Today is the 30th birthday of Peter Hoey, who until recently was the brewmaster at Sacramento Brewing. Peter’s a great brewer and has become a good friend over the last few years. He first brewed for Sacramento Brewing ten years ago, but left to brew at Sierra Nevada and then Bison Brewing, before returning to Sacramento a few years ago. He and partner Rick Sellers are just in the process of launching a new brewery, Odonata Beer Co. and their first beer should be coming pretty soon, possibly by mid-December or January. They also have an Odonata blog. Join me in wishing Peter a very happy birthday.
