After-Work Drinks Scavenger Hunt
Friday after-work drinks with a game on top. Short, light challenges for the bar or the terrace, made to play with a drink in hand. No route, no fuss, just closing out the week together. One [Customize!] challenge lets you plug in something about your own work week.
Challenges (16)
The opening toast
The first round is on the table. Raise your glass with the whole group and take a photo at the moment the glasses meet. Bonus for the best toast to the weekend.
Order something nobody knows
Order a drink that nobody at the table has ever had before. Take a photo of the glass and write down the name of the drink.
The coaster tower
Build the tallest free-standing tower you can manage on the table out of beer mats (or coasters). Take a photo of the tower the moment it stands on its own.
The perfect pour
Find the best-looking glass of the evening: the perfect head of foam or a neatly poured drink. Take a close-up photo of it.
Behind the bar
Politely ask the bar for permission and have one colleague pose behind the bar for a moment as if they are the bartender, glass or shaker in hand. Take a photo.
Toast in a foreign language
Make a toast in a language you do not actually speak: Italian, Japanese, Swedish, make it up if you have to. Record a short video of it.
Beer mat flip
Place a beer mat half over the edge of the table, flick it up and catch it out of the air. Record a video of a successful attempt (practice is fine, the successful one counts).
Cheers with a stranger
Clink glasses with someone at the bar or on the terrace you do not know and wish each other a good weekend. Take a photo of the clink.
The bar snack build
Using the bar snacks on the table (bitterballen, nuts, olives, cheese cubes), build a tower or small artwork on a plate. Take a photo of it before it gets eaten.
Sing along at the bar
With a small group, sing one line of the song playing right now, or a classic everyone knows. Record a short video of it.
The terrace backdrop
Take a mood photo of the group with the bar or terrace as a backdrop: the light, the glasses, the Friday-afternoon feel all in frame.
The weekend shout
Count down from three with the whole group and then shout "weekend!" together as loud as allowed. Record a video of it.
The fullest high table
How many colleagues can you squeeze around a single high table without anyone dropping out? Take a photo of the packed table.
Name that drink
Come up with a name for your drink tonight, write it on a beer mat and stand the mat in front of the glass. Take a photo of the glass with its new name.
Last round group photo
Final challenge: one group photo at the last round of the evening, glasses up, the week officially closed.
[Customize!] The week in one word
A question or mini-challenge about your work week. (Organizers: come up with a question or task, for example "Photo of the group acting out the word that best sums up this week" or a quiz question about something that happened this week, with the answer.)
