Had great fun in Brasil with Ron Pattinson, judging together, sharing stories, having cocktails…

Not happy about Christmas music everywhere. But happy my favorite Christmas beer is here.

From the cellar: Shmaltz Brewing Co. Monumental Jewbelation 2006 special release. Like a 10% barley wine. Well kept. L’Chaim.

Happy New Year. Toasting with Michael Tonsmeire at Sapwood Cellars Brewery. I shared a Brett Riesling Saison from Juguetes Perdidos in Argentina. Great beers here too!

Take a New York boy to a Ramones cover band concert in Brazil. Good call.

.Gordon Strong has a great analogy: “When you are first learning about beer, it’s more important to talk about the differences between porter and IPA than to enumerate all the various kinds of porter or IPA.”

Best before 10-05-02. I beg to differ.

Saturday in Brasil

First beer in San Diego. North Park Beer Co. Hop-Fu! Might as well calibrate on a world class IPA.

Quite possibly the best Heineken of my life, fresh from the tank. Thanks @heineken_sa. Great job.

Today is Women's Day in South Africa. Women are generally underrepresented in the beer industry and today we're saluting them all! Our core team is made up of some strong women, and our judging team too. Cheers ladies, you rock 🍻

Good 31A Alternative Grain beer. Shows the grain as well as the classic base style.

Happy to try some great British beer with Pete Brown !
