Today is Tomme Arthur’s 38th birthday. Tomme is Director of Brewery Operations for Port Brewing and the Lost Abbey. One of the rising stars of the San Diego brewing scene, Tomme is justly famous for his terrific beers, like his Cuvee de Tomme. Plus, he introduced washoes to the brewing community. Join me in wishing Tomme a very happy birthday.

Happy bday Tomme!!! Ironically Harry is brewing a different version of your Double Date today but using raisins. He has done the date version you helped him with but wanted to try a different twist this time. We’ll toast to you when it’s done.
