Meetup group intended to explore Washington's craft beer scene. There are plenty of interesting taps around the city and some breweries as well.

An alternative that allows several women to live together and have separate 1-2 bedroomn apartments while also sharing some common space like kitchen, dining, deck, garden, craft/art studio space, etc. for enjoying each others company. The research I've done shows that co-housing communities tend to be expensive and they often have long w …
