Tonight: Charitable Drinking

Plus: Alfresco dining and Whiskey Wednesdays

SOCIAL STIMULUS: The monthly Social Stimulus Social Club party goes down at West Loop's Market bar tonight.

These events can be extremely popular, so you're encouraged to get there early. 5:30-9 p.m., 1113 W Randolph, RSVP your name and guest here

LAST CALL: You're quickly running out of opportunities to dine outside this summer, which is why you should take advantage of this deal with Time Out Chicago. Head to the Park Grill for specialty Martini Rosato cocktails and finger foods for two hours against the backdrop of the Chicago skyline. Tickets are $10, $15 if you get them at the door. 6-8 p.m., 55 North Michigan Ave

WHISKEY WEDNESDAYS: The brown nectar to the gods gets its proper due at this weekly event at Crimson Lounge. Get there early to sip on gratis Maker's Mark drinks from 10-11 p.m., or enjoy $6 Miller Highlife and a shot of Gentlemen Jack all night while enjoying DJs Orvtronixxx and Les Trois Stooges spinning a mix of indie and dance cuts that should give everyone something to groove to. 10 p.m., 333 N.
