Boothby Center for the Beverage Arts

Introducing the hub for beverage education in San Francisco, the Boothby Center for the Beverage Arts is the new community center, “beverage lab,” conference room, event space and home of the Barbary Coast Conservancy of the American Cocktail. “Cocktail Bill” Boothby was a turn-of-the-century San Franciscan barman, author, philanthropist and civic leader who connected the fabric of the City with his wits, his grit and his cocktails. The Barbary Coast Conservancy of the American Cocktail dedicates their home base as an homage to this historic San Franciscan and all those alive today who honor his work.
