The event starts and culminates at a designated "Goose Nest" and in total, the hunt takes about two hours. As a reward, the top players are presented with prizes from the Goose Island Beer Co.

In celebration of Goose Island's products spreading across the nation, in addition to this fun hunt, the beer brand is also setting up a number of tastings as part of 'Migration Week.' Upcoming destinations on Goose Island's "flight path" include a number of major cities across North America, from Vancouver and Montreal to Boston, Miami and Portland.
