Focused On Kansas City
Jul 16, 2009 Events
Today is the 2nd day of a series of events in Kansas City for WomenEnjoyingBeer. After an announcement posted on the Brewers Association Forum asking for volunteers, willing breweries and other enthusiasts who may be interested in participating, here we are.
WEB will be collaborating with Boulevard Brewing for a focus group, hosting a private event (tasting pairing/recreational – group of friends), and collaborating again – this time with Gordon Biersch for a focus group.
Looks to be a fabulous line up!

A hearty, glass raised thank you to all who indicated interest, offered to collaborate or help, and enthusiastically are wanting to further the idea of real women drinking beer.
The response speaks to the fact that there are lots of engaged people – professionally and personally – who are interested in women & beer.
Let’s recruit more.
KC is a big beer town in many ways and I am very excited to be there. We’ll be back in fact in September again – so if you missed it this time, get in touch, tell me how you want to work together – business wise or personally.
Look for St. Louis or your city soon as well as men’s focus groups. Tell me what you want and we can make it happen.

Kansas City, Here I Come
Jul 2, 2009 Events
Thanks to all who responded to my request via the Brewers Association daily Forum for interest per upcoming WomenEnjoyingBeer Kansas City activities. I posted that I was looking for people in the KC area to participate in events – focus groups (women & beer), perhaps some recreational events – tastings/pairings, and marketing to women workshops.
The response has been great!
Thanks to Gordon Biersch, Boulevard, Tallgrass, KC Hopps, The Worthog, Jennifer Helber and the others – looking very forward to connecting.
And there’s still room for more.
So:
- If you’re an enthusiast, contact me to attend an event.
- If you’re a brewer or brewery and want to either have your beers highlighted to host an event at your establishment, contact me.
- If you’re a media person or blogger, I’d be very glad to have you join one of the events and take pictures, etc. Beer makes good news.
All events will be posted directly (by end of week hopefully) on the WEB site too – ‘Events’ page.
Hope to see you in KC soon (July 16th – 18th).
Cheers ~
