Gonzo vs. Gonzo

If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
I wrote another blog entry for the increasingly popular Denver advertising/marketing/pr/design blog The Denver Egotist about Gonzo Imperial Porter and the new Hunter S. Thompson documentary.
I saw the documentary last night, and aside from a few bad bluescreening moments, […]

Yes, I can pair beer and turkey sandwiches

If you know me, you know I am a turkey sandwich fanatic. So much so that I even wrote a blog entry for the Denver Egotist about pairing beer and turkey sandwiches. Mmmm, turkey sandwiches.
Take a read and let me know what you think.

Savor, por favor?*

Savor - An American Craft Beer & Food Experience from Flying Dog Brewery on Vimeo.
When I was on the East Coast, I worked at Savor, a beer festival that was all about pairing American Craft Beer and gourmet food. I poured a bunch of beer for happy folks, gave away a few free tickets outside, […]

I’m edumucating people on Colorado beer over at the Denver Egotist

I’m learning people real good on local Colorado beer for a great local blog called The Denver Egotist. This week’s column is about Avery’s Karma, one of their Summer seasonals. I’m sharing blogging responsibilities with someone over at New Belgium, too. We’ll be trading off all Summer, and I’ll be writing about various Colorado breweries […]

En Garde (or Leggo my Eggo?)

Flying Dog Brewery released a new Spring seasonal beer this year - it’s a Biere de Garde (a traditional French farmhouse style) and we’re calling it Garde Dog. I shot some video on Friday featuring Executive Brewer Matt Brophy and PR & Event Coordinator Steph Kerchner. Take a look at the HD version.

As for the […]

The Denver Egotist boosts my ego a little

The Denver Egotist wrote about Flying Dog’s packaging redesign, something I worked on. I got a nice little name drop. Just something to boost my ego a little bit. Well, it’s nice to get some recognition.

Savor

I wrote a blog entry over at beerdinners.com about Savor, a craft beer and food “experience”. It’s a pretty cool even, happening in Washington D.C. in May. I’m attending with a few other members of our brewery and will be taking photos, shooting HD video, twittering and all of that. Liveblogging, if you will. It […]

Guinness falls 725,000 signatures short

Guinness launched a funny ad campaign recently about trying to make St. Patrick’s Day an “official” US Holiday. They also have put up website about it at proposition317.com. The aim of the site was to get 1 million digital signatures from people supporting their proposition by midnight last night. Guinness only ended up with about […]

My first HD video

I recently got a Canon HV20 HD Camcorder. After lots of fidgeting the last 2 evenings, I sort of got some video that was decent. See for yourself. It’s a little jumpy, a byproduct of my shooting at 24 frames per second. Or maybe I encoded it all fucked up. You have to start somewhere.
