K&L Head-to-Head Tasting, Italy in Six Glasses, Stunning Beers, & More!

This is an exclusive meet and greet opportunity with Jim Gaffigan that gives each guest the opportunity to purchase a bottle and have it signed! No fee, no ticket needed; just walk-in or follow the link to guarantee a spot!

Join Jim Gaffigan as we celebrate his bourbon project Fathertime Bourbon, a small-batch label he co-founded in 2024 with filmmaker Stu Pollard as a personal exploration into whiskey. Developed as a non-distillery producer, the brand focuses on hand-selected Kentucky barrels released as “precious batches,” with each name reflecting the milestones and challenges of fatherhood—because, as Gaffigan often jokes, parenting is the ultimate endurance sport. “Bourbon is basically adulting juice,” and each bottle captures that same humor alongside his direct involvement in selecting and shaping the final blend of every batch.

Please Note: To ensure a smooth check-in experience, we encourage guests to arrive early! Precheck will begin at 12 PM. This event DOES NOT include a bourbon tasting. No purchase is necessary to attend, and admission will be based on arrival time, with guests welcomed in order of the line.

California’s brewing culture has long blurred the line between coastal tradition and experimentation, and this tasting dives into that restless energy with crisp lagers, resinous IPAs, and dark beers layered with smoke, roast, and coffee-driven intensity. The lineup moves through Humble Sea’s Munich-inspired Helles, Hanabi Lager Co.’s precise pilsner brewing, There Does Not Exist’s moody black lager, and hop-saturated pours from Pure Project and Ghost Town, before landing on Cellarmaker’s cult-favorite porter brewed with coffee aromatics that nod to old-school diner culture. Stunning Beers of California brings together breweries shaping the state’s modern beer identity, offering a snapshot of how California continues to reinterpret classic styles with personality, regional influence, and a little West Coast irreverence.

We’re putting the K&L Discovery Series side-by-side with classic bottles from the very regions that inspired them. Built around long-standing producer relationships and collaborative custom cuvées, the Discovery Series explores how appellation character can be expressed through wines sourced and produced exclusively for K&L. This tasting pairs Rhône, Bordeaux, and Barolo selections against counterparts from respected estates, creating a comparative lineup designed to spotlight terroir, style, and approach across three iconic regions. Taste them head-to-head and decide for yourself the incredible value that the K&L Discovery series wines can deliver!

Italian wine remains one of the most dynamic categories in the world, shaped by thousands of years of regional winemaking traditions, an unmatched diversity of native grapes, and a lasting influence on how Americans eat and drink. This lineup moves through volcanic Falanghina and Fiano from Campania, hillside Soave from Inama’s Foscarino cru in Veneto, traditionally raised Nebbiolo from Piedmont, and Sportoletti’s Umbrian Rosso, a wine first planted in the 1970s on land better known for olive groves than international varieties. Whether you are revisiting familiar regions or discovering how differently Italian wines speak from one hillside to the next, this tasting offers a relaxed way to explore bottles with deep regional identity and remarkably distinct personalities.
