Stephen Beaumont - Remembering Michael Jackson
Frequently cited as one of the world’s leading writers on beer, Stephen Beaumont has been documenting the world of beer, spirits, food and travel for over fifteen years. Since his start penning the “Brew” column for Canada’s largest circulation newspaper, The Toronto Star, Stephen has championed the cause of good beer in publications ranging from The International Herald Tribune to Wine Enthusiast to Esquire, and authored five books, including the critically applauded “Premium Beer Drinker’s Guide” (a “thorough, smart and accurate” read, says Saveur magazine), and “The Great Canadian Beer Guide, 2nd Edition.”
A tireless advocate of all things good and gastronomic, Stephen is perhaps best known for his work involving the partnership of beer and food, a passion that led directly to his involvement in the ownership and operation of beerbistro, one of North America’s premier locations for creative beer cuisine, located in downtown Toronto. His work in the restaurant world has not slowed down his writing one iota, however, and Stephen still contributes regularly to a host of publications including Hemispheres , Flavor & The Menu and The Globe and Mail, and maintains regular columns in Paste, The Malt Advocate, The Celebrator, Ale Street News, Flavours, City Bites and the hospitality industry journal, Cheers. Stephen is also a member of the tasting panel for All About Beer Magazine and the Council of Advisors for The Gerson Lehrman Group, as well as a blogger for Adams Beverage Media, That’s the SPIRIT, and his site World of Beer.
