Beer Tasting Evening at Aztec Hotel & Spa

Grooms, if you had a say in it, how would you choose to spend your stag do? Surely not everyone's a fan of flying off to Prague or Vegas just to enjoy a few drinks. In fact, your bride will most likely feel a lot happier knowing you're on 'home' ground and only a short drive away (just in case you have a bad hangover). 

Aztec Hotel & Spa in Bristol is organising a Beer Tasting Evening on Thursday 30th April and you could be one of their special guests! Whether you already know a thing or two about brewery or just enjoy drinking it, this is your chance to try an impressive range of beers and food masterclass in the newly refurbished Aztec Bar.  

All you need to do is tell your best man about this event and let him gather all your mates for a special celebration weekend. Rest assured though, not all stag dos end up disastrously, despite what Doug and his troublesome friends ('The Hangover' series) went through. You CAN have a fun and memorable experience without ending up in hospital in the build up to your wedding.
