Happy Birthday Mr. Pinhey

Atlantic Canada's beer, spirits and wine writer, Craig Pinhey, is celebrating a birthday today, and he's celebrating in style as he is away working in France at the moment.

There are a number of place to read Pinhey's work as he writes for TAPS, The Coast (a Halifax weekly), New Brunswick's Telegraph Journal, Wine Access Magazine and many more publications. Pinhey also has a popular blog, Frog's Pad, and he is also involved with the Friday CBC Radio program the Shift as the Wine Guy. He is a certified beer and wine judge, a sommelier, a wine educator and is definitely one of the most passionate people in Canada when it comes to the drinks industry.

With TAPS, Pinhey covers all the east coast beer news and is my partner for the Tasting Panel. Here's wishing him a Happy Birthday!
