The 80th Anniversary of the Repeal of Prohibition will be celebrated this Thursday, and Gerber Group is getting into the spirit with a few 1930s era specials and cocktails at its Whiskey Park and Whiskey Blue locations.
For one day only on December 5th, Gerber Group’s Whiskey Blue will offer secret, off-the-menu Moonshine Cocktail Flights for $20. Each flight includes three drinks (2 ounce pours). The catch? In order to access the specific menu items, you’ll have to give the secret password. HINT: Check out their Facebook/Twitter on December 5th.
Additionally, Whiskey Blue introduces their Old-Fashioned cocktail ($15) made with Old Forester’s Whiskey Blue Special Edition Anniversary batch. For the venue’s 15th anniversary, Gerber Group worked with Old Forester to acquire custom barrels, and Whiskey Blue is the first account to ever buy a custom barrel from the distillery. Whiskey Blue is located at 541 Lexington Avenue in New York City.

Whiskey Park will also offer Prohibition-style bottle service with 200 mL flasks of Widow Jane ($55), a whiskey that is handcrafted in Red Hook, Brooklyn with the pure, sweet water of the Widow Jane Mine in Rosendale, New York. It was the limestone from this mine which helped to build the Brooklyn Bridge, the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building. Whiskey Park is located at 100 Central Park South in New York City.
