tasting flight

Pour progression lineup

A tasting flight is a set of small portions of wine, beer, whiskey, or other beverages served together for comparison.

The flight typically features three to six samples, allowing drinkers to explore varieties, regions, or styles side by side: We ordered a tasting flight of local IPAs.

The term borrows from flight's sense of a group moving together.
