Having announced a first-of-its-kind Jewish tavern in America in August, Joshua Foer and Rabbi Charlie Schwartz then appeared on the Identity/Crisis podcast nearly two months ago to share further about their tavern. As their tavern, Lehrhaus, is set to open a week from today, I’m excited to share that Rabbi Schwartz is the featured guest on the 122nd episode of The Jewish Drinking Show to discuss the impending opening of this fascinating creation.
