Founded in 2008, the Central Pennsylvania Beer Aficionado Group started as the Harrisburg Beer Meetup Group.  Our goal is provide monthly activities for beer, wine and alcohol aficionado's from Central Pennsylvania an opportunity to meet, discuss and enjoy the many great selections Central Pennsylvania has to offer. We are a laid back group group and easy to get along with.  Bring your taste buds to an upcoming meetup and find out for yourself.

This group is for those beer lovers who want to go beyond just drinking beer, but creating beer. A meetup to share recipes, techniques, but most of all homebrewed beer. Whether you are a wheat beer lover or a Irish stout drinker, this group welcomes all those who want to dabble in homebrewing.

Meetup group intended to explore Washington's craft beer scene. There are plenty of interesting taps around the city and some breweries as well. We'll try to sample some of their wares, and we'll do so in a way that respects the beverage, the craft, and each other (i.e., this is NOT for the binge crowd!).  Anyone interested in tasting and learning about a chronically underrated and underestimated craft, and doing so in moderation, is invited to join.  We do monthly events, and if you want to mee …

I'm starting this group because I would like to meet up with a group of good peeps on a regular basis to discuss the issues of the day like health care reform, recycling (just kidding), the bailouts, guns and gun policy, hunting, VA politics, and the answers to questions like, "Why are we here?" over massive quantities of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and Guinness:) Actually, just kidding. I don't personally want to get hammered, but a beer or two over some good political and philosophical discussion w …

A social group for all of us who are proud to be GenX and many of us no onger getting carded. We're going to explore craft brews in the Philadelphia area and make fun of the wine drinkers. Just kidding. Maybe. Open to everyone but focused on the tiny generation born between the years 1965 and 1985. Or if you: remember having to "learn" email, when making a phone call changed to 20 cents, think the 1980 Winter Olympics was the ultimate in sport history, Mike Schmidt, Dr. J, the Muppet Show, pegg …

Do you like meeting new people? Do you like hanging out and doing "stuff" then you have found the right group. Anything goes, literally means that. If you have an idea post it! We try to keep the events as close to Lansdale as we can, but we are not opposed to venturing further out for a great event. We are an active group, so please read the "About Us" section for information on what is expected from our members. The Group was lauched in January 2011 and has held several successful meetup's wit …

Meet other science lovers in your area! Whether it's chemistry, biology, physics, or geology, gather to meet others who like science! Science Cafés are informal discussions on a topic, led by an expert. Be warned however - this isn't your professors boring, powerpoint-driven spiel - it happens at bars, restaurants, or coffee shops, and the dialogue can be very interesting (and informative). A moderator gives everyone a chance to speak, while keeping the discussion lively. Based on the European …

This is a group for anyone looking to meet some good people and go for some excellent drinks (and maybe some food to wash it down).

Just a few people who like to informally read philosophy and talk about philosophy and drink beer. Those up for a short philsophical readings and a good-natured bi-weekly happy hour discussion should join us!

We are a group based in the DC Metro area that love craft beer and trying new things. Beer Snobs need not apply. We meet 2–3 times a month, the first Thursday of each month we meet at Meridian Pint in DC (starting January 2013) and the first Saturday a month we tour a local (or not too distant) brewery. We also have some outdoor activities such as hiking and biking followed by beer, bottle shares, beer dinners, and soon beer classes!

An actual meeting site for members of the American Preppers Network in the Harrisburg-York area of Pennsylvania, although anyone is welcome. Open to all faiths, beliefs and lifestyles. BAR NONE. What are we? A little of this, a little of that.  Maybe the beginnings of a survival group that plans to work together in the event of a “grid down” scenario or maybe a group of individuals focused on self preservation and care of our loved ones.  We'll see how it goes.  For now, we're a network..... Wha …

We're going to learn about brewing beer, different styles, gadgets, how to taste beer and submit your beer for competition. What we are not, is a social drinking club. We stress education and responsible drinking. You don't have to brew beer to join the club, but once you do, you'll be hooked (so be forewarned). This …

A forum just for area mead makers to discuss techniques, tastes, and the joy of the art. Sub-categories of mead are fair game, eg, melomels, metheglin, cyser, braggot, etc. However, traditional wine making and homebrewing discussions are generally excluded. They have enough help already!
