Announcing Maize & Mingle: a Celebration of All Things Corn

August 27, 2024by Russell Gottschalk

Fall in Atlanta brings football, festivals, and an abundance of sweet corn. At DoMA, fall gives our corn whiskey its chance to shine. DoMA and our friends at Georgia’s only Seed to Still distillery, Doc Brown, are celebrating this mighty staple with Maize & Mingle, a festival dedicated to all things corn. Attendees can expect:
 

Corn Spirits!

DoMA’s Corn Whiskey is distilled from 100% white corn and aged in a combination of ex-rye barrels and ex-bourbon barrels (used to age imperial stout and barley wine). Enjoy it neat or in cocktails.

Doc Brown’s Whiskeys and Bourbon Creams are crafted with homegrown Georgia corn and distilled at DoMA. These products are available for bottle purchasing to be consumed off site.

– Our specialty cocktail for Maize & Mingle is the “Tiny Dancer” powered by DoMA’s Corn Whiskey Batch 2 and complemented by basil liqueur, cranberry, and fennel.

 

Cornhole Tournament!

We’re teaming up with CornholeATL to bring you an exciting day of Cornhole while fundraising for Giving Kitchen, a nonprofit that provides emergency assistance to food service workers. This double elimination tournament will run approximately 1:00 – 4:00 PM and is a 50/50 contest. Half of the registration fees will go to the winning team and the other half will be donated to charity.

What better way to spend a beautiful October day sipping artfully crafted cocktails and throwing bags?!?

$50 per team of two; all ages are welcome to play. 21+ to consumer distilled corn. Register your team(s) here.

 

 

Corn Program!

 

Flower Arranging Workshop: Maize & Mingle programming ends at 2:30 PM with a fall-themed Flower Arranging Workshop by our longtime partners Eventful ATL.

The $75 ticket includes a cocktail, non-alcoholic beverage, or snack of your choosing.

Corn foods!

We are thrilled to welcome Don Tamale and Chef Carla as our featured vendors. Come hungry and enjoy their tamales and corn cakes respectively.

Kids’ CORNer!

Minors are welcome at DoMA although we all know their drink menu is limited. But for this family friendly Maize & Mingle festival, we’re setting aside a special place in our Watson gallery for lil’ human corn play including corn shucking, arts and crafts, and more! Note childcare is not provided; please stay with your child(ren) at Kids’ CORNer.

 

We’re so grateful for Doc Brown’s support of this first ever Maize and Mingle. We look forward to celebrating corn with you on Sunday, October 6 from 11 AM – 5 PM!
