Famed beer author Michael Jackson (no no no, the other one) has died. The good news is that this officially means the top position for the best job on earth, which is traveling around drinking beer, is now available. Nevertheless, we at D.C., along with beer aficionados everywhere, extend our condolences to the family and friends of this tireless crusader for good beer.
So tip back a pint of something special tonight, my friends, because Mr. Jackson just may be the reason that “something special” is available at your local supplier.
I’ll pour out a little Delerium Tremens for The Beer Hunter tonight. Bottoms up, big man, and thanks.
Mr. Jackson will be getting the first pour from me tonight. Hell, why wait… it’s 5 p.m. somewhere. Let’s drink.
