This past weekend, I went with a couple of friends to Beer Advocate’s Extreme Beer Fest. We attended two sessions - the photos in this post are from the first session. By the time Jess took this photo of us with Jim Koch (center), the founder of the Boston Beer Company (Sam Adams), we’d all had quite a bit to drink. It appeared that Jim had more than we had - at the very least, he was definitely further gone than we were. Who cares - it’s Jim fuckin’ Koch!
Fellow Beer Advocates mmcgrath and PEBKAC.
