If (like us) you feel an informal union with the lovely, lovely people who’ve made dispensing adult beverages their profession, tonight you can support a more formal union by visiting 33 Wine Shop & Tasting Bar.

More specifically, the small but stalwart Lafayette Square establishment will host a fundraiser for the nascent St. Louis chapter of the United States Bartenders’ Guild from 6 to 9 p.m., according to 33 owner Jeff Stettner.

Members of the guild – including local mixology masters Ted Kilgore of Taste by Niche, T.J. Vytlacil, Monarch’s Nate Selsor and others featured in our November cover story, “Cocktail Hour” – will mix cocktails at the event, which will also feature a raffle, a wine tasting and a beer tasting. All cocktails will cost $8, with wine and beer a bit cheaper – but all proceeds, again, will benefit the guild.
