Beer Birthday: Sean Paxton

October 20, 2022 By Jay Brooks

Today is the 50th birthday — The Big 5-O — of Sean Paxton, a.k.a. The Homebrew Chef. Sean is a mad alchemist in the kitchen and puts on some wonderful food and beer spectacles. Plus he’s a terrific homebrewer, an even better human being and a great friend. He’s spent the last year redoing his website with great new recipes and an amazing interface that allows you to search, scale the recipes, convert measurements and much more. For just $5 per month, you’ll get a steady stream of newly created and tested recipes, along with videos and articles to teach you how to cook like Sean and answer your questions. Check it out. Join me in wishing Sean a very happy birthday.

    Happy Birthday Sean! The perfect day for you to crack open a nice aged bottle of hmm.. Pannepot? Westvleteren? Make it count.
    Cheers!

    Happy Birthday! Sean

    May I suggest a chocolate cake made with Ommegang Chocolate Indulgence Stout, Three Philosophers ice cream on the side, and any beer you’d like.

    Some of the best food I’ve ever had, ever, was at a Sean Paxton dinner. Happy Birthday Sean!
