Itinerary

1. Green Man Brewery
"Marley’s Warning" - Kick off your adventure with award winning Green Man brews while your host Nigel Humbuggins sets the stage: Scrooge’s greed, Marley’s ghostly guilt trip, and the looming visit of three spirits. Because nothing says Christmas like your past, present, and future showing up at happy hour!
Duration: 30 mins
2. Urban Orchard Cider Co
“The Ghost of Christmas Past” - Sip festive Urban Orchard ciders while Scrooge awkwardly revisits his bittersweet past: lost loves, missed chances, and that first spark of redemption. Think of it as a Victorian therapy session… with alcohol.
Duration: 30 mins
3. Wicked Weed Funkatorium
“The Ghost of Christmas Present” - Raise your glass of Funkatorium's funky sours or barrel-aged beers to shenanigans & holiday cheer. Humbuggins will conjure the Cratchits, Tiny Tim, and just enough holiday generosity to make you consider buying the next round… briefly.
Duration: 30 mins
4. Antidote Cocktail Lounge at Chemist
“The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come” - Finish your crawl with this Spirit looming over your 1920’s apothecary-style craft cocktails. Fate, shadows, and hauntingly delicious brews collide, sending the story to its thrilling conclusion, and leaving you wondering if ghosts prefer IPAs.
Duration: 30 mins
