Drinking a Beer in all 351 towns in Massachusetts
Cant believe the wife is on board with this but in October i came up with an idea that in 2013 i want to drink a beer in every town in MA. I did research and discovered only about 280 towns have a bar/restaurant so ill have to improvise in those towns (mostly in the berkshires). Every location im taking a pic with a sign and holding a beer or taking a sip. If anyone is from MA and have good ideas for any towns lemme know.
FB is Mass BeerTour
Twitter @351SamChallenge (cant believe i opened a twitter account)
If people feel like watching my progress.
If nothing else atleast it keeps me away from the track

don't bother going to these towns, they are all dry ones. i had thought that Wellesley was one too, but they must have caved in lately!

Cool idea.
I believe you can drink in a dry town, but not sell or buy.
See if you can drink a different beer in all 351 towns

Well i contacted sam adams and they are as excited about this as me. Ill be having #351 at the sam adams brewery. Ive had some surprisingly good feedback. Ocean spray is letting me take a pic in a cranberry bog, this weekend at F1 racing they are putting me in a racing suit holding a trophy and drinking my Sam. I have some.other fun things lined up. As for the dry towns i am working on some ideas

Very cool Zippy -- hope you'll post your pics as you go. I'm sure once you get going you'll find some very interesting opportunities.
You know these small towns love to print local stories that in a big city wouldn't get the time of day. I'm sure if you sent out some letters/emails to the local papers you would build a pretty good press clipping scrap book and before you know it you'll be featured on CNN.
Love it

You should try drinking a beer in all 57 States. You might get a grant.
