Datey, Lakewood Brewing Co. Toast The Perfect Match at Datey 35+

Singles 35+ will get a reason to leave the dating apps and head to a taproom this Valentine week when Lakewood Brewing Company and Datey team up for a curated dating-night experience at Lakewood’s Garland taproom and beer garden.

The Datey 35+ event runs Thursday, February 12, 2026, from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., with check-in open from 7:00 p.m. to 7:45 p.m. at Lakewood Brewing Company, 2302 Executive Drive, Garland, TX 75041. The meetup is hosted by Datey founder Abbey Hagan; Lakewood posted a press release about the collaboration on Brewbound/BevNET on Feb. 3, 2026 and Eventbrite carries the full event listing and ticketing details.

Eventbrite lists tickets at $11–$13 per person and notes that “Ticket purchase required for admission (details below).” The platform also lays out the organizer’s refund policy verbatim: “All ticket sales are final. Refund requests are accepted up to 48 hours before the event start time. After that, tickets are non-refundable (but may be transferred unless otherwise stated).” Prospective attendees should purchase tickets on Eventbrite and plan to arrive within the check-in window to confirm entry.

Organizers are pitching a relaxed, social atmosphere built around Lakewood’s taproom offerings and low-pressure activities. Eventbrite’s description promises “Craft beers (including fan favorite Temptress!),” plus “Board games + lawn games” and “Taproom & beer garden hangout space.” Marketing lines used in the listing include, “Meet fun singles 35+ at Lakewood Brewing Co. for drinks, laughs, and good vibes!” and “Come for the beer. Stay for the connections.” The event is billed as a Valentine-week meetup intended to facilitate in-person mingling without dating apps.

For the local craft-beer community and older singles in the Dallas area, the partnership signals a continued trend of breweries doubling as neighborhood gathering spots and curated social venues. Lakewood Brewing Company provides the hospitality and beer program while Datey supplies the event concept and hosting, reflecting a model other taprooms may adopt to reach targeted demographics or boost weekday traffic.

Practical takeaways: if you are 35 or older and planning to attend, reserve a ticket through Eventbrite ahead of time, expect to show up between 7:00 p.m. and 7:45 p.m. to check in, and budget for on-site drink purchases beyond admission since the listing notes beer availability but does not specify whether drinks are included. Lakewood and Datey are positioning the night as a low-pressure way to meet neighbors over a favorite local pour.

This collaboration could become a template for more age-targeted brewery events; watch for future Datey pop-ups or additional Lakewood-hosted socials if the Feb. 12 meetup draws a solid crowd and strong social buzz.
