Let’s taste some fall beers!

Bring your best fall beer! Something brown (like falling leaves), something red (like red heirloom corn), or something spooky and ghostly (like a dia de los muertos 💀). Bring what you think would be yummy!

What is Beer Book Club (BBC)?

This is a great opportunity to hang out with friends, taste some beer, enjoy yourself, and celebrate fall. It’s a semi-guided, pot luck beer tasting where we all learn a thing or two about a thing or two! Here’s how it works.

  • Everyone brings some beer that fits the theme

    • How much beer? Enough to share with the group…6ish generally does it, but if it’s something nice and comes in a 4 pack, that’s fine. If it’s something that comes in a 22oz bottle, that’s cool too (maybe consider 2). If it’s something exquisite that comes in a single 11.2 oz bottle, that’s fine as long as I get to taste some 😊. Remember, sharing is caring!

  • Everyone brings beer in this theme and we try to try them all

  • I’ll provide some snacks, but if you’re in the mood for anything specific, bring it!

    • If anyone wants to bring a cake, we can do that too. If everyone brings a cake…well that’ll be a challenge, wouldn’t it!

  • I’ll have a tasting notebook, feel free to bring/start yours

  • I’ll provide some beer tasting notes, we’ll all pretend these are super insightful

The theme: Summer Sip

This BBC theme is “Spooky Season.” So bring your best ‘Spooky,’ ‘Season,’ or ‘Spooky Season” themed beer. If you don’t know what that means, that’s fine. Bring a gose, those are salted and you can say “See, it’s seasoned!” Bring a nut brown ale because those are great fall beers, I love nut browns (seriously, bring one). Bring a Halloween themed beer because that’s spooky! Bring an Ichabod Crane beer because of the headless horseman/being metal AF (seriously, I’m pretty sure Pennsylvania knows how to make beer). Bring a beer that features Tony Hawk wiping out hard (a fall themed beer…get it? 🤣). Bring a Mexican chocolate and chili beer with a bigass skull on the label, because that’d be rad! Don’t bring a pumpkin beer, because everyone is probably thinking that already and you want to be different.

Only rule: please don’t bring anything from beer sales. Second ‘only rule:’ bring what you like and, when in doubt, make up an excuse as to why it fits the theme.

Here’s some neat beers that aren’t in theme 🤷‍♂️
