    You've been commenting on these Sierra Nevada threads with some implied authority in what you are saying - are you from Sierra Nevada? Or did you just talk with someone?

    Cover is blown... I've worked there 23 years, I'm (the former :slight_frown:) Bill's counterpart in Chico. I'll be helping inform until we find a new @sierranevada???

    Brewer = Me
    Beer Geek = Bill

    I'm going to miss that guy, but friends for life. We have seen a lot.

    It’s all true guys. After nearly 10 years, I left Sierra Nevada. I’m a Midwestern guy at heart, so I’m going home.

    I start with Surly after the New Year. I respect the hell out of Surly and I’m stoked To get to work. Not 100% what to do with my screen name, as I probably won’t necessarily be representing Surly in the same way I did with Sierra. (Doing a similar job, though... new product development and brand work) I certainly don’t know the brewery (yet) as well as Sierra Nevada.

    @tfs8271 is a wealth of knowledge and will serve this community well. Terence is family to me, and taught me most of what I know (in beer and in life) he should come out of the BA closet and represent with a Sierra screen name!!

    Thank you all for the kind words, I was a BA before I worked for Sierra Nevada and will be long into the future. Respect!

    Bill

    I find this news Abrasive, and it makes me Furious. I want to hear what Todd has to say. OK, I quit the lame connections. You're off to the Darkness, and I say God Bless, and stay warm.

    I don't know man, as some people have already points out @SurlyBill is a pretty game screen name! Best of luck in the future!

    Ha ha highly possible. Although my Fresh Hop Pack wasn't too bad, surprisingly.

    True story... Ken read a review that Bill wrote on Northern Hemisphere Harvest and asked that we contact him to see if wanted to write copy for Sierra... The rest is history.

    Surly is one lucky brewery to have him!

    For all you have done for us and this site, pretty sure they can change your username since that seems to be a supported feature here. To echo everyone else, thanks for all your support here and good luck with your next chapter at Surly

    If you decide to go with the SurlyBill name you better research whether Duff Brewing has a trademark here. :wink:
