Moving craft cocktails forward with the owners of Lost Whale

Great bars are spots where you can sit back, relax and unwind after a long day. They’re innately social: a place to gather with friends, celebrate milestones and raise a glass to the future. The best of the best are also pushing boundaries with tasty, innovative cocktails. 

On this week’s podcast, we’re chatting with Daniel Beres and Tripper Duval of Lost Whale in Bay View, Wisconsin, a spot which exemplifies the creative, yet casual vibe that characterizes the modern cocktail scene. During our conversation, they share the mythical story behind Lost Whale, the adventures of bar ownership and their perspectives on the changing face of the craft cocktail world. Along the way, we discuss the craft of cocktails, the art of mocktails and a variety of related topics that will not only make you smile, but give you insights into the personalities behind two friends who’ve found their niche behind one of the best bars in the city.

Be sure to stay tuned for the Spirited Second, a special Bar Month feature with Brandon Reyes of Bittercube Bar & Bazaar. This week, we’re sampling and chatting about the wonders of vermouth.
