We often forget that there are a lot of people outside the happy bubble we live in that don't even know that beer is a key component of "the good life," and one thing we can do as Cicerones is to spread that knowledge.

What I'm Talkin' 'Bout
Once a year, in early fall, we invite around a dozen hardy, fearless souls to join us for a Sunday Brunch. This usually runs from around noon to 7PM, as we end up running off on tangents, fetching interstitial beers, investigating other ideas for beer matches, and generally having a whale of a time. (And ending up feeling like a beached whale by the time it's all over...) Here's the menu from last fall:
