Today, Jim at Beaver Creek Brewery called me back in regard to a trip I had been trying to arrange since we had the "Masher mobile." He said he'd love to have us over on a Saturday of our choosing for a special tour starting at 2pm. Since the tasting room is open from 4-8pm, it'd be just us for the first couple hours, which is pretty cool. The event would be fairly low-key, a nice tour, maybe a Q&A or roundtable session and, of course, some sampling of beers.
With that said, we'll have to determine a Saturday that works for the majority of folks. We can discuss that online in this thread or at a future meeting or event. Since we no longer have a 12 passenger mini-bus, we'll want to see what arrangements we can make for transportation as well. Either way, it sounds like a fun time!
On a related note, he said he will be in Bismarck in May and might be interested in visiting us at that time between marketing stints. Just an FYI for everyone.
