First Session- Jews and Booze: Torah and Tasting for Ages 35-50
June 10 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
$85
Join us while we sip, study, and schmooze. In this 4-part series exploring the intersection of Jewish tradition and alcohol, we’ll taste our way through wine, beer, and whiskey while diving into fascinating questions like: What makes whiskey kosher? Why are there a million rules about wine in Jewish law? Can beer ever substitute its grape-made cousin for ritual purposes? What’s the story on brewing/fermenting your own booze?
Each session will feature a different kosher alcoholic beverage (plus non-alcoholic options) and thought-provoking Jewish learning in great company. We’re building a cohort—so while we hope you’ll come to all four sessions, drop-ins are still welcome if that’s what works for you.
Tuesdays, 7:00 PM-8:30 PM
June 10 – Wine & Ritual
June 24 – Wine & Taboos
July 8 – Beer
July 22 – Whiskey
Open to folks ages 35–50, from any Jewish background.
$85 covers the cost of all four parts of the series. If you’ve got questions—or if cost is a barrier—please reach out to Rabbi Atara at acohen@edcjcc.org.
We’d love to raise a glass with you!
