Did you purchase your tickets yet for the Eatonton Expedition? Time is running out! Tomorrow (August 13) is the final day to purchase tickets for this Saturday's Eatonton Expedition! 🏠Walk-up tickets will NOT be available during the event. ✨With over 20 historic homes and sites, there's something for everyone! Tickets can be purchased on the Georgia Trust website, https://www.georgiatrust.org/tours-events/expeditions/

Barrel 118 will be open from 2-6 pm that day for anyone interested in checking out the space. *No ticket required!* We will have a selection of classic cocktails, beer and wine available for purchase.

Built in 1900, this 9,300 sq. ft. warehouse originally stored local farmers’ cotton awaiting transport via railroad. The building later became the H.B. Hearn warehouse, where farm supplies were stored and sold.

Historic restoration and major renovations completed in late 2019 now premier a strikingly gorgeous event venue with an industrial vibe. The unique architectural layout, distinctive design elements, and one-of-a-kind furnishings cater to a wide range of different events.

Ready for a sneak peek at some really inventive Craft Cocktails? Our mixologist took inspiration from some famous paintings to create a few Dual Vision Craft Cocktails! This is one of a few options that will be available during our Happy Hour event on Friday, September 15 from 5 - 8 pm.

Take a stroll through the French countryside with this light, refreshing drink bursting with a lemony-floral mix of botanical herbs and flowers. Taking inspiration from "The Stroll" (or Woman with a Parasol) by Claude Monet. A mix of dried lavender, tarragon, lemon balm, and jasmine flowers make up a house-made herbal simple syrup. Combined with Creme de Cassis, prosecco, and fresh lemon juice... You can almost taste Provence. Don’t forget your parasol!
