Mark: What do you want to taste for the June Tasting? I was thinking hefe, wit, weiss or anything wheat but that might be better for July.
- Tue at 6:39 AM
- KajII Ok, I was looking back at the groups tastings and we have not done a Belgian Ale tasting since April 2009. There are many varieties and its a lighter brew. So what do ya think?

Mark: Who's in for Porter next month? The tasting will be Feb. 6-12. Also, just an idea, but maybe we should have a special tasting Feb 29th for the leap year. Maybe a rare beer tasting or favorite beer tasting? Other ideas welcomed.
