I hosted my dear friend's baby shower at Draft and Vessel this past weekend and it could not have been more perfect! The Beer School layout and decor are incredibly unique and cozy, we loved everything about it. We were able to arrive a little early to decorate and get things set up and to connect with the bartender ahead of time to open the party tab. Guests were able to go to the main bar and order whatever they wanted, service was incredibly friendly and helpful. There was plenty of space for food, there are cups and water available, a dart board, the loop and hook game (is that what it's called?), and shuffle puck. We were able to connect to the speakers in the space with bluetooth and had XM playing in the background. We received so many compliments from guests about the space, decor, overall success of the party. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Draft and Vessel and the Beer School space, I wouldn't hesitate hosting another...

The husband and I rented out the beer school for our coed baby shower. Everyone invited has a great time! They had a fantastic NA selection for our mothers to be and sober pals. They also have wine and cocktails on tap. It was a beautiful day, so we were able to open up the garage doors to the patio and mostly everyone hung out, outside — which was great because we had quite a bit more people than anticipated and it would have been a tight squeeze in the beer school. It says it sits 35 but can fit 40 people and then people can overflow into the regular bar. If you have this many people for a shower, I would try to minimize the amount of tables you use for shower gifts, guest gift bags, etc. b/c you’ll be taking away from space where people can sit. Overall, a very positive experience! Will keep it in mind again for any birthday parties...
