Beer isn?t the only thing brewing at craft breweries, love is too.Breweries have long been known as community spaces with the power to bring people together, but there is a lesser-known connection between craft beer and romance, whether it started in a taproom as a first date or became shared experiences between couples, nothing is sweeter than a craft beer love story.The Phoenix has hosted engagement parties, a few weddings, and many receptions. You can often spot engagement or wedding photos happening at the brewery.A vow renewal just seems like a perfect fit with Valentine?s Day approaching. Craft Beer-loving married couples are invited to renew their vows on Saturday, February 11th in the production facility of the Phoenix Brewing Company for a non-denominational group vow renewal ceremony.Couples can rededicate their love at the vow renewal led by Phoenix brewers. The production facility will open at 5 pm and the ceremony will start at 5:30 pm. The Production facility, located directly next door to the taproom, will be open until 7 pm for couples to continue their celebration.What should participants wear? Suggested attire is their favorite brewery apparel, but really it is all about the couples. Guests will have the opportunity to snap photos at a selfie station. And cake will also be available, while it lasts.Registration is not required, but couples should be 21 and over to participate.The vow renewal ceremony does not have any legal significance. Couples do not need to bring their marriage license to participate.
