It gets a bit tiresome hearing people say, “What? How did I miss it? Why didn’t I hear about that event?” With businesses relying more and more on social media to share information, it’s getting harder and harder to stay informed. The algorithms don’t really care about you missing that really cool beer event. I hope to combat the situation. On weekends when there’s interesting stuff happening, I’ll share what I know. If you’re hosting an event and want me to know about it, tell me about it using this form. Also, this is a good time to tell you about the Washington Beer Blog newsletter; leave the algorithms behind and you’ll never miss a story. Read about that and sign up here.
