    Don't know if this is the right place, But i'm trying to start a small beer tasting group. I'm thinking about trying to keep it to harder to find beers and homebrews and keep the age range on the younger side. Does anyone have any advice for starting one? Like what's a good number of people, what's a good way to make sure a few aren't always supplying much harder or rarer beers then everyone else, ect. I have a few people that I've talked to.

    I would post in your regional forum.
    Might help entice some local guys.

    Cheers!

    I've never organized a tasting group, so I can't give advice there. However, I'd suggest you also find out if any local bottle shops or pubs have weekly tasting events. You and your group could be regulars at those. They're a lot of fun, you can meet great people, and you never know what you'll have the opportunity to try.
