And here’s the official blurb from the CPL crew:

Coffee Potluck and Nemesis Coffee present Brews & Beats Volume II, the Nightcap Before Christmas, this season’s hauntingly festive cocktail experience.  This is a unique two-night pop-up where coffee is whimsically woven through liquor in unexpected cocktails and accented with mixed tracks.

Guests will be welcomed into a dimmly lit, minimalist, Nemesis Cafe on Hastings.  The intriguing ambiance and sensory intrigue will include tantilizing coffee-inspired cocktails, artfully crafted by Propaganda Coffee’s William Wang and Kris Wu, while listening to beats spun by local Chapel Sound members.
 

Building on the fun events like Capps for Cocks n’ Coochies (the adult themed latte art competition); and Vancouver’s first Coffee Mini-Fest and Western Canada’s Aeropress Championships,  this event promises to heighten intrigue for all cocktail drinkers, while attracting a community of taste-focused foodies.  Complete with paired music, this is our second annual take on cocktails; dive deep into coffee, cocktails, and music with us.  Welcome to our living room, where good company, café, bar, and lounge intersect.
