Seems thay some wine connoisseurs are finally starting to realize this. Here in Kansas City, MO, we're fortunate that the local wine writer, Doug Frost, who holds both the Master Sommelier and Master of Wine titles, is also a beer lover and will occasionally write about beer. (not often enough for my taste, but I'll take what I can get!)
