FAQ

• Will my mug get rinsed between samples? Yes! Each vendor will have water to rinse out your mug so you get a clean sample every time.

• How big are the drink samples? 4 ounce beer and cocktail samples, 2 ounce wine samples, and 0.5 ounce spirit samples.

• Will this event be indoors or outdoors? The Duce has indoor and outdoor spaces, including a rooftop bar, patios, and an indoor space. We’ll have the doors open so it’ll be a breezy, free flowing space. January will make for a cooler environment, perfect for soup!

• What if I drop and break my mug? The mugs you receive will be metal camping mugs, so we wouldn’t worry about breaking them!
