Beer Birthday: Harry Schuhmacher

January 7, 2023 By Jay Brooks

bbd
Today is Harry Schuhmacher’s 54th birthday. Harry covers the business side of beer news at his wonderful Beer Business Daily. Our paths cross only occasionally, but I had the pleasure of getting to know Harry better during a press junket to Bavaria several years ago, and he’s one of the warmest, thoughtful and funniest people I’ve met. And he’s a beertard, too. You can also read his occasional personal ramblings at Thanks For Drinking Beer, essays from which is also available as a book, too. Join me in wishing Harry a very happy birthday.

    Happy Birthday to Harry! I had the pleasure of hanging out with Harry at the Boston Craft Brewers Conference — he is indeed super-funny and cheerful. And SMRT.

    I just found this looking for Harry’s blog and nearly spit my drink out on my monitor over beertard. All these years later and it never gets old. Poor Harry will never escape it or live it down.

    The Bavaria gang rides again–or it should. Ah, fond memories of nearly getting chucked out of Schlenkerla tavern with the birthday boy and P. Reid.
