We try all and accept all as they are. We meet twice a month, the first and third Thursday at local bars that have a good craft beer selection. And one Saturday a month we tour a local (or not to distant) brewery or host a bottle share!

I am thinking meetups at my house on occassion when we need an outlet - say for a sewing machien or hot glue gun!  And having other m …
