Adams Morgan’s Jack Rose to Party With Free Whiskey, Snacks

An Adams Morgan bar is set to mark its fifth anniversary with a “bourbon-fueled bash” that will include gratis whiskey, punch and appetizers tonight, according to the watering hole.

The “5 Years Finished” celebration for Jack Rose Dining Saloon (2007 18th St. NW) is scheduled to run from 5 to 8 p.m.

A Facebook event page adds:

Open to the public and free to attend, the bourbon-fueled bash will treat loyal guests to a complementary bourbon punch, ½-ounce tastes of five different ‘finished’ bourbons which have further matured in casks such as sherry, cognac and Spanish brandy. Jack Rose will also resurrect rare barrel-finished beers and popular cocktails from the past, with deals on $5 draft beers and wines by the glass. The anniversary bash will also serve as the launch party for the bar’s exclusive new single barrel from Tennessee’s Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery – a cask-strength 10-year Belle Meade bourbon finished in sherry casks.

Jack Rose also will have “swag bags full of goodies from us and some friends” for the first 25 people who stop by, according to a post on the bar’s Facebook page.

But the birthday festivities won’t end tonight. The celebration will continue until the weekend, with $10 Dram & Grain bourbon cocktails tomorrow, a free opportunity to dip Maker’s Mark glasses with red wax Friday and discounted Pappy Van Winkle whiskey Saturday.
