Here are some of our friends who have "something" to do with beer...
amateurgolf.com - Our friend Pete is the founder and CEO of this golf site... "The Web's #1 Amateur Golf Tournament Database". If you have to ask the connection between beer and golf, you haven't played enough golf... or drank enough beer.
Barclays Pub in Oakland, CA - This is where it all started back in 1991 and Barclay's is still one of the best beer bars in the San Francisco Bay Area. If you go in, tell Gene Chris and Merideth said 'Hi'. Also, look for Chris' 100 beers plaque - second row, bottom.
beer-chef.com - Our friend Bruce Paton is the Executive Chef at the Cathedral Hotel in San Francisco and puts on these amazing "Dinner with the Brewmaster". Check out his website and get on his mailing list.

Brookston Beer Bulletin - A friend of Rowdy's, we finally met Jay Brooks at the 2007 Oregon Brewers Festival. His website has to be one of the most comprehensive beer sites around.
Burning Barrel Brewery - Tim Gorman, a homebrewer in New Brunswick (Canadian province, not American city), found our site and loved the videos. Anyone who loves our videos deserves a mention here.
floggingmolly.de - Our friend Ute runs the German Flogging Molly fan club website. The connection to beer? There is nothing better than downing a few Guinness and seeing a Flogging Molly show.
