We are a group of people in the DC Metro area that love craft beer and trying new things! Beer Snobs need not apply! We are much to laid back to talk snobbery and say we hate this or that. We try all and accept all as they are. We meet 2–3 times a month, the first and third Thursday at local bars that have a good craft beer selection and one Saturday a month we tour a local (or not to distant) brewery or host a bottle share!

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 …

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 …

… This is not an environment for excessive drinkers or binge drinking.  Beer and other alcoholic drinks are just as tasty - if not more so - in moderation and they serve as a nice social lubricant and ice breaker.  So, let's keep it classy, people.  Many of these events will be held in public places so please be as respectful of the staff and facilities that allow us to use their space.  Tip decently, please, and don't walk out on your drinks.  Excessive drunken behavior and/or rudeness might get …

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.

Trying to create an informal forum for fish & wildlife biologists in the DC area to gather monthly to meet with like minded people.  Amidst the concrete jungle it would be nice to talk wildlife and find out what others in the field are doing. Hopefully this will lead to increased interaction, networking and knowledge of fish & wildlife seminars/events taking place in the DC area. Emphasis is definitely on socializing not beer drinking so non drinkers are more than welcome.

This is a casual group for people who want to get together, have a few beers, meet new people, and PLAY FOOSBALL.

Pubs in Ireland are often welcoming to any stranger with many of the locals more than happy to share stories of local folklore. This group is for people who enjoy the Irish pub atmosphere -- good food, good beer and good conversation. Whether you are new to the area and looking for a "home-away-from-home" experience or have been here for a while but find that you have outgrown the traditional "bar scene", we welcome you. Join us on our quest to find the publican in the area that pours the best G …

30's in NoVa: A social group for professional, fun thirty-somethings in the Northern Virginia suburbs.  We've outgrown doing shots on Wednesday nights (there are meetings to be awake for on Thursdays!) but we're still young enough to have fun doing things other than board games and falling asleep at 9pm.  Join us for activities including happy hours, hiking, concerts, local festivals, wine tastings, craft beer & brewery tours, dining out, outdoor activities, and whatever else we can think …

Socializin' in the Suburbs is a group for anyone that likes to have fun and meet new people! Do you enjoy dining out, happy hours, wine tasting, or beer sampling?

You've come to the right place because we enjoy all of these activities plus a whole lot more! Now, let's start planning some meetups!

The Couples of Prince William County and Surrounding Areas Meetup has an extremely wide variety of interests! It is very easy for us to find things we like to do. Some of our many activities include happy hours, cookouts, picnics, dinners out, wine tasting, festivals, theme parks, game nights, poker tournaments, bowling, hiking, beer sampling, concerts, plays, and traveling - we have taken the group on two cruises and a trip to Vegas! Please consider joining us if you are a couple that enjoys ha …

… Members must have a sense of humor (especially about yourself) - because conversations over Beers Before Noon can sometimes be a little rough.   There is no set age group.  No requirements as to the neighborhood you live in.  Please don't attend these meetups expecting some sort of singles events because those events can be....creepy....and that's not what anyone wants.  Beer, wine, and cocktails will be involved in many events, but not all of them.  Dogs will be involved in events when permitte …

Are you frustrated with an out of control government? Do you feel like you're the only one waiving a red flag and nobody's listening? Come join us once a month at a local bar for a beer and an opportunity for you to vent your frustrations and meet like minded people. You don't have to be an official Tea Party or 912 member. I believe it's important for us to establish a face to face local like minded community NOW to help all of us face the music in what's most likely to come in the near future. …
