This was a whole new deal, because we had it as a part of AXIS (since I was no longer employed at Park Row).  And, since we had several who don’t really drink, I decided to group the brews into three categories...pale ales, ciders and sodas.  We had three that really hit big...the Fire Rock Pale Ale from the Kona brewery in Hawaii was a big hit for a beer.  Rarely  have we had one that averaged over four on a 1-5 scale.  The peach cider was an almost universal hit, and even people who don’t really like soda enjoyed the Sprecher Vanilla Soda.  By the time it was over, there were bottles strewn everywhere, and a good time was had by all.
