    Hi guys, I was wondering of there are any tasting groups in the Tampa/St. Pete area or if anyone would want to put one together. I've enjoyed meeting a few BA's since I joined this site and have also come to the realization that I will never be able to drink all the beers in my cellar by myself either because of the strength of the beers or the urge to wait for a special occasion (like a tasting) to open them. Let me know what you all think.

    Cheers :slight_smile:

    I've often wondered the same thing.... I'd be interested in joining if a new group popped up!

    I'm game. A tread like this came up 9ish or so months ago and nothing really came of it but someone mentioned that a bottle sharing like gathering occured at St. Somewhere in Tarpon from time to time.

    If you want a raging asshole in your tasting who drinks your whales out of the bottle, send me a BM :slight_smile: I'm down!

    We'll have a Blabaer chugging contest to battle for the spot then...

    Sounds more like a champipple chugging contest is in order for this one!

    I'd be interested as well..I'm sure Greg wouldn't mind a tasting at Rapp either.

    Haha, if you want to chew the fat with salty old drunks who are a wealth of information on how not to live your life, its a fantastic place.

    haha true true...but why socialize with them at a tasting? Your sense of humor should be all I would need good sir!:sunglasses: (other than some tasty brews of course)

    Did anyone have any specific venues in mind or know of a venue that would be cool with hosting? Time frame?
