20s & 30s Social @ Biergarten + New Friends

From Gist IRL SF
4.7

**RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/DAj4J01B7domKHRs4YR1 **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later** Wow! We had such a huge turnout last time! We had to do this event again! And we're doing it whether you just went crazy last night and want a low-stakes way to recover or if you're trying to extend your Halloween celebrations ;) Our IRL Friend Event is like no other in the city. Here, you'll meet someone new every 8 minutes. It's literally real-life speed friending! We're going to kick things off with 1-1 conversations, and you'll chat with several different people who share your enthusiasm for beer and SF. It is a completely zero-pressure way to see who you naturally vibe with. After the rounds, you'll pick the folks you enjoyed talking to most, and we will all head to the beer garden across the block for drinks together. By the end, you're around a table with 4-6 people you just met but already like, clinking glasses and enjoying the day. Whether these new friends turn into your regular beer garden crew or it just ends up being a genuinely fun time after crazy Halloween, I promise you will be glad you joined us. The Plan: - 4:50PM: Check-In. Follow the link to set up your quick profile on your phone and get ready to mingle. - 5:00PM - 6:00PM: One-on-One Rounds. The app pairs you up for focused, easy chats. Find out who shares your favorite brews, go-to spots, and easygoing weekend energy. - 6:00PM+: Form Groups & head to the nearby beer garden together. Reconnect with your favorite matches, form a crew of 4-6, and head out to grab a table and a round of drinks — your group leaves together today. Let's move past just swapping brewery recommendations but never actually getting together for a pint. Today, we'll actually grab drinks with new folks and maybe even form a tight-knit squad for new beer gardens and breweries to explore. Plus, when the glasses are empty and you want to plan your next tasting, you can easily stay in touch with everyone through the app afterward without ever swapping phone numbers. **RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/DAj4J01B7domKHRs4YR1 **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later**
