W.; December 5 from 5 to 10 p.m.

Cocktail Class:  Brandy Cocktails at barmini.  barmini hosts cocktail-making classes on a monthly basis.  I’ve been to couple of these this year and have had a blast every time (for an example, see my Instagram post about the Chartreuse class here).  You will be greeted with a cocktail on your arrival.  Then you will mix three cocktails of your own with the careful and attentive instruction of the barmini team, with small snacks in between.  This month’s class is on brandy cocktails – perfect for December.  501 9th Street N.W.; December 6 at 5:30 p.m.

D.C. Champagne Week / Vintage Champagne Tasting at Columbia Room.  Started last year, D.C. Champagne Week is back for its second season from December 4-9.  Celebrate the week at a special event at the Columbia Room, which will uncork 1982 and 1990 vintages from “top champagne houses,” guided by Champagne Week co-founder Alison Marriott and paired with food by Columbia Room’s Johnny Spero.  Tickets are $450 per person.  124 Blagden Alley N.W.December 8 at 6 p.m.

D.C. Craft Bartenders Guild’s Tenth Annual Repeal-Day Ball.  Celebrating Repeal during the week at a bar is one thing, but blowing it up on the weekend at a black-tie event at the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium is quite another.  This is the Tenth year of this event, but the first year at this venue, which the Guild (@dccraftbarguild) has rightfully been boasting about on Instagram.  E.g.:

Tickets range from $90-140.  1301 Constitution Avenue N.W.; December 9 from 7:30 p.m. to midnight.

Have fun out there!
