The autumn air calls for exceptional company, great conversation, and even better pours. It’s time to gather for our next Good Barrels Member Gathering, and we have a fantastic evening lined up!

In October, we are heading to Raleigh’s historic Glenwood-Brooklyn neighborhood. Our gathering will be hosted by Philanthropour #105, Rick Kiernan, at his home.

The Details:

• When: Tuesday, October 13, 2026

• Where: 1205 Filmore Street, Raleigh, NC 27605

• Host: Rick Kiernan, Philanthropour #105

A Quick Note on Parking: Rick’s home has plenty of space for all of us to comfortably gather, but parking downtown can be a challenge! It is mostly street parking, which will get congested, and you may end up needing to walk a couple of blocks. We highly encourage members to Uber or Lyft if possible.

The Good Barrels Tradition: The heart of Good Barrels is the spirit of generosity (and excellent taste). To keep the tradition alive, we encourage everyone to bring a bottle you’d be proud to serve to a friend. Whether it’s a rare find you’ve been hoarding, a sentimental favorite, or a unique bottle with a great backstory—uncork it, crack it open, and let’s pour it forward.

RSVP: Please let us know by Thursday, October 8, 2026, if you can make it. We are bringing in catering for this event, so a strict headcount is essential for us to plan accordingly!

Come thirsty, bring your best stories, and let’s make this October gathering one for the books. See you there!
