    Hello everyone,

    I moved out to Salt Lake from the Orange County/San Diego area of CA almost a year ago. Being there I was used to having awesome bottle shares and good times hanging out with fellow beer nerds.

    Now in Salt Lake it's a bit different, as the laws are significantly different, and it seems the interest level in Craft Beer is pretty low.

    Just curious if there's anyone out there that has a nice cellar, willing to share with others, and BS about good beer.

    Looking forward to seeing if anyone like that exists out here!

    Cellar is not so great but just came back from New England with a bunch of Alchemist, Treehouse, Trillium, and other assorted NE goodies.

    We have beer tastings at my house regularly. Lots of great beers, from all corners of the earth. Send me a PM, would love to have more beer nerds at our shares.

    there are a few of us that maintain cellars with beers that most craft beer lovers would kill to have.

    I'm interested in this as well. We have more beer than we can drink!

    Awesome! Should definitely set something up soon.
    Same here. Too many brews, especially the kind that I can't take down solo or with one other.

    Lets do it! Maybe next month? We just started demolishing our kitchen. We usually do mid-Afternoon on Sundays. I'm located in Liberty Wells, on the edge of Sugarhouse.

    yes! I can't crack a big 750 for 2 people most of the time. Some of them are hard even for 4 people when you need to function the next day.

    I am interested in this too. I'm currently not in Utah, but if there are any tastings/meet-ups this January/February, I'd love to join!

    We drive out there once a year. Always bring more than enough beer to get us through our visit. Happy to haul beer from these parts & CO that way.

    Beer tastings are the way to go. I wish there places that did beer tastings like what the epic tapless tasting room does. I'm always up for a meet up.

    I haven't been out of town for a beer run for a while. I can at the very least bring some tasty home made snacks.

    We cracked Baptista last night. It was pretty good.

    Excited to try double barrel tomorrow.

    Just came back from Denver with some solid Avery & Great Divide pickups. Would love to swap beers with another SLC beer geek!

    Shoot me a PM and let's meet up for some brews.

    It's so ridiculous that it takes close to two months for the DABC to order beer. What a joke!
