Beer Reborn for: Distinction Magazine

Beer, beer, beer and more beer!

Several days after wrapping up this recent shoot for Distinction Magazine I kept thinking that I could smell the distinct aroma of hops brewing. A sweet yet bitter flavoring of the air seemed to be embedded in my senses.

I have to admit, I'm not really much of a beer guy, I might have a beer or two once or twice a year and it's always a challenge to finish just one measly pint. Needless to say, during this assignment, I really wished that I did embellish in the festivities of craft brews. Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise, at least all my pictures remained in focus. This may not have been the case if I were a raging drink-a-holic. HA!

All taste buds aside, I truly enjoyed learning about the process and passion of craft brewing from a few of Hampton Roads local brewers. Stories such as Kevin O'Connor's of O'Connor Brewing are inspiring and well worth a read - you can pick up a copy of the Spring 2013 issue of Distinction at Barnes & Nobles. 

Cheers!

Thanks Southern Skies. I don't have any behind-the-scenes shots. Odd, I've never done one. Definitely something to think about the next go around. Is there anything specific about the BTS that interest you? Cheers!
