Dim light, vinyl echoes and the murmur of a studio-turned-speakeasy: the Golden Sound in the Gulch frames a two-hour class that puts craft cocktails and local lore side by side. Guests gather at a long bar beneath retro sconces while an instructor cues stories about moonshine, flappers and the city’s nightlife past; the room smells of citrus oils, smoked bitters and frying snacks.
