Discover the secret Alcohol House at Carnegie Museum of Natural History

by Boaz FrankelFebruary 7, 2022August 31, 2022

On this installment of Yinzer Backstage Pass, we venture into the off-limits Alcohol House at Oakland’s Carnegie Museum of Natural History to discover hundreds of thousands of frogs and lizards preserved in jars. We get a tour of the collection, going back to the 1800s, from curator Jennifer Sheridan and collection manager Stevie Kennedy-Gold.

Check out last week’s episode and take a tour of the Turner Dairy Farms factory to see how their beloved iced tea (and chocolate milk) gets made.
