On Wednesday, June 25th, from 7p – 9p, rediscover rye whiskey at The Barrel Thief Whiskey & Wine Bar.  The whiskey of choice for many years was rye, but now it’s all ‘bourbon, bourbon, bourbon.”  Enough of that corn stuff!  Spicy, fruity rye whiskey has lots of character, and can be a little edgy – like Fremont!

This rye-only tasting will offer a selection of whiskeys, with many of the tastes costing only $1.  Enjoy rye from Angel’s Envy, Bendistillery, Fremont Mischief, High West, Hudson, James E. Pepper, Old Scout, Rittenhouse, Sazerac, Templeton, 3 Howls, and Woodinville Whiskey Co.  Purchase tasting tickets and take your pick.  After all, what else are you going to do with a buck?  Take half of a bus ride Downtown and look for bourbon?

Try out feisty young ryes, ryes with a few years under their caps, rye cocktails and flights of rye.  And if you order a Manhattan or an Old Fashioned on June 25th, please tell them to make it with rye!  Stop by The Barrel Thief for ‘Rye Don’t You Love Me’ this Wednesday, and enjoy the rye whiskey – entry is free, with tasting tickets available for purchase.
