Rum
Rum a Dum Dum

Here's a lie about rum: It was invented by pirates who needed a way to obscure their sugar caches (sugar being illegal throughout the majority of Europe during what's now known as the “Carb Wars” of the 19th century). To hear this fake news debunked, come by the Copper Lounge this Sunday, Sept. 9. Learn the true sordid history of your favorite hangover maker while enjoying drinks and tasting samples from 3 to 7pm at Rum. Get insider info on the libation for just $30. Historians over 21 are welcome. (Joshua Lee)
