“ And malt does more than Milton can      To justify God's ways to man. ” —A. E. Housman LXII. Terence, this is stupid stuff A Shropshire Lad. 1896 About WikiProject Beer WikiProject Beer is a loose association of Wikipedians with an interest in beer who have come together to suggest and discuss ways of developing the beer and brewery information on Wikipedia. It was started in March 2005 and has gathered a considerable number of members, though not all are active. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there, or just dig in and start editing. Scope This WikiProject aims to compile thorough and accurate information on different breweries and varieties of beer, including but not limited to their qualities, origins, and uses. Participants You can join this project by adding your name on the participants list and placing the {{User WikiprojectBeer}} template on your user page.
