Starting August 1, we will offer mixed drinks made with our mead and spirits from Connecticut Distillers such as Fruitful Mixology, Litchfield Distillery, and Fifth State Distillery!
We received a lot of really positive feedback from our Mead Club members on our test night, so we're really excited to bring these creations to the public! Can't wait to see you here to choose your favorite!
Our August artist is Karen Michaud. Come meet Karen and see her beautiful work on Thursday, August 8.
Game night with @theboardgamelibrarian! If you're a board game fan, this is a night you don't want to miss. Jenn always brings new and exciting games for us to try out. I have also seen some prototype games from local makers testing them live. Bring a friend, or we'll help you find a gaming companion when you arrive.
- BYO Food (see our recommendations)
- FREE Entry
- FREE Parking
- No Outside Beverages (We've got you covered: alcoholic & non-alcoholic)
It works pretty simply: Bergen House has a bunch of games to choose from, plus The Board Game Librarian also brings a rotating selection of games. Or, you can bring your own game. Similarly, you can bring your own friend or play with one of ours. It's a great networking opportunity of like-minded individuals. Bergen House makes the mead, you can bring your dinner and your well-behaved canine friends, too. We all come together for a good time.
One of our biggest/best events every year. Details TBA (watch your emails)
-- This event is for Mead Club Members only (if Mead Club registration hasn't already closed for year, use the online Store to get your membership) --
Our August Book Club book is "How High We Go in the Dark" by Sequoia Nagermatsu @sequoia.nagamatsu
Casual meeting of like-minded people. Looking forward to meeting up and discussing with you!
By the way, we started at Bergen House Good Reads. Great place to keep track of our book club books and to share comments if you can't make it to the meeting.
