Charity – Drinking In Context

Drink for a Cause: $10 Tie Sale @DuNordCS

When local bars/tap rooms/cocktail rooms team up with good causes, everyone wins. The establishment gets business, an organization makes some needed funds, and you get to tell your boss you were at a fundraiser (which sounds way better than “I was at the bar all night!).

This particular event has the added benefit of adding a bit of flair to your wardrobe! The $10 Tie Sale is an event to raise money for the GLBT Host Home Program. Over one hundred ties have been donated, vintage and new, and all the money goes directly to the Host Home program. While you’re shopping, you can enjoy one of the many DuNord cocktails, including a special drink just for this event.

Tuesday, October 13th | 7pm-9pm | DuNord Craft Spirits, 2610 E 32nd St, Minneapolis

@ThirstNetwork at Iron Bartender

The newly launched Thirst Network, conceived of in part by Lee Egbert of 11 Wells and Dashfire Bitters, is out in force at the Iron Bartender finals. This project hopes to be the definitive resource for beverage media, with support from some of the best local bars, coffee shops, distillers, and more.

Iron Bartender Finals

The first match up tonight is Tattersall vs. Hola Arepa. Battle of the syrups! (Seriously, both teams have an intimidating lineup of syrup bottles at the front of their bars.)
