We are organizing a toast for this evening at 7:00 pm for beer writer Bill Brand who was hit by a Muni train last night after leaving Sean Paxton’s beer dinner at the 21st Amendment.

Man, I hope he comes out of it alright. I’ve never met him, but I’ve become a fan of his site and writing for sure. I’ll be here at 7pm PT to show support.

I’ll hopefully be at Schooners by then for the toast. Sad indeed...

Sorry to hear about his accident. Crazy Dave introduced me to him a couple years ago at the GABF. Seemed like a great guy.
