Event Description
Spirits, Ski & Java
from Jan 12th to 16th, 2018
jSpirit is a new Java unconference in the Bavarian alps. Starting in Winter 2018, we’re down for Spirits, Ski & JAVA. How does that sound do you?
Spirits
jSpirit is the first Java (un)conference ever being held in a distillery (at least to our knowledge). And it’s not just any distillery – it’s Europe’s most modern distillery: Lantenhammer Erlebnisdestillerie Hausham!
By the way: we are renting the entire distillery: lunch will be served in the main storage depot between all the whisky, gin, rum and schnapps barrels. And we can hold sessions everywhere, even right by the stills!
