The Fourth of July is a time for celebration, and JW Marriott, Anaheim Resort is offering two exciting events to make this holiday weekend unforgettable. With the Independence Day Biergarten Tasting and Iron Smoke Event, there's something for everyone to enjoy.
Independence Day Biergarten Tasting: On July 1st, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., the Serenity Garden at JW Marriott, Anaheim Resort will be transformed into an evening biergarten. This event features five of Southern California's best breweries, offering an excellent selection of beers.
To complement the brews, Parkestry's International Street Food menu will provide a complete taste sensation. Live music, a specialty lemonade stand for the kids, and the resort's signature Family by JW craft table ensure that everyone, regardless of age, will have a fantastic time. Tickets for the Independence Day Biergarten Tasting are priced at $50 for adults and $20 for kids. Secure your tickets by visiting here.
On July 4th, from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m., the Executive Lounge at JW Marriott, Anaheim Resort will host the highly anticipated Iron Smoke event. This curated cocktail experience promises to be the highlight of the weekend. For $55 per person, guests can enjoy a 45-minute smoke cocktail experience led by a dedicated bartender. The bartender will craft up to two cocktails specifically tailored to each individual's preferences and interests. The unique twist to this event is that all cocktails are smoked, hence the name "Iron Smoke."
In addition to the cocktail experience, guests will have access to the Executive Lounge offerings, including a variety of non-alcoholic beverages, a full buffet of appetizers, curated food pairings for the cocktails, and snacks to take on the road. The Executive Lounge also provides breathtaking views of the city skyline, making it the perfect spot to watch the fireworks. Reservations are required, and seating is available for groups of up to eight guests, with a 45-minute service time. Additional cocktails can be purchased for prices ranging from $14 to $26.
