We had an amazing time at our first-ever tasting event with the Lake Country DockHounds! Guests enjoyed Lake Louie beer flights or handcrafted mocktails from the DockHounds, creating a fun, personalized experience.

The relaxed, extended format gave everyone a great opportunity to connect, spark new conversations, and build meaningful relationships.

A huge thank you to the Lake Country DockHounds for hosting and sponsoring the evening, and to Brandon from Lake Louie for guiding us through a fantastic tasting experience!
