Time is almost up on our third-year anniversary celebration. We posted a low ticket alert earlier this week and are now down to 16 tickets remaining. Here's a look at the event, as well as how to get those last tickets...
The ABV Barrel Shop’s 3rd Anniversary Celebration
Our third anniversary celebration is happening on Saturday, July 12. Your $30 ticket gets you 90-minutes of access to the event, the ability to sample any of our 25 brands that will be pouring samples, the opportunity to buy any of the bottles of the spirits you taste that day, the occasion to buy special barrel picks being released festival weekend and a chance to meet, interact with and have bottles signed by many notable individuals from the bourbon industry.
As of May 15, we announced attendees of the Mini Whiskey Festival will also be getting a Glencairn with our logo and that of Art of the Spirits on it with a lanyard to hold it around your neck during the event. Thank you to Art of the Spirits founder Richard Paul for his generosity in making this happen.
