For Venues
Turn every table into a party.
Guests scan a card on the table and play a blind tasting of your own pours. You find out what they loved, what they’d buy, and what to put on the menu next.

How it works
Set up once. Learn every night.
Build your tasting
Add what you pour or serve, pick the traits guests should score, like hoppiness or body, and add your own trivia questions if you like.
Put a card on the table
Print your branded QR card. The first guest to scan hosts and friends join — no app download or account needed to play.
See what sells
Every blind rating, ranking, and “I’d buy this” rolls up into results and plain-language insights once enough guests finish.
Try it like a guest
One table, four pours, zero labels.
Tap through a guest’s night at a sample venue. Each step shows what you learn from it.

Your data
Know what they’ll order before the menu changes.
Because every pour is blind, you hear what guests actually taste, not what the label told them. The numbers below are from a sample tasting.
The takeaways, written for you.
Once a tasting has enough guests, Palate Party turns the numbers into a short list of plain-language findings. Each one shows the evidence behind it and a suggested next step.
Group favorite and finish
Where each pour ranked when guests put them in order, not just how they scored.
“I’d buy this”
Purchase intent for every pour, and the gap between what guests liked and what they’d actually pay for.
Does the label help or hurt?
Guests guess each brand. You see how many recognized it, and whether knowing changed their score.
Guest comments
Every tasting note, word for word, sorted into positive, neutral, and negative.
Make it yours
Your bar, your brand.
Your logo and colors
On the printed table card and the page guests land on when they scan it.

Questions venues ask
Do guests need to download an app?
No. Guests scan the card and play in their phone’s browser. They can use the app if they already have it, but no account or download is required.
When do results show up?
Once 10 guests have finished a tasting. Until then you’ll see a progress count, so a single table’s opinions aren’t mistaken for a trend.
What can I put in a tasting?
Anything you pour or serve: beer, wine, cider, spirits, coffee, chocolate, and more. You choose the products, the traits guests score, and any questions you want to add.
