We should definitely start something up, at least maybe local beer exchange. I am on my 3rd batch and still a newbie, I would love to try some new styles and meet some fellow brewers. I work in Manhattan (near Madison Square park) and live in Sheepshead Bay.
Maybe those of you that are in the city during the week would want to meet up for a drink at Blind Tiger? They have over 30 beers on tap and I went there for a Pumpkin beer night in October when they had like 20 Pumpkin beers.
I am on their mailing list and on Wed they have special nights, so this is what they had yesterday:
