I'm privileged to have been among the writers of @ReadOctober, even if it was just briefly, and to have written one of my favorite pieces to date for them. Wishing the best to the incredible @SarahIsChi & the rest of the amazing staff! oct.co/essays/mothers…

His first post was him pinching a can of West Side Oktoberfest like it was an artifact from a tiny lost civilization. trib.al/kEya5eL
"Best Of" lists are inherently subjective, so this time, @ReadOctober just leaned in. These are the beers (and ciders) that personally sparked a little joy in this bleak year. Check out my shoutouts to @GrimmAles @AllagashBrewing @EdenCiders @BRLObeer oct.co/essays/our-fav…

@tonitwopint @ReadOctober Your writing has been brilliant this year—I’m so thankful you started writing professionally. Yesterday’s piece was powerful and masterfully written. I look forward to reading a whole lot more from you next year ❤️
The final week of @ReadOctober is bringing on all the feels. Here, the dream team lifts the curtain a bit on the website's incredible journey. oct.co/essays/having-…
Shady labor practices and union-busting are all too common and too seldom discussed in the beer industry. Please read @jgfagerberg's excellent piece on why that needs to change. oct.co/essays/craft-b…
While you're at it, check out this piece @SarahIsChi and I wrote together about the ways in which the pandemic has altered craft beer for good. Special thanks to @HopewellBrewing @jesterkingbeer @AllagashBrewing @radiantbeerco for sharing their stories oct.co/essays/how-pan…
"Dismantling systemic, anti-Black racism will require a redistribution of power that white people in the beer industry have demonstrated that they are unwilling to undertake." Thrilled to run this thoughtful, important op-ed by @tonitwopint oct.co/essays/beer-ra…
Here it is, folks, my last article for @ReadOctober, which is made even more special by the fact that I wrote it alongside the supremely talented @DianaHubbell. Some great musings in here on the year that was and what it means for the future of beer. oct.co/essays/how-pan…
I had the pleasure of illustrating this one - and several other really fun pieces over the years! Will miss @ReadOctober and the lovely folks who made it great 💕
I'm privileged to have been among the writers of @ReadOctober, even if it was just briefly, and to have written one of my favorite pieces to date for them. Wishing the best to the incredible @SarahIsChi & the rest of the amazing staff! oct.co/essays/mothers…

Over the years I’ve worked at @ReadOctober, I’ve struggled to explain what it was—yes, it was about beer, but it was also about FARC insurgents, contemporary art, and juggalos. These features best encapsulate the site’s ethos and what made it so unique. oct.co/essays/october…
My byline appeared most frequently in @ReadOctober. I loved writing about this man who described collecting as a "monster that you create without really understanding the reason and then you must take care of that monster.” oct.co/essays/beer-ca…
Also for @ReadOctober I wrote about how this @smithsonian historian is remembering this year through the lens of beer… oct.co/essays/smithso…
Another favorite is this one, if only because it brought this beautiful illustration into the world oct.co/essays/concept…
I got to contribute a handful of pieces to @ReadOctober this year, my favorite of which was this one about how sobering up got me back into an old hobby oct.co/essays/beer-ma…
I had the opportunity to speak with @GarrettOliver of the Brooklyn Brewery and about The Micheal James Jackson initiative for @ReadOctober. oct.co/essays/garrett…
Behold, @ReadOctober's final beer review. And, boy, are we going out with a bang (this year's ONLY perfect score). oct.co/essays/russian…
Gah, sad news at CN today. @ReadOctober was a great read + place to contribute. @SarahIsChi offered excellent no nonsense guidance + regular opportunity 👏. Site was happy to do granular, interesting beer stories I'm not sure where else I could pitch: oct.co/essays/martin-… 🍻
This article profiling Pints and Panels did a lot to get people talking about #visualbeereducation — forever grateful to @ReadOctober and @DianaHubbell 🍻🍻🍻
I'm obsessed with the artwork of @PintsandPanels. If there's a better way to learn about beer than through adorable cartoons, I don't know what it is oct.co/essays/em-saut…
As one of the voices who have contributed to October (and actually currently writing a piece), I'm saddened to hear about this.
