Are there any in existence who are formed on here? I'm getting pretty jealous of the beer community out in Pittsburgh, and after meeting some people out at EBF who all are part of one, it would be cool to have something similar near me. I'm not too much of a snob, and I don't have a treasure trove of rare beers to share or anything like that, but it would be cool to have get-togethers around the city to enjoy and discuss great beer. As awesome of a beer city that we have, where there are beer events going on all the time, it would be hard for me to believe that something like this doesn't already exist, even if it's just a happy hour club. If so, please enlighten me... To provide perspective on my locale, I work in the Lansdale/North Wales/Ambler area and spend the weekends mainly in Fishtown
Wait you live in Philly and are jealous of Pittsburgh's beer scene?! Nothing against either as I live between them both tpbut that's a new one to me. There are plenty of Philly guys that have, and look for people for their tasting groups. Hopefully some of them reach out to you.
I was looking for the same info. My wife and I attended the BA bottle share in and were astounded. We'd love to find a small group to get together for other beer shares. Please let us know if there's a group looking for a few extra people. Steve in Philly
There is at least one large annual tasting that's open to anyone. This year's is long over but it will be around again if history is any guide. http://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/9th-annual-stone-soup-ba-beer-gathering.235282/ BTW: you also should find the upcoming Beer Week events a useful place to connect with people.
Follow Philly beer scene on twitter or the Internet. They have shares from time to time. Probably planning one soon with the weather becoming so nice. - Joe
