January First Friday

Friday, January 3rd from 7pm – 10pm
Theme: Wassail Celebration

All first Fridays are 21+, ID required. $10 admission for members, $15 for nonmembers, available at the door only. BYOB (legally procured in PA) is allowed. Light refreshments included. Special tastings featured are an additional $10 and have limited availability. 

After months of Jingle Bells, enjoy the unique acoustic music of earlier days in America and Ireland, as well as original songs, performed by Susquehanna Travellers. January is also when we (tongue in cheek) seek the blessing of a bountiful harvest of the fruit trees at the tavern by Wassailing in the moonlight. Come prepared by dressing warmly in brightly colored attire with hats adorned in a festive winter or orchard theme and bring noisemakers! At the end of the evening, we will make noise (including shooting a cannon) to scare away any evil spirits, and appeal to the good spirits by singing Here We Come a Wassailing, at which time the Wassailing Queen will place toast in the trees.

Enjoy a new Tasting Program with Tavernkeeper Murray Small in the Eichelberger Distillery for an additional $10. You’ll be able to participate in the “Wassail” tasting AND receive a free McKenzie whiskey glass (an $8 value) with the Eichelberger Distillery logo.

Cheers and see you then!
