Valentines Day and Beer

[MeridianFC]

Any particularly good Valentine's Day and Beer events around? I got an E-mail from GB that they're tying in their tasting menu to the day. I was going to call the Reef to see if that had anything special on. Anything else folks are aware of?

Well, I WAS going to mention the cool thing going on at New Belgium in Ft. C, CO, but since this is in the MID-ATLANTIC forum... ;)

Unless you're providing the plane tickets that's not doing me much good.

Yeah, it is sorter difficult to tell which forum you're in any more when you sneak in from "Today's Posts."
