Was there a decision on timing / do I need to set up a zoom?

I never got any feedback one way or the other, so lets go with 4:30 PM EST.

Thanks for setting it up!

Finally made it out to pick up some letters. Grabbed B, G, K, L, M, P, and T to go along with the E I already had. Many local, all Texan. Except for K, all are either "new to me" breweries or brews.

Still up for a Zoom? What time works for everybody? 4:30 EST?

That sounds good to me. Fits better with the Scrabble scoring idea.

Fabulous idea. Thanks for volunteering. I'll take Z to start. Do you need to know the brewery and beer name in advance? No need to provide in advance unless you want to share. Just figured I would keep a tally of letters so we know what we have and what we need. Do I get double letter/word score (o...

H and V have been spoken for OY. Breweries have not been names, but it is possible that the poster just opened up the fridge and picked the first two cans / bottles they found.

I'm with CBandB on the Pork Steaks. I'm with Bob on the ribeyes and the chicken breasts. Took me forever to figure out chicken breasts but now I can get them near perfect every time.
