Lean Startup Circle is dedicated to applying lean startup thinking and building lean startup leadership. We bring the San Francisco lean startup community together in a variety of formats (many of which involve beer) to learn from each other. What works? What doesn't? Is lean just a buzzword?

This meetup was started by Tiila, a woman who likes beer, and understands that beer can be enjoyed just like a fine wine, only perhaps with more of a sense of fun. In 2012, so that the meetup would continue, Gail Williams paid the annual administration fee and continued the group, expecting to have a little more free time than she seems to have had recently. Gail likes beer.  She has become a BJCP certified beer judge, a home brewer of sour beers and a freelance beer writer. She and her husband …

This group is an experiment, and partly a selfish one. I just finished grad school, moved out to the city, and finally have had some time to really explore what it is that I want out of life. And, shit! This stuff can be *difficult* to grapple with. For example, how do we achieve true happiness? What does "success" mean? What are the implications of mortality on daily life? Can we care more about the rest of the world than we currently do? Where the *hell* is Waldo? If you're in your twenties …

This is a group for all of us that moved here and want to meet new people and have a bit of a chat about the old homeland over a refreshing beer or ale.

Do you want to learn to make - or get even better at making - your own all-grain homebrewed beer (or wine or mead, soda, etc) in a supportive, fun group? A lot of women want to homebrew but feel intimidated by the science, the jargon, and the equipment. A lot of women hang around or help while "the guys" are brewing, but are afraid to take on this often very male hobby for themselves. All women (-cis and -trans) welcome. Let's brew do-it-yourself all-grain together, share our experience and curi …

i regularly want to know if one product is better then another, or if i should be buying the top shelf margarita instead of from the well, or maybe its the other way around. whats the best tasting cheddar, do i truly like coke better then pepsi or do i just say that? do Nips really suck compared to Cheez-Its and what makes those 10 different kinds of Gin at the store taste different? the only thing that keeps me from answering this question is money and memory. i don't have the money to order 22 …
