Gearing up for the holidays with wine, and yes, beer, tastings

Could there be a better way to gear up for the holidays than to sample a sip or two of wine or beer from this amazing list of tastings that comes to us via the heroic efforts of a Dayton-based wine listserv?

I think not. I. Think. NOT!

Read, attend, enjoy!
