Brian discovered craft beer back home in Portland, OR when it was still called microbrew.  His passion for beer has led him on a mission to try as many as possible, and he’s doing a pretty good job of it.  Brian is an equal-opportunity beer drinker and can appreciate a well-made beer of most any style.  In addition to drinking beer Brian is also a homebrewer and has brewed a variety of styles and won several awards in homebrew competitions.

Brian also enjoys a fine cigar and is one of the founding contributors to StogieReview.com, he has also shared his cigar knowledge on Beer Guys Radio with his quick “Cigar in 60” reviews.   Depending on what day of the week you catch him it might be a tough call to decide which he enjoys more.

Tim was first introduced to craft beer by co-workers from the UK who were happy to find Samuel Adams among the relative craft beer desert of Mississippi in the early 1990s.   After relocating to Atlanta in 2000 he enjoyed the variety of beers available from local brewers (a measly 6 at that time) as well as the options available from other breweries across the country.

On many weekends Tim can be found at his home in Woodstock spending time with friends homebrewing and sharing great beers, or at a local brewery or beer festival.

Favorite Styles: Pilsner and other light lagers, Saison, Stouts!

Smalls was introduced to craft beer via the Brewniversity program at Taco Mac and was happy to find there is life outside of PBR. She discovered her love for stouts with New Holland’s Dragon’s Milk and the rest is history.

Through her travels as a Field Molecular Applications Scientist, Smalls has been able to sample craft beer all over the country and often brings it back for fellow craft beer lovers. Smalls is a Cicerone Certified Beer Server and is pursuing her Certified Cicerone Level 2 certification.

In her spare time, Becky can be found volunteering at local beer festivals, catching live shows, or sharing beers with friends and family.
