Business & Beer Rebounds at The Brewery at Abigaile

If you have been following along the last few months, you may have noticed that the reviews of the most recent Business & Beer gatherings have had a tinge of discouragement in them. The reality is that we have been considering changing the format of Business & Beer from a monthly event to bi-monthly; we even considered disbanding. Our gathering last month at The Brewery at Abigaile changed all that as we had one of our largest gatherings in many months.

We had a nice mix of regulars, semi-regulars and first time attendees. Since it was also the anniversary of our sponsor Craft Beer Guy, we had a special raffle with the winner choosing between a couple bottles that were brought in. As we are now entering the summer season, it is expected that our gatherings should see an increase in attendance, at least until Daylight Standard Time returns.

Our next gathering of Business & Beer will be at King Harbor Brewing Company on June 11. King Harbor Brewing is located at 2907 182nd Street in Redondo Beach. Initially it was planned that we would meet at the King Harbor Brewing Company’s waterfront tasting room, but due to circumstances beyond our control we have had to change to the brewery itself as the satellite tasting room may not be ready in time and we would not know until the last minute. We will definitely include the new location sometime in the future. Business & Beer begins at 6:00 PM and runs until 8:00 PM.

If you come to this event you should be advised that it is Bring Your Own Mug Thursday, which means you can bring your favorite beer mug and they will fill it (within reason) at the same price as a standard pour. Additionally, they have a contest for the best mug and the winner wins a token for a free beer during a future visit.

Business & Beer is an informal business networking group with no rules such as mandatory meetings or dues. You do not need a special invitation to bring your friends as everyone is welcome. Bring your business cards and a willingness to network, we will provide the people to talk to as well as access to some great local beers.
