Bryant's Cocktail Lounge with John Dye

In 1938, if you wanted a proper cocktail, you had better find yourself on a steamship, a dinner car, or in a fancy hotel. Bryant Sharp, as in Bryant’s Cocktail Lounge, changed all that, and gave America one of its first freestanding cocktail lounges. Learn how Bryant’s evolved from a working class shot and beer bar to a classic cocktail spot to a touchstone of living history in what is now called the craft cocktail scene. Owner John Dye will be giving a tour of this establishment, sharing Bryant’s lore, legend and history. Sample drink will be provided for all attendees.

Only open to participants ages 21 or older, no children. This tour is not accessible.
