Free Fridays

A couple of promising freebie events tonight we'll be checking out ourselves.

• Bottlerocket Wine & Spirit (5 West 19th Street) is staying local with a tasting from Tuthilltown Spirits - the producers of Hudson Valley bourbon and rye. In addition to whiskey, they will be pouring their vodka.
  
  
• Astor Wines & Spirits (399 Lafayette Street) celebrates the upcoming return of daylight savings time with "London Lemonade" made with Bulldog gin. They'll also be tasting a white burgundy, a red from Lirac, an organic white Bordeaux and a red Bordeaux.

Both tastings are tonight from 6pm to 8pm. We're reasonably confident you can stagger from one to the other.
