Today is John Mallett’s 47th birthday, John is the production manager at Bell’s Brewery in Kalamazoo, Michigan, a post he’s held since 2001. John has a great sense of humor and I recall a particularly side-splitting kvetching evening-long conversation with him and Fal Allen at CBC in San Diego a number of years ago (not the most recent one). John me in wishing John a very happy birthday.

Could you see wine people behaving in such a silly manner as this? I love the lack of presumption on the faces of beer people. Great pic!
