Thirsty yet?

Because everything in life is better with a good friend and a good drink, I’m constantly on the hunt for the next great libation and writing about the adventure.

This website is a portfolio for my articles, books, and blog, which focus on drinking, eating, traveling and otherwise living the tippling life.
