Brooks On Beer

Since April of 2009, I’ve been writing a syndicated biweekly column, Brooks On Beer, for the Bay Area News Group, a subsidiary of the MediaNews Group. The MediaNews Group owns and operates over 50 newspapers in 11 states. The Bay Area News Group consists of 14 newspapers throughout the greater San Francisco Bay Area. My column usually runs in at least six of those, including the Oakland Tribune, the San Jose Mercury News and the Contra Costa Times.
