Orange County, California
Where Craft, Culture,
and Community Meet
Last Call Society is a curated passport experience built for those who believe the best nights are made, not stumbled into.
How Last Call Society Came to Be
Last Call Society was founded by Josh Buckhalter and Adam Dahl, two creatives brought together by a shared passion for drinking culture, immersive experiences, and community.
Josh and Adam first connected when Adam was in the early stages of launching PintLife in Los Angeles — a passport program built specifically for the craft beer and brewery scene. About a year later, when PintLife expanded into Orange County, they began collaborating on events and activations across the craft beverage landscape.
At the same time, Josh was building Drunken Gentlemen, an independent drinking club and apparel brand. With over 20 years of experience in hospitality, marketing, branding, events, and e-commerce, he had long been interested in creating a curated drinking program tied to the culture Drunken Gentlemen represents.
Rather than build that program solo, Josh chose to partner with Adam. Together, they drew inspiration from the proven passport model Adam developed through PintLife — and blended it with the culture, storytelling, and creative direction behind Drunken Gentlemen.
That collaboration became Last Call Society.

Built With Intention
Last Call Society was never meant to be just another bar list. Every location in the 2026 Passport is carefully selected. From hidden speakeasies to iconic lounges and cocktail-forward destinations, every stop represents a place worth discovering — or rediscovering — through a more intentional lens.
Each venue earns its place based on five criteria:
