It's the local spirits event no one asked for: the first annual "Malort Night" at Nisei Lounge beginning at 6:30 p.m. tonight. May is Malort Month and Jeppson's is throwing its first ever official event in history with a Malort cocktail contest, a real Malort historian, meet the Malort Team for the first time, vintage print ads on display, and $3 Malort shots, $5 Malort cocktails, $4 Schlitz and Old Style tallboys. (You'll need those to wash the taste of Malort out of your mouth.)

Nisei Lounge is located at 3439 N. Sheffield Ave.
