GABF article in Taps: Canada's Beer magazine

I just received the Winter issue of Taps: Canada's Beer magazine, and I'm happy to say that I have a 700 word piece on the 2009 Great American Beer festival.

In addition to discussing America's great beer festival, I also mentioned some other events that occur during GABF week, such as Dr. Bill Sysak's legendary tastings at Falling Rock Taphouse.

Taps is available at: www.tapsmagazine.com.

An on-line version of the magazine is available, as well as the print version.

"Going Sour at GABF" article in Celebrator Beer News

I have an 800 word article about what I call "Sour beer Rampage

II" in the December issue of Celebrator Beer News.

I wrote about many of the great sour beers (and breweries producing

them) that were available at GABF in 2009. The breweries were

Cascade Brewing, of Portland, Or.; Upstream Brewing, of Omaha,

Neb.; Trinity Brewing, of Colorado Springs, Co.; and the always

superb Russian River, Lost Abbey and Port Brewing.

I focused on sampling sour beers at three of the four

festival sessions.

Yum. It was great!
