Calling all indecisive explorers: one of the best ways to get familiar with a brewery’s offerings is to sample multiple options on tap! Forgo the tough selection at the bar and choose a handful that catch your eye. There’s just something about ordering a flight that feels like a vacation – a simple way to treat yourself. Typically, a flight consists of four to six tasters, so you don’t have to go all-in on one option.
But flights aren’t exclusive to breweries. In Midland, you can try flights of many varieties, whether it’s beer, mimosas, or gourmet popsicles. Read on for our favorite flights of Midland.
Beer Flight at Tall City Brewing Co.
First off – a classic flight at our favorite local brewery. Choose your top picks from their flagship and year-round beer options, but be sure to add in a seasonal selection or two. The Five Hour Drive Honey Blonde Ale or the Haze Y’all Hazy IPA are two great flagship choices for any beer fan. Their seasonal beer selections come and go like tumbleweeds, so check out their latest menu and try them before they’re gone!
Mimosa Flight at Cowboy Prime
Go ahead and clear your weekend morning plans and head to Cowboy Prime for an upscale brunch and a mimosa flight to sip on. You can pair three of their fresh juices with a bottle of bubbles to add some flair to your Butter Pecan French Toast or maybe a Lobster Benedict. Share with the table, or get multiple to try each juice and bubbly combo.
6-Packs at Popbar
A 6-pack of handcrafted gelato on a stick is perfect for a hot West Texas day. Is it actually a flight? We think so. You can get six varieties of the most POPular combinations, including Hazelnut with white chocolate and sprinkles, strawberry with dark and white chocolate, vanilla with chocolate and rainbow sprinkles, and green tea with chocolate and waffle cone bits. They’re all delicious and almost too cute to eat.
Bubbly Flight at Hoop & Barrel
The Bubbly Bar at Hoop & Barrel has a fabulous boozy brunch menu. The Bubbly Flight is a crowd favorite with your choice of four juices to pair with champagne. Choose from The OG – orange juice, and mix in some fun options like grapefruit juice, strawberry lemonade, cranberry pomegranate juice, or cranberry peach juice.
Ordering a flight of any kind makes an outing more fun, and it’s a unique way to explore any city. No need to settle on selecting one thing while you’re out and about – plan your Midland visit around these fantastic flights!
