BarSmarts Advanced is Heading to Philly in September

We are VERY happy to announce that BarSmarts Advanced is coming to Philadelphia, PA on September 26 for our 50th event!

BarSmarts Advanced Philadelphia Wednesday, September 26, 2018 Event Location TBD Registration - $75

REGISTER FOR BARSMARTS ADVANCED

BarSmarts Advanced events are open to graduates of the online BarSmarts program only.

So what is BarSmarts Advanced? - BarSmarts Advanced is a full-day of instruction, education, hands-on mixology, testing and certification that takes place in select cities each year.  Hosted by Pernod Ricard USA, and BAR, LLC, these events are a day of challenge, learning, and fun.

The morning session includes an introduction by F. Paul Pacult, a comprehensive blind tasting with Steve Olson and Doug Frost, history and cocktail/punch demos with Dale DeGroff and Dave Wondrich, and a discussion on service/hospitality with Andy Seymour.

In the afternoon, participants will take a 100-question test (includes a blind tasting) and a separate practical exam. The practical exam asks participants to properly make 3 classic cocktails in front of one judge. Tools will be provided for the practical exam, but participants may use their own if they prefer.  To properly prepare for the afternoon testing, we suggest all participants login to their BarSmarts account and re-review the reading/video material. The written test questions and practical drinks will come directly from the online materials.  Participants that pass both exams will become BarSmarts Advanced Certified – our highest certification!

We require all BarSmarts Advanced attendees to take and complete our online BarSmarts program first.  To take the first step in attending BarSmarts Advanced, please register and complete the BarSmarts program.
