Close out Spokane Cocktail Week with TRVST Movie Night, a laid-back wrap party for the industry and cocktail lovers alike. Settle in for a lineup of your favorite hospitality films while enjoying a fully loaded popcorn bar (yes, we take snacks seriously). The drinks will be flowing, the vibes easy, and the company even better. It’s the perfect way to toast an incredible week—one last round, one last cheers. Come hang, unwind, and relive the moments that made this week unforgettable.

Step into the beautifully bitter world of Jeppson’s Malört—a spirit with a reputation as bold as its flavor. Love it, hate it, or pretend you do for your friends, this happy hour is your chance to experience Malört like never before.

We’re serving up a signature Malört cocktail menu designed to challenge expectations and showcase just how versatile this infamous liqueur can be. Paired with classic Chicago dogs and a healthy dose of tongue-in-cheek humor, this is not your average happy hour—it’s an initiation.

Whether you’re a seasoned Malört masochist or a first-time skeptic, come explore the complexity, the lore, and the oddly compelling charm of a spirit that refuses to be ignored.

Drink up. Or don’t. We won’t judge (much).

Come together with Malört, Fernet, and Opal to explore what it really means to be bitter—and why the hospitality world can’t get enough of it. This class dives deep into three cult-favorite industry drams, unpacking their origins, their legends, and the unmistakable punch that’s earned them a permanent spot behind the bar (and in bartender hearts).

We’ll break down what “bitter” actually means—from flavor profiles to cultural identity—then taste our way through these iconic pours, each with its own story of grit, tradition, and a little bit of beautiful chaos. Why do bartenders love them? Why do they keep coming back for more? And why does suffering sometimes taste… kind of good?

Expect bold flavors, strong opinions, and a hands-on lab where you’ll experiment with bitterness yourself—because nothing builds character quite like a little bite.

Come curious. Leave converted (or at least a little more bitter than before).

Step into the world of Underberg for a happy hour unlike anything else.

Crafted from a secret blend of aromatic herbs sourced from 43 countries and perfected since 1846, Underberg is more than a bitter—it’s a ritual, a legend, and a rite of passage for those in the know.

Join us for an Underberg Happy Hour featuring signature cocktails that showcase this iconic herbal elixir in unexpected ways, alongside the classic experience—cracking open that perfectly portioned bottle and taking it as intended.

Unwrap. Sip (or shoot). Repeat.

Step into a little slice of Torino—no passport required.

Join us at the Terrace Bar for a sun-soaked Carpano Aperitivo Patio Party, inspired by the Italian tradition first brought to life by Antonio Benedetto Carpano. This is your official invitation to slow down, sip something bittersweet, and ease into the evening the way Italians intended.

Expect a lineup of vibrant, low-ABV classics—think Carpano Spritz, Americano, and crisp Prosecco—alongside playful nods to the Fernet-Branca portfolio like the Eva Perrone and Borghetti Spritz. Easy-drinking, beautifully built, and designed for maximum patio appeal.

Snack on aperitivo staples—briny olives, savory charcuterie, and light bites—while upbeat music sets the tone. Whether you’re posted up in the sun or floating through the crowd, this is your moment to recharge, reconnect, and get into the spirit of the night ahead.

Come for the spritz, stay for the vibe, and make your pre-game feel like a getaway

Step into the shadows for an after-hours experience where mezcal meets mischief. This pop-up pairs smoky, seductive pours with a flash of something a little more permanent—an underground tattoo moment not for the faint of heart. Sip mezcal while deciding just how bold you’re feeling. It’s equal parts ritual, rebellion, and really good taste. Come curious, leave marked (one way or another).

Tini Time: your favorite happy hour pastime, now with a touch of class (and a splash of Grey Goose). Join Grey Goose and Ruins as we dive into what actually makes a great vodka martini—from vermouth ratios to garnish debates that may end friendships. You’ll sip your way through the lesson, because research is important. Expect strong opinions, stronger drinks, and at least one “wait…this is actually better” moment. Come curious, leave just a little more particular about your martinis.

Explore the diverse whisky regions of Scotland through a guided tasting featuring Glenlivet (Speyside), Laphroaig (Islay), Dalmore (Highland), and Auchentoshan (Lowland).

Expect zero judgment, loud singalongs, and at least one person who thinks they’re headlining Coachella. Whether you’re belting a power ballad or butchering a throwback, we support you—emotionally, not musically. Come for the cocktails, stay because your friends signed you up without asking.
