LouieMacGoo--Brewer Of The Month October 2015

Post by The_Professor »

CONGRATULATIONS TO LouieMacGoo OCTOBER 2015 BREWER OF THE MONTH!

Of course a well deserved win for starting and running BeerBorg,com

I'll go ahead and add some "interview" questions for our Brewer Of The Month:
1) When did you start brewing and how did you become interested?
2) Who would you most like to share a beer with?
3) What is your favorite beer?
4) Do you have a beer recipe you'd like to share?

Everyone in that list is deserving. But I voted for Louie with one of my initial pics and my runoff vote too because he provides this place for us.
