Today is Garrett Oliver’s 49th birthday. Garrett is the head brewer at Brooklyn Brewery and has done more for the craft beer industry to promote pairing food and beer than just about any other person alive. If you haven’t picked up a copy of his book, The Brewmaster’s Table, you should do so as soon as possible. He’s also the best-dressed brewer in the world and a great person. Join me in wishing Garrett a very happy birthday.

I just drank the collaboration between Garrett Oliver & Hans-Peter Drexler: fantastic beer. I really hope to meet Oliver someday. Happy Birthday!
Wow! July is an awesome birth month for brewers, no? Happy Birthday to all of us.
