Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Today is fellow beer writer Don Russell’s 54th birthday. Don writes a beer column for the Philadelphia Daily News under the nom de plume Joe Sixpack. He also writes a blog online, Beer Radar, and is one of the organizers of Philly Beer Week. Don is a fellow Pennsylvanian, a crack card player, and one of favorite people to share a beer with. Join me in wishing Don a very happy birthday.
