In a couple of recent conversations, Beer Activist and Maryland resident Chris O'Brien had explored the possibility of a loose alliance of mid-Atlantic area beer bloggers.
It sounded like a viable idea to me.
So I've created a widget (along YFGF's sidebar) that lists the most recent postings from eight regional beer blogs (other than this one).
For name purposes (see below), I've dropped mid-Atlantic in favor of Chesapeake. And for wieldy purposes, I've limited Chesapeake to Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia.
Introducing: C.R.A.B.B. — The Chesapeake Region's Alliance of Beer Bloggers
- Baltimore Beer Guy
- Beer Activist
- Beer Haiku Daily
- Beer in Baltimore
- Beer in Baltimore.com [added March 2009]
- Belgian beer and travel
- DC Beer.com [originally added December 2008]
- Kasper On Tap
- Musings Over a Pint
- Relentless Thirst [added December 2008]
LAST UPDATED: 2009.12.20
- Removed: Clipper City's Hugh Sisson.Brewery blogs considered a separate category. More about brewery blogs here.
- Kasper On Tap Web address has moved from the Baltimore Sun to hosting by Baltimore Beer Week.
- Added: Hurra Bier!
- Added: Beltway Beer.
It's not really an alliance ... yet. But if you publish a beer blog and you live in the tri-jurisdictional area, drop me a line, or leave a comment, and I'll add your blog to the list.

I like it! Sounds like a good reason to get together over beer. When do we meet? :-)
Okay, Tom, drop me the HTML or whatever and I'll see if I can get Blogspot to cooperate with me and let me add the same to my blog. You might also want to add Lew Bryson's blog; he definitely covers out turf, at least sometimes.
Sounds like a great idea, as a former resident of the area I know I'd be interested in reading from such folks, though since I am in Raleigh I don't meet you guidleines, good luck with it!

An alliance... Wow!
How do I get the C.R.A.B.B. sidebar widget for my site?
Blogger has a "gadget" that does the work. If you publish with a service other than Blogger, simply listing the blogs with links would work.
I'm certain, however, that there are widgets out there that would act as publishable RSS aggregators. I'll look.
I recently came accross your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I dont know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.
