CREATE A POUR-PERFECT EXPERIENCE
You’re not just renting a space—you’re hosting your event at a brewery. That’s the magic…Lean into it!
Instead of just sending guests to the bar and calling it a day, elevate the experience. Consider curating a custom beer flight that showcases your personal favorites or our brewery’s best-sellers.
Plus, beyond beer, all of our taprooms offer rotating hard seltzers or hard smoothies, curated wines, and a variety of non-alcoholic beverages. Having something for everyone keeps the vibe inclusive and ensures every guest has a tasty drink in their glass worth toasting.
💡 PRO TIP: Purchase drink tokens in advance and hand them out to your guests for pre-paid rounds—it’s a fun and flexible way to keep the good times flowing!
FUEL THE FUN
Delicious food can enrich an event, especially when it’s paired with refreshing Pure Project beer. Ensure your guests are fueled up and satisfied throughout the event by serving up food truck favorites, crafting a stunning grazing table, or curating a custom snack bar. Great food can transform your event from ordinary to unforgettable!
Looking for recommendations? Let us know! We’ve worked with amazing local food vendors who serve everything from upscale bites to comfort foods.
💡 PRO TIP: Don’t forget the sweet stuff—dessert pairings with stouts can be a hit!
MAKE YOUR EVENT UNIQUELY YOURS
Small, thoughtful details can make all the difference. Personalize your celebration with custom signage, creative table centerpieces, and eco-friendly decorations. For an extra layer of fun, consider games, raffles, and a photo backdrop (or photo booth) with quirky props.
💡 PRO TIP: Add a small chalkboard or framed sign with a message from the host—it’s a simple touch that makes guests feel appreciated and connected to the occasion.
