Great Lakes Distillery hosts Seinfeld-inspired 'Festivus' celebration

 

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The holidays are in full swing and that was certainly the case at Great Lakes Distillery on Monday, Dec. 23. 

People there aired their grievances out as part of Festivus. It's the made up holiday from a Seinfeld episode that gives you a chance to complain with a purpose. 

The distillery had some special drinks and gifts on tap. 

"Festivus is kind of the last big go out with your friends before family, long weekends, all the family stuff," said Ross Salchow of Great Lakes Distillery. "Just come out, relax, it's all based on a Seinfeld episode, but people have really embraced it."

The distillery offered "Stop Crying and Fight Your Father" punch straight out of their custom Festivus pole. 

The party has been going on for a decade.
