Today is Fred Bueltmann’s 57th birthday. Fred was a partner in New Holland Brewing, and was their VP of brand and lifestyle before announcing his departure a few years back. He’s also a self-styled Beervangelist and published the “Beervangelist’s Guide to the Galaxy,” which was successfully funded on Kickstarter. These days he’s spending his time with the horses at Red Horse Center and playing Sousaphone with the Strapping Owls. I’ve met Fred several times over the years but got to know him a lot better at GABF a several years ago, when it seemed like we judged together on every other session, and had a marvelous time in between rounds. Join me in wishing Fred a very happy birthday.
