Wynkoop Brewing‘s Marty Jones has gleefully announced the winner of Beerdrinker of the Year for 2010 and his name is Bill Howell. Howell has been a lover of craft beer since 1984 and a homebrewer since 1989. A former officer of the US Navy, Howell has been spreading the gospel of beer through newspaper columns, his blog and teaching his class The Art & History of Brewing at the local college. The downside is that local for Bill is Sterling, Alaska, not Denver, Colorado – where he now has free beer for life at Wynkoop.
Fortunately for Bill, there’s no shortage of good beer in Alaska…
