MARCH

A Very British Whodunnit

Last Orders at the Teabridge Taproom An Immersive, Mystery Paint & Sip Experience

MAR 28

Did someone say cocktails in teapots? Step into Brit’s Pub for A Very British Whodunnit: Last Orders at the Teabridge Taproom — a deliciously scandalous paint-and-sip mystery where teapots run wild, clues spill faster than gossip, rival societies battle for glory, and you just might walk away as Chancellor of the Cheeky Chat.

BRITS PUB, DOWNTOWN MINNEAPOLIS

APRIL

The Outrageously Illegal Society of the Bottomless Flask

A No-Good, Double-Crossing Mystery Paint & Sip Night

APR 18

6.00 - 8.30 pm

If bootleg cocktails and back-alley brushstrokes got your attention, then you’re in the right place. Sneak into Steady Pour for a no-good, double-crossing Mystery Paint & Sip Night, where the hooch stays hidden, the paint gets rowdy, and your canvas just might hold the clue everyone’s been whispering about. With shady characters milling around, rumors flying faster than a busted moonshine still, and every crew trying to outsmart the next, it’s up to you to piece together what really went down and crack the case before the coppers do.
