About


About


Is the Beverage Academy an actual bartending school?

No. The Beverage Academy consists of a series of interactive classes that instructs absolutely anyone of legal age on the world of beverage, as well as the intricate details and techniques of competently preparing cocktails. Though the classes are created for anyone's enhancement of their spirits and cocktail knowledge, many professional bartenders and food & beverage industry people have reported the classes to be very rewarding (and a lot of fun!).

Where do the Beverage Academy Classes take place?

Onsite Beverage Academy Classes usually take place in the Wilson and Wilson Bar at Bourbon & Branch. The Wilson & Wilson setting is a very comfortable space for dedicated class instruction. Complete bar-keeping tools, products and equipment are provided at the Wilson and Wilson. Onsite classes at the Wilson & Wilson have a maximum of 24 participants. On occasion, our Classes are presented at our other bar locations including Rickhouse in the FiDi of San Francisco, Bottle Club Pub near Union Square, and at Tupper & Reed in downtown Berkeley.
