    For the past 18 months I've been working in DC and had a really easy going weekly bottle share going and looking to re-create it. Now that I'm not travelling I find I have a lot of 22s/25s/750s that I can't finish by myself or my wife or friends/neighbors don't want to split with me.

    Here the concept: met on a week day night to share a few bottles of good beer - generally 90+ on BA but didn't have to be top 10 - talk beer, sports, whatever. With 4+ people you could can go though a bottle a person without hurting yourself in the morning.

    I'm near Foxboro so metro-west (Natick/Framingham area works) or the RI border (Foxboro/Attleboro/Pawtucket) could work. Could offer my place to start. Don't want to engage in a never ending forum discussion so we could always met at a bar to figure things out in person if that is easier.

    If you can find some people interested, then I'd be down for it especially because week day nights would work pretty well for me.

    Haven't got any other replies... There is a providence bottle share meet up that just started. Probably too far for me though.,,

    I'm in Franklin, might be up for it depending on the timing and what's expected in terms of bottles.

    @seanwhite you might want to check out the Vin Bin in Hopkinton if you haven't yet. Not a big selection, but some interesting stuff (Night Shift, lots of Evil Twin).

    Sounds like we're getting to critical mass to start planning a date and location. What to try for Thursday 28th? It the pats last preseason game we can watch the scrubs play.

    @HuskyHawk as far as expeditions don't want people raiding their cellar for whales. The way it worked people brought something they wanted to share there weren't any rules and it all worked out - even if there was a DP.

    I have sexual chocolate or some NODA or 5 sciences to offer up...

    Sounds good. I don't have much that isn't available locally, some Foley Bros., maybe one Heady. Suggestions would be helpful if we're doing this.

    I've got an Imperial Biscotti Break, and Lucedaor En Fuego, would be over 90 on BA.

    Im not to far from the RI border myself. If this is already at capacity would possibly like to join depending on location/date. Have some bottles I would love to share.
