Raise One For the Beer Hunter



The Beer Hunter, Michael Jackson, died a little over a week ago. He was a consummate and tireless promoters of good beer through his writing and even a long out of print television show. His work helped transform our notions of beer as a strictly blue collar drink and elevated brew into an art, on par with fine wine. Jackson was instrumental in helping Belgian beers find a wide audience here in the States.

He was 65.

In my defense, I was just trying to find the Mackenzie Brothers 'Beer Hunter ' via a Google search. But if the cap fits.....
