Michael Jackson, beer and scotch expert, dead

[Bevo Incognito]

Wow. Where have I been?

I'm not sure whether or not any of you have Michael Jackson's classic books on beer and/or scotch, but I just learned that he died almost a year ago.

I had no idea. I wish I could find that "Lads of the Village" photo that he had in his New World Guide to Beer. It is my favorite picture of all time.

Anyway, if you have a chance, raise your glass today to the memory of Michael Jackson.

there was, in fact, a thread about this on this very forum when he died.

I'm reminded of the Patsy Cline conversation in the movie UTurn.

There's a copy of his compendium over the bar at the Gingerman in Dallas. We talked about this thread when we were there last night.

I have his book, signed by the other Michael Jackson.
