Put on your glad rags and come on down to our juice joint for a night you won't forget!

That's right, youse guys! For one night, we're going back to the bad old days of the 1920's for a good old fashioned Prohibition Speakeasy.

Enjoy some "tea" from your free wax dipped Maker's Mark mason jar. If you want to learn how to "brew," My Old Kentucky Homebrew will be demonstrating on the spot. Maker's Mark is also sending one of their master distillers to the party for a little public education.

Our local paper, "The Sneak," will give you the skinny on who can be bribed to do what.

Bring some $1 clams to buy off the cops, get your picture in the paper, or have your enemies thrown into jail. (If you're imprisoned, you can always bribe your way out of the clink.)

"The Sneak" will also give you clues how to talk to the Godfather and what to do in order to win a cigars, money clips, and a flask from J. Shepherd Cigars, a bottle of Dumante Liquor made in Sicily, and a Maker's Mark wax dipped fedora.

For our gents, rumor has it we may have a live barbershop set up on premises offering real live straight razor shaves.

Since you're gussied up anyway, our gin joint'll have a dance floor where youse guys and gals can show off your smooth moves.

Come dressed as gangsters and molls. If you don't have a pinstriped suit or a flapper dress, a jacket and tie are required for men and an evening gown for ladies. Go on, you always say you never have an excuse to dress up. Take a night out on the town.

Pre-registration is only $25

    Where are the pics from this event? I would love to see some. There was a photographer there going crazy snapping photos, so there have to be at least a hundred!

The Godfather was awesome and the tasting was a real treate. Those mugs were so special and fabulous, mine fell of the kitchen counter over the weekend though. You are amazing at your job. We all appreciate the hard work you put into our fun times. Thanks a million. ”
