\"TheI attended perhaps the best beer festival that I\u2019ve ever gone to last weekend\u2026And I’ve been to several hundred over the years. The Festival<\/a>, put on by an importer that we work closely with, Shelton Brothers, had an amazing line up<\/a> of beers. There wasn\u2019t one bad one in the lot and I tried as many as I could. It was more productive than most as I got to catch up with many brewers we\u2019ve worked with over the years as well as hang out with quite a few new ones to discuss special projects for 2015. We\u2019re going to ramp up our game in The Rare Beer Club and feature even more exclusives that we ran this year (7 all tolled). Stay tuned for further updates on the following breweries: Mystic, Oxbow, Rappi bier factory, Rooie Dop, The Rare Barrel, Siren, Moor, and Side Project, among many, many others!<\/p>\n

I only snapped one shot of the current 27 year old co-head brewer at De Molen, John Brus. After hearing a bit about his life and work, I asked him, \u201cYou know you\u2019re living the dream, right?\u201d. He knew.<\/p>\n

Prost!
