I’m doing my best not to get sucked back into the Beer Wars<\/em> discussion. But I do want to point you to Harry Schuhmacher’s excellent “alternative view.”<\/a> In it he mentions the late Henry King.<\/p>\n

I first met King at Oldenburg Beer Camp in 1996 and was fascinated when he talked about “institutional memory.” Eight years later Jim Parker, then editor of New Brewer<\/em> magazine, asked me to write a profile of King because — being perfectly honest — he was dying. A great assignment and a terrible one. King died in April of 2005.<\/p>\n

Anyway, today I added “Henry King: Another king of beers”<\/a> to the library. And I’m thinking again about the importance of institutional memory.<\/p>\n

But not writing about Beer Wars<\/em>, though I will suggest you read what Stephen Beaumont has to write<\/a> about the idea “we’re all in this together.” <\/p>\n
