Beer
Night has flourished throughout the entire millennium.
Below appears a list of key
dates, many of which have hyperlinks to further information.
You
can skip ahead to 2001, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006,
or the very latest
Beer Night.
4 March 2000
The very first Beer
Night, which at the time was dubbed "Beer Club."
15 April 2000
Did we really have
"Beer Club" on the night our taxes were due? Apparently.
10 June 2000
This was the last
Beer Night that appears in my calendar as "Beer Club."
15 July 2000
This Beer Night
was hosted by Andy at their old apartment in Uptown.
21 October 2000
So it took us over
three months to have Beer Night again? In this period Jon got engaged
and married Ann. Might have something to do with it.
18 November 2000
Happy Thanksgiving,
guys.

February 2001
When exactly did
we start the Blindfold Taste Test? Did it take this long? Or was it
a hoary tradition by now?
10 March 2001
Beer Night passes
its first birthday (and was held on Jon's half-birthday, if you care).

This one was hosted
by Andy at their new place in Jefferson Park.

May 2001
Does this one count?
It was held at Chief O'Neill's. Yeah,
I think it counts.
23 June 2001
Ah, a refreshing
beer on a hot summer night! (Truthfully, I don't remember if it was
at all hot.)

1 September 2001
This is the first
Beer Night after the registration of beernight.org. (I wish I could

December 2001 Beer Night #13
What
a shame that two and a half months pass without a
Beer Night! We make up for it by
officially counting how many Beer Nights there have
been and by launching BeerNight.org email accounts.
Also, we begin recording Blindfold Taste Test participants
and taking
photos.
