5 to 7 formula, free entry, open to all.
Cider, wine, brandy, champagne, absinthe, and even moonshine are among the beverages that have graced the throats of Quebecers over the past four centuries. Where did these intoxicating liquids come from? How were these drinks adopted and then adapted to the realities of Quebec life? This fascinating history explores not only the drinks themselves, but also the circumstances surrounding their consumption.
