Jungle Jim's Whiskey Night: Frontier Style

This year, we’re taking it back to the earliest days of American history to pay homage to whiskey’s rich American heritage! As one of America’s signature creations, whiskey, especially bourbon, is a celebrated cultural artifact that transcends generations. Rediscover your love for America’s classic spirit with Jungle Jim’s Whiskey Night: Frontier Style as we celebrate the vibrant, time-honored tradition of American whiskey. This year, we’re bringing together more than 60 bourbons and whiskeys from across America and inviting you, whiskey connoisseurs and enthusiasts, to The Oscar Station, our brand-new Jungle Jim’s venue, for a night of good, “old fashioned” fun. With live music plus an array of whiskey-themed appetizers from The Oscar Event Center’s Executive Chef, Jungle Jim’s Whiskey Night is sure to be the most exciting evening of the year!

The Festival

Whiskey and the American Frontier
Whiskey is one of America’s first creations and has remained an American staple for hundreds of years! Beloved by early settlers, pioneers, and explorers, whiskey was a crucial element of the burgeoning American economy and helped support the country at its very beginning. As long ago as the Revolutionary War, whiskey was America’s drink of choice and a source of pride for Americans, as it is today.

Learn to Craft the Classics
If you’re ready to learn, our new cocktail classes will teach you everything you need to know to craft classics like Old Fashioneds, Manhattans, Whiskey Sours, and more! Led by celebrities of the whiskey world, our classes will give you the opportunity to learn all about the components that make a great cocktail and how to complement the unique flavors of whiskeys and bourbons.

Discover The Oscar Station
This year’s Whiskey Night will be held in The Oscar Station, our brand-new Jungle Jim’s event space! Freshly renovated with a distinct rustic industrial atmosphere, The Oscar Station features a unique, hand-designed bourbon bar with more than 60 bourbons suspended on a mechanized track. It’s the perfect space to host this year’s Whiskey Night and we can’t wait to welcome you through its doors.

Upgrade to VIP to Experience More
Limited, just like the whiskeys and bourbons you’ll be sampling, VIP tickets to Whiskey Night offer more time to samples and more samples to try! As a VIP, you’ll get to enter the festival one hour early at 6:00 PM, try 10 whiskeys or bourbons with a bonus cocktail, and sample exclusive rare bourbons and whiskeys that won’t be available to General Admission attendees! Plus, you’ll enjoy an incredible array of decadent food crafted just for you by The Oscar Event Center’s Executive Chef.

A Night and a Flight in Honor of Al Young, with Brent Elliott
At this exclusive Night and a Flight, we will be honoring the late Al Young, a celebrated whiskey expert who served as Senior Brand Ambassador for Four Roses and worked in the bourbon industry for over 50 years. Mr. Young was a longtime attendee of our Whiskey Night and often taught educational classes or led tastings at Jungle Jim’s. To celebrate his legacy, we will be opening and serving our bottle of Four Roses Al Young 50th Anniversary Small Batch Limited Edition, which was actually signed by Mr. Young. Brent Elliott, Master Distiller for Four Roses, will be joining us for this dinner and our Executive Chef James will be serving a gourmet, multi-course meal by the bite. In addition to Four Roses Al Young 50th Anniversary, we will be serving a selection of unique bourbons to pair with each course. We hope you’ll join us at this unforgettable dinner as we celebrate and honor the great Al Young and kick off an incredible weekend of whiskey. Click here to watch a recap video!
