Dan Deoliveria, Michael Killmer, and Peter Vestinos at Shift Drinks at Pops for Champagne
Last night’s Shift Drinks at Pops for Champagne to raise money for Shawn Koch of Paramount Room was a great success. Peter Vestinos from Wirtz Beverage Group, Dan Deoliveria and I banged out some classic cocktails for the hard working industry folks of Chicago. All of our tips went to our friend Shawn at Paramount Room who is recovering from brain cancer. We had a great time at this week’s Shift Drinks at Pops for Champagne.
Be sure to stop in at Pops every Monday night to enjoy a local chef or mixologist highlighting his/her skills. All tips go to charity of their choice. Here’s a short video of Colleen L. Healy from Pops for Champagne talking about why she likes Templeton Rye Whiskey during “Shift Drinks” the Monday Industry Night in Chicago, IL:
Patrick Poncher of Five Star Bar in Chicago, Illinois, talks about how he prefers Templeton Rye whiskey over Bourbon and how their patrons are hooked on The Good Stuff.
The Good Stuff is all about Templeton Rye, our fans, our employees, our industry and our history.
We invite you to join the conversation by sharing your comments and stories.
