Water For People is hosting Whiskey Rebellion Denver from 6 to 8:30 p.m. July 10 at the Curtis Hotel (1405 Curtis St.), part of the Craft of Water series celebrating the integral but often unnoticed role of water in the creation of everyday products, food and drink.
Whiskey Rebellion Denver, a showcase of American brown spirits, highlights the role of water in the American whiskey distillation process. (Fact: water typically constitutes 60 percent of a barrel of whiskey.) The event, focusing mostly on bourbons and ryes, features a number of whiskey producers and suppliers including Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey, Breckenridge Distillery and Downslope Distilling among others.
Attendees will have the opportunity to sample 12 American whiskeys, attend a cocktail demonstration and enjoy complimentary snacks. Tickets are available at http://yeswhiskey.com/denver for $37 on a first come first serve basis, with a $75 super support ticket for additional fundraising for Water For People.
Proceeds from the ticket sales will go to support Water For People’s efforts to bring safe drinking water to communities across the globe. The Denver-based organization brings together local entrepreneurs, civil society, governments and communities to establish innovative, collaborative solutions that allow people to build and maintain their own reliable safe water systems.
