Today is the 39th birthday of Bryan Roth. Bryan’s day job is with Duke Health Marketing & Communications, but his more important role for our purposes was being the former Executive Director of the North American Guild of Beer Writers. He’s also a freelance beer writer who works closely with Good Beer Hunting and also has his own blog, This is Why I’m Drunk. Tapping Bryan to help us with the NAGBW was a great decision as he’s made us far more organized and focused as we try to grow the guild. Plus, he’s a great advocate for good beer. Join me in wishing Bryan a very happy birthday.
