Tasting commercial beers at one of the Homebrew meetups is a bit of a no-no!

After a few meets tasting HB and buying a few of the hosts offerings and even buying food you might ask if you could do a tasting of something special.

If you could get the owner and managers to taste and rate the beers then that would be more like a rep calling round.

QuoteWe can put out an ABP on social media, looking for a homebrew-friendly bar in Belfast that'd be willing to host monthly meets?

sounds good tube- you wanna do it? i have a contact in the hudson, which I think would be great. waiting to hear back from him. you wanna include them in any tweeting or facebooking or whatever you were thinking?
