Scott,

Here is some info for immediate release to the first State Brewers:

I just received my “Book & the Cook” flyer from U of Penn, announcing the annual beer tasting with Michael Jackson. The 15th annual–gee, we must’ve attended the first annual! Do you want me to scan it and send it to you? It is coming up on March 12. Cost is $45. Do I detect a club function coming up?

Cheers,
Jeff
