altered State EVENTS

(Event dates listed below)

We host more live local and regional music than anyone in Erie !!!

Altered State Distillery is a strong supporter of local and regional musicians, food trucks, breweries, artists, even animal shelters .

We host a happy hour Tuesday through Thursday, Trivia every other Thursday and live local and regional music every Friday and Saturday night year round. Sunday afternoons in the summer months we host a "funky brunch" complete with live music, bloody mary bar, brunch entrees and omelet bar, reserving one Sunday/month for our Arts and Casks Handmade Vendor Fairs .

Food Trucks and Pop-Ups are also a big part of what we do. We can't call it an "event" without them. You will often find your favorites parked around back or popping-up inside our production space. For the most up to date information on Food Trucks, check out the calendar on our dining page.

Tuesdays with Timber is set to return in 2024 with local music, adoptable pets and yappy hours benefitting local and regional animal shelters and foster programs. (Yes, we are pet friendly!)

Monty Python and the Holy Grail Movie Night

Thursday, April 25th 7-10pm

King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table embark on a surreal, low-budget search for the Holy Grail, encountering many, very silly obstacles.

Trivia:
Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and Genesis all contributed to this movie's budget.

Funds earned by Pink Floyd's album "The Dark Side of the Moon" went towards funding this movie. The band were such fans of the show, they would halt recording sessions just to watch Monty Python's Flying Circus (1969).

Open 4-11
Happy Hour 4-6
Movie Time 8 pm (run time 1hr 31 min)
Food Vendor (TBA)
***Upgraded Sound system!***

Don your chain mail, grab your shrubbery and join us on a quest like none other!
We've upgraded our sound system and we're working on a movie-themed cocktail menu as well as other fun surprises!

Inside or out? If the weather is picture perfect and above 65 degrees, we'd love to have it outside, but if the weather is inclement, we will show this movie in the tasting room.
Come early to get a seat.
We hope to see you!
