Get ready for a one-of-a-kind experience that combines three things we all love: beer, pizza, and puzzles! Introducing "Pizza Puzzles and Pints," the ultimate event where you can indulge in delicious slices of pizza, sip on refreshing pints of your favorite brew, and challenge your mind with a captivating puzzle, all while surrounded by great company.

But there is a catch: To win you must finish 4 pints of beer, a pizza, and complete the puzzle as a team! There may be music and distractions...Do you dare?!

Do you have 3 crazy friends that will join you?

We will have live music and teams competing to win the "Puzzlemaster" prize!
