About Me

BryanB
Beer is my hobby and I'm a professional writer, but I also have a full-time job writing about other stuff and a young family, so I don't have nearly as much time for beer-blogging as I'd like.

A life member of CAMRA, I love both real ale and fine craft beer - and yes, those two definitions have a large overlap. Although I'm London-based, I spent a couple of years living in Northern Germany, so you'll find German beer covered here alongside the real ales. And to be honest, alongside just about anything else that's good in the way of beer.
