Anyone interested in doing this with beer? Let me know, I will start a beer tasting thread.

I would love to start a "tasting club" here. I think it would introduce people to new wines, help train palettes, most importantly get people thinking and learning about wine.
heres how it would work:
-Every week/ 2 weeks someone picks a varietal and/or region- this can be chosen out of a hat or have a list set up.
Example- Joe_Smith picks- California Syrah
Everyone goes out and buys a bottle off CA syrah and posts tasting notes- we can eventually modify this to CA Syrah under $20 or Dry Creek Valley Syrah, etc.
-We come up with standard tasting guidelines- notes for sight / nose / taste - etc
- You can taste as many wines as you want to during the alloted time period.
What do you guys think? We can add some guidelines along the way.
