Greg was a mentor and brewing hero for me. We met on a hotel balcony at the GABF in 1989 over a keg of Old Fog Horn. Boy we drank a lot that night. He encouraged me to take the leap into the pro game and was always there when I called. His Brewing Lager Beers was the easily the most influential book in my development as a brewer. I actually had one of those weird premonitions on Sunday about him. May he rest in peace and may his family be comforted.
