A unique opportunity to sample and learn about the authentic drinks that would have been served at establishments such as Samuel Jones’s longtime tavern in South Acton.

Master of Ceremonies Steve Trimble will lead the presentation in the original 1750 Jones taproom and dining room, and serve samples of regional beverages of the times.  Topics will include an introduction to the role of taverns in the community, the evolution of bourbon from rye to corn, and the popularity of “punch”.

Hors d’oeuvres of the period will be served.  Period attire is encouraged!  Tickets $50; registration required.  RSVP at www.ironworkfarm.org.

Free parking on site or on nearby MBTA lots.
