Gather all of your supplies and refrigerate your beer. No one likes to drink warm beer. Yuck! We have so many amazing craft beers in Oregon. The hardest part will be selecting just four beers to sample.
Place an empty beer bottle in a Medium Kraft Paper Bag and roll down the top of the bag. I looked for bottles that didn’t have a label already around their neck. However, I found it was easy to just pull off the label and use water and a sponge to remove it. Tie some Natural Jute around the bag to keep it in place. Use a sharpie or add some decorative stickers like I did. You can pick these up in my shop, or you can just leave the bags blank. Grab the Beer Bottle Neck Stickers or the Backyard Beer Bash Bag Stickers to complete the look.
Add in a Silver Glitter Table Number. You will just need numbers 1-4. I just threw these into the empty beer bottles. They dress up the plain paper bags just a bit.
Cut out the FREE Printable Tray Liner. I went a step further and had mine laminated in case we spilled any beer on these. It also made for super easy clean up and now these are totally reusable for other parties. Football season anyone? I know I will get a ton of use out of these.
Poor one of your beer selections into the Mini Shot Glasses. These glasses are the perfect size and surprisingly very sturdy! We added several Mini Shot Glasses to a tray and as you can see, the laminated tray liner was a great idea. Oops! There was no crying here over spilled beer. Simply wipe it up and continue pouring!
Once you have your four beer selections poured into the Mini Shot Glasses, it’s time to taste and rate! You can do a blind taste test where your guests don’t know the beer selections or you can tell your guests. We did it both ways! Guess what? Either option is totally fun and you get to drink beer either way. I’d say that is a win-win!
Start sipping that beer! Have your guests fill out the Beer Party Place Mats and rate each of the four beers. If you are doing a “blind” taste test you can even have a gift for the winner. This activity is social and tons of fun!
Hope you enjoyed this activity. Here are a few more photos for you look at. Incorporate this activity at your next Backyard Beer Tasting Bash!
