• Green Man Brewery - “Marley’s Warning” - Begin your journey with the award-winning brews from Green Man as your host, Nigel Humbuggins, sets the scene: Scrooge’s avarice, Marley’s spectral guilt trip, and the impending visit of three spirits. After all, nothing captures the essence of Christmas like your past, present, and future arriving at happy hour!
• Urban Orchard Cider Co - “The Ghost of Christmas Past” - Enjoy festive ciders from Urban Orchard while Scrooge awkwardly revisits his bittersweet past: lost loves, missed opportunities, and that initial spark of redemption. Consider it a Victorian therapy session… with a touch of alcohol.
• The Funkatorium - “The Ghost of Christmas Present” - Toast with Funkatorium’s funky sours or barrel-aged beers to antics and holiday cheer. Humbuggins will summon the Cratchits, Tiny Tim, and just enough holiday generosity to make you briefly consider buying the next round.
• Antidote Cocktail Lounge at Chemist - “The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come” - Conclude your crawl with this Spirit hovering over your 1920’s apothecary-style craft cocktails. Fate, shadows, and hauntingly delicious brews merge, bringing the story to its thrilling climax, and leaving you pondering if ghosts have a preference for IPAs.
