Alcoholist Yet another cocktail blog.

Let’s try this again.

Travel for my day job and taking care of various USBG PA issues when I’m in town has meant that I’ve posted relatively little here. It wasn’t ever my intention to make blogging yet another unpaid part-time job, but when I was chatting last weekend with Thad at his lovely new Bar Agricole, he pointed out that all the work-induced travel and my interest in quality booze gives me a mildly unique perspective, different than all the various globe-trotting bartenders / brand reps (ahem, Alex, Dave, Misty, Tad, Jason, Danny, Rocky, usw). Those folks typically attend Events, and even if they’re in a bar on a normal night, the staff knows who they are and that they’re coming in advance, whereas I’m usually Just Another Customer.

So, Thad, you’re right: maybe I do have something of value to contribute, and I will strive to get something posted about San Jose, (my most recent visit to) SF, and Seattle before I get back on a plane again…
