Drinks are prepared by some of Vancouver’s finest bartenders and topics range from distillation to honey terroir, to the science of the hangover. Building on previous success, the team at Rough & Tumble have curated an evening for the curious-minded that is a foray into the weird and wonderful.

The fifth edition of Odd Talks takes place at Odd Society Spirits (1725 Powell St.) onMonday, September 30 welcoming captivating storyteller, Glenn Tkach of the highly regarded Forbidden Vancouver: Really Gay History Tour.
