Join Gentleman Historian, Dylan Almendral and Distiller Extraordinaire, Ryan Freisen, for an evening of vice, distraction and cocktails as they share the history of the longest sea-battle you’ve never heard of, “The Battle of Santa Monica Bay.” Between the years 1927 and 1946, existed a small fleet of independently operated Pleasure Ships floating just off the California Coast in international waters. We will dive right into the sordid history of gambling, intrigue, the Southern California mafia and more!
