Maureen Ogle, author of Ambitious Brew, sent me the following update on New Albion Brewery founder Jack McAuliffe, which she received from Jack’s sister Cathy earlier today:
Jack is still in the trauma ICU. He’s much more alert, so he can communicate by nodding or shaking his head. He’s still on the ventilator, so he can’t talk…warning to all of you smokers! Smokers have to spend more time on a ventilator in a situation like this than non-smokers!!!
