friends forever

Dogfish Head's brewmaster Sam Calagione and I are practically best friends.

After watching Beer Wars, I sent him an email, because he said in the film that people could do that. I told him about my love of Bitches Brew and World Wide Stout and how much I appreciated his efforts to make cool beers despite the challenges in competing with the behemoths. He wrote back!:

Thanks for the kind words and support Colleen. And thanks for taking the time to see the movie. Keep drinking the good stuff. Cheers, Sam

Just wanted that here for posterity, and also to show that we're on a first name basis. Awesome.
