So…how does Beer Flight Date Night speed dating work?

The first portion of the event is for guests to relax and mingle, once everyone arrives the tour begins. You will be guided through the brewery and shown how the process of beer is made from its ingredients to the final product. After all that, you’ll be craving all the beer you can imagine and that’s where the beer flight begins. Guests will be given an assortment of general and seasonal selections that the brewery has to offer along with a pairing dish (alternative food options will be available) to accompany the beer. After everyone has satisfied their delights and is cozy in the setting, it's time to let the speed dating commence!

You’ll be seated in front of a potential match with 8 minutes to get to know one another. Feel free to talk about whatever you want, but we always recommend you keep it lighthearted and professional (don’t do anything we wouldn’t do). Once time is up, the ladies remain seated and the gents move down a spot and take a seat at the table of their next potential match.

Remember to take time at the start of each date to write down your dater’s name and, at the end, mark off if you felt it was a good match or not. Once you’ve spoken to everyone, that’s it, you’re done—great job! Make sure your scorecard is filled out correctly, hand it back to our host, and leave the rest to us.

However, just because the event is over doesn’t mean your night has to be! Feel free to stay for a drink (or two). Kick back, relax, and maybe chat further with some of the other daters from our speed dating event. Within 72 hours you will hear back from us via email with exciting news about your potential matches from our speed dating event.
