What is our relationship with alcohol in 2020?
It's a funny thing for a bar to ask, or do. Especially ours, one that built a reputation on intentional cocktails, thoughtful liquor selection, and not serving a lick of food (besides Cheetos, that is).
But we thought it was time to talk about how we talk about alcohol, given our role in providing it and often celebrating it. On average, drinking in the United States steadily rises every year, even as another trend takes shape: that of more casual abstainers.
We're gathering some brilliant minds to discuss why this is happening, its effects on our dining and social culture, and what the role of a bar should be in this decade.
When you remove alcohol from the equation, do social interactions get better? How do we respect and welcome people who make different decisions about how they choose to drink or not drink? And will it last?
