February 1-5, 2016 was Unofficial Bartender Week in New York City.  Organized by the New York Chapter of the United Bartender's Guild, a great time was had by all!  Many thinks to the all the brands who sponsored events, the bars all around the City that welcomed us, and of course the team from USBG NY who worked very hard to put the event on.
On Bartender Journey Podcast # 149, we recreate the week and give you a summary.
