Whisky for Beer Drinkers

Post by Steve Beaumont »

Just testing the waters here, wondering if anyone would be interested in a seminar that would be cast as a sort of malt whisky 101. I know of a downtown site I can use and have a plan to keep costs down, so it would probably run 2 - 3 hours, feature at least 6 or 8 whiskies and hopefully cost less than $50.

Sure would, so far I've determined I like Speyside's in general, but haven't really explored scotch tastings yet

I guess this isn't as popular an idea as I thought it might be. Perhaps worth revisiting in the winter, though. Sorry to those who did express interest.

Venue shouldn't be a problem. How many would you need to make it worth your while? Thanks Stephen!

Guelph & area peeps, I will try to put this together with Steve and, if it happens, you'll be the first to know. Cheers!

I could join if its in Guelph, and I'm sure JB84 would too, as long as its on a Friday evening, or weekend.
