I know you love your kids, but have you ever thought that being at the
Carnegie Science Center might be more fun without them and with cocktails?! If
so, you’re in luck! The Carnegie Science Center is hosting a 21+ event for the
sexy set. So, I think that you should be there! More details appear below.
PITTSBURGH,
August 2, 2013 ― Carnegie Science Center will open
for adults only on Friday, Aug. 9, from 6-10 pm, for an evening titled 21+
Whiskey.
For just
$10 in advance ($15 beginning at noon on Aug. 9), 21+ Night will offer a chance
for adults ages 21 and up to explore
the science behind the whiskey-making process from grinding the grain, to
fermentation, to distillation.
Adults
will have access to all four floors of exhibits, including BIKES: Science on
Two Wheels, SeaScape, the Miniature Railroad and Village®, SpacePlace, and
roboworld™. There will be a cash bar with a signature Wigle Whiskey
drink, and snacks will be available for purchase.
21+
Whiskey will feature a live performance by Southern
rock band “Sour Mash,” as well as a variety of hands-on exhibits, science demos,
and presentations by Wigle Whiskey:

Whiskey Rebellion and learn about the history of whiskey in the Works Theater.
Plus, “Ask the Distiller” your questions.

old-fashioned way, using a hand grinder.
