Georgeapalooza - Happy Birthday Mr. Eagleson

For the past seven years George Eagleson throws a party at Toronto's Cloak and Dagger pub to celebrate his birthday. The longtime head brewer at F&M calls the party Georgeapalooza and it brings together friends, brewers and brewery representatives from all over the province for a day of beer, food, and good company...and to help celebrate his birthday in style, which happened to be back on Jan. 21st.

Eagleson is crazy, there's not doubt about it. Crazy about the entire beer industry. His passion is unparalleled and everyone that knows him feels it when he opens his mouth. He lives and breaths beer and an afternoon of drinking with him is always memorable.

He also dabbles in recycled art with his terrific little company called CraftBrewers Recycled Art Project (CRAP). Head over to their website to see some of the cool items he has for sale.

Happy birthday George!
