“ I’m more of a German-school brewer, so I think in terms of original gravity, and alcohol to me – I don’t even like talking about alcohol. It’s like asking a butcher to measure his steaks or hamburger in terms of percent fat. Alcohol to me isn’t important. When I brew these beers it’s about flavor.”
Dan Carey (May 14, 1960)
“ ‘Une bière brassée avec savoir se déguste avec sagesse.’ Translated as ‘Beer brewed carefully, to be consumed with care.’”
Slogan of the Brasseries Portes Ouvertes, held in Belgium the last Sunday of April
“”In the burned-
out highway
ditch the throw-away beer
bottle lands
standing upunbroken,
like a cat
thrown offof a roof
to kill it,
landing hardand dazzled
in the sun
right side up;sort of a
miracle.
Ted Kooser (Apr. 25, 1939- )

J. P. Donleavy (Apr. 23, 1926- )
“ Experiences like the GABF highlight that craft beer has a community unlike any other. We are a small and tight-knit group, but we span the globe and welcome newcomers who share our passion and values.”

“ There are a lot of similarities [between music and beer]. That combination of the creative, and in music it’s the mathematical. Brewing is kind of scientific. So the combination of creative and scientific or mathematical side. The main thing for me is I like to create things that make people happy. With music and beer, it was the same thing, make people happy.”
Steve Wagner (Apr. 5, 1958- )
“ To clink glasses of a freshly made, seasonal beer, preferably in a pub or garden, with friends and perhaps new acquaintances, is a ritual that makes every participant feel good. We may not rationalize this at the time, but it gives us a sense of place in our common community and our time in the tides of life on earth. This is a way to value beer and treat it with respect.”
Michael Jackson (Mar. 27, 1942-2007)
