B.C. Beer Blog

Enjoying a New Belgium Fat Tire while watching the Seattle Mariners play the Detroit Tigers

I am a Vancouver-based writer with an interest in beer, coffee, culture, current affairs, gastronomy, history, politics, and travel. In addition to blogging, I currently write for Northwest Brewing News, CAMRA BC’s What’s Brewing, and Urban Diner. I have also begun writing a book on coffee and travel called Adventures in Your Cup.

Previously, I worked in the cruise industry for a passenger agent, port agent, and logistics company serving the cruise lines with ships going to Alaska. Prior to that, I was a multimedia writer, editor, entrepreneur, and producer for 10 years in Hong Kong and San Francisco, publishing for CD-ROM and the Web.

I am currently the President of the Vancouver chapter of the Campaign for Real Ale, an independent consumer organization dedicated to pubs, drinkers’ rights, and supporting the brewing of traditional styles of beer in the traditional manner, using traditional ingredients. If you want to keep abreast of beer-related news in Vancouver, be sure to sign up to my weekly e-mail list.

I am also available for beer consulting and the hosting of beer dinners, seminars, and tastings. To contact me, send an e-mail to bodger[at]istar[dot]ca.
