Hotel Emma to Celebrate the End of Prohibition with Repeal Day Party at Sternewirth

While many breweries and distilleries closed during the Prohibition Era, the Pearl stayed in business. During that time, Pearl CEO Emma Koehler kept employees busy making near beer, and offering dry cleaning and auto repair services.

Fortunately, prohibition is over, but Hotel Emma is celebrating its namesake’s legacy and the repeal of the 18th Amendment at the Sternewirth Bar with speciality Jim Beam cocktails and live music. The event takes place on Thursday, December 5, from 7 to 11 p.m.

Guests are encouraged to celebrate the occasion in their best Prohibition era wear, drinks and a stop at the hotel’s free photobooth. The party is free to attend, with cocktails available for purchase.

So many restaurants, so little time. Find out the latest San Antonio dining news with our Flavor Friday Newsletter.
