The film concludes with an open ending with Swanberg stating "it's hard for me, knowing how uncertain the world is, to put a certain, definite ending on a movie. Wilde would later comment that the cast was "hammered the entire movie." The actors actually drank real beer during the filming and even did real work for the brewing company. The film was shot in an actual brewery, called Revolution, where one of the female brewers named Kate was the basis for Wilde's character. įilming took place in Chicago, Illinois in July 2012. The goal of doing it that way is to keep everybody engaged and create situations that feel fun and natural".

He said, "knowing that the structure was already pretty heavily in place, it was about letting the actors own their characters, and have a big say in the clothes that they wore, and in the interactions that they have with each other." He added: "The improv was used to mainly make the middle of the movie more complicated, and less predictable than a typical romantic comedy would be." Swanberg also stated "They need to be listening to each other and reacting honestly and I need to be paying really close attention because there’s not a script to fall back on. Relying heavily on improvisation is a key feature of the Mumblecore film movement. Instead of a script, the actors received outlines which covered the major plot points and were told each day what had to happen in that day's scenes. Just to tell a complicated adult that was funny, that managed to remain funny even though it was getting into serious, interesting things. I wanted to do something about Craft Beer and set in the Craft Beer world but also I was inspired by Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice, a Paul Mazursky movie. The idea to set the film in a brewery came when director Joe Swanberg received a brewing set-up as a birthday present.
