Read ’em & Sip! – A book club for thirsty readers
October 28 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
FreeRead ’em & Sip – A book club for readers who like their drinks with a twist of knowledge.
The Wicked Wolf, recently crowned Best Bar in Long Beach, is thrilled to launch its innovative book club with a unique twist. This first-of-its-kind book club blends the joy of reading with the history of spirits and the art of cocktail-making.
We meet on the last Monday of each month in the cozy confines of the upstairs Wolf’s Den. Each session will feature a curated book and a suggested cocktail, mocktail available for purchase. This innovative pairing ensures that every sip adds a new layer to the narrative, elevating the book club experience.
“Read ‘em & Sip is our way of mixing community engagement with a dash of fun, a splash of education, and a twist of spirited dialogue,” says Thea Mercouffer, co-owner and self-titled Artistic Director of The Wicked Wolf. “From the very beginning, we’ve aimed to be a space for cultural exploration and community connection, and this is just another way to realize that vision.”
The October session will spotlight Love & Whiskey by Fawn Weaver, the founder of Uncle Nearest Whiskey. “The book is a story of love, honor and respect between Nearest Green and Jack Daniel – and her drive to draw a roadmap to generational success for women and BIPOC business owners – is an incredible true story of friendship, faith and purpose.”
