“My Big Date” reveals Valentine’s Day brunch and brew menu
 
Loveland, Colorado February 2, 2016 – In its third year, My Big Date represents three outings on Valentine’s Day weekend in Loveland, Colorado including a brunch and brew tours and spirits tours.
 
The Brunch & Brew tours featured a brunch at Loveland, Colorado’s award-winning Grimm Brother’s Brewhouse. Catering will be provided by Taste, a Loveland-based catering company owned and operated by Vicky Bittner.
 
Bittner sat down with the brewers at Grimm Brothers Brewhouse to create a special four-course Valentine’s Day brunch menu for My Big Date.
 
The first course is a fresh fruit streusel served with The Pack of Scoundrels, a German style beer that originated in Hannover, Germany in 1526. It’s a crisp, light malt beer with a bouquet of spices.
 
The second course features a wild mushroom Parmesan polenta with prosciutto benedict covered in a green chili hollandaise with balsamic reduction. This rich dish will be served with Liquid Zoo, a Weizenbock style beer that’s big and malty with some Hefeweizen characteristics of clove and banana.
 
Things will get spicy during the third course that features hash brown potatoes served with sriracha ketchup and an ancho chili honey. This course is paired with a GABF medal winner –
Snow Drop Kottbusser Ale, a 7.1% ABV beer that goes with everything, but is an especially nice complement to fiery foods.
 
Brunch will finish with a caramelized pineapple jalapeno bread pudding served with maple syrup. This dessert has been paired with a Bleeding Heart S’mores Porter.
 
Every year Grimm Brothers Brewhouse brews a unique Bleeding Heart beer in celebration of Valentine’s Day, an important day in Loveland, Colorado, the Sweetheart City. Each year it is so popular that the tap room is often sold out by Valentine’s Day. This year’s guests of My Big Date are sure to get a taste of this rare beer.
 
My Big Date packages are available on Saturday, February 13, 2016. The VIP package, available on February 14 only, is sold out. For more information go to ValentinesDayinLoveland.com.
 
My Big Date is brought to you by My Big Day, LLC, NOCO Short Bus Tours, LLC and HeidiTown.com, and has been endorsed by Visit Loveland. For more information on the subject matter of the press release call Heidi Kerr-Schlaefer at (970) 213-2354, email [email protected].

*a post originally from HeidiTown.com, by Heidi Kerr-Schlaefer

Valentine’s Day is two weeks away and I’ve got the perfect outing for you and your honey – especially if you like beer and food.

Valentine’s Day in Loveland, My Big Date, lets participants experience Loveland, Colorado’s coffee, brewery, distillery and foodie scene. The Brewery & Spirits Tour package sold out quickly, and there are only seats left on our Brunch & Brew Tour. I am one of your My Big Date hosts and I guarantee that it’s like nothing else you have ever experienced.

You and your mate will board the NOCO Short Bus Tours bus at The Promenade Shops at Centerra in East Loveland. The bus will transport you to beautiful downtown Loveland where you will start your morning with a coffee tasting at Loco Artisan Coffeehouse. Owner, Tom Helm, is pairing three of his handcrafted, locally roasted coffees with a savory treat for our guests.

The next stop is Loveland Aleworks where you’ll be greeted with one of Aleworks’ famous beermosas. Next up is a four-course brunch that has been expertly paired with four different beers. Loveland catering company, Taste, worked with Aleworks to create these unique brunch items.

About the book:
Ever notice an affectionate couple and wonder what their secret is?  Realizing that simple gestures and interactions count as foreplay adds a special intention to how couples communicate with each other all day long.  14 Days of Foreplay helps couples initiate conversations and interactions that build intimacy.  Marriage and family therapists Monica Lieser and Tianna Rooney offer simple, creative strategies to improve the way couples relate on a daily, and nightly, basis. From fully clothed make-out sessions to spilling saucy, appreciative secrets, the activities recommended are designed to suit couples of all ages, whether shy or boisterous. Utilizing the fun and playful gestures of intention proposed in 14 Days of Foreplay will bring a couple closer together in meaningful ways. Lieser and Rooney have created a fun, activity template that invites partners to follow creative suggestions with a playful mindset. Couples guided by 14 Days of Foreplay will truly speak and listen to one another, creating a new frame for insightful understanding and trust. The time spent reading, acting on, and discussing the book’s activities will enrich all aspects of a relationship, including problem solving, expressing emotion, and coping with change, loss, or trauma. Those who invest honesty into the process will be rewarded with the ability to embrace the joys and triumphs of life. Enhanced intimacy and communication are tools for expressing new and changing wants and desires, and for knowing how to listen and turn toward one another even when turning away is an instinctive response.  Make the future a priority by investing in 14 Days of Foreplay.
