Philly Craft Spirits Week has been running since last Thursday with events at bars all over town. But if you’ve somehow managed to miss everything so far, don’t worry. There are still two nights left to get out there and show a little love to your hometown distillers.

Tonight, Bluebird Distilling is headed to Stateside on East Passyunk for cocktails and whiskey flights, and to the Library Bar in Rittenhouse for a pairing of their three whiskies (rye, wheat whiskey and four-grain bourbon) with desserts from Lacroix’s pastry chef, Fred Ortega. Dad’s Hat will be pouring whiskey flights and rye cocktails at Devil’s Den on East Passyunk. And Manatawny Still Works will be at Second District Brewing Company for a “Beer is Fine but Liquor is Quicker” event featuring cocktails and small plates.

On Friday, the big event is the PCSW closing night party at Martha in Kensington. The distillers will all be there to pour, sample and celebrate, and the public is welcome to come in and join the party. Can’t make it to Kensington? That’s fine. Manatawny will be at Herman’s Coffee spiking everyone’s joe and doing a pop-up bottle shop. Bluecoat gin will be at Positano Coast for happy hour. And, once again, Bluebird will be doing the last of their whiskey-and-dessert pairings.

You can check out all the details at the PCSW website below.
