It happened to me that I drank one beer after another

Michael Jackson 1989 (not the singer, the beer guy) documentary about beer; pivo, bier, ale, in heaven there is no bier so we drink it here, Germany, California.

Big Miachel Jackson fan. His books are one of the many reasons I got into beer and homebrewing.

Lots of people drink beer, but Michael Jackson took it seriously.

Michael Jackson died in 2007, so I hope that song is wrong, for his sake.

Thanks for posting. I was able to track down a torrent file of The Beer Hunter series (ripped from VHS!) some time back and found it to be thoroughly enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone who has more than a passing interest in good beer. The Michael Jackson obit thread is also worth a look.

Kept some good things alive and helped some new good things happen. One could do worse.
