The perfect pour

[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.)

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).

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.

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.

Last round group photo

Final challenge: one group photo at the last round of the evening, glasses up, the week officially closed.

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.

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.

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 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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.
