I caught wind of it on Facebook, late Monday night, but I wanted to have some more concrete news before I posted the news. I never met the man but I've listened to his podcasts, viewed his site, read his reviews, and emailed him a few times. He is a true inspiration for me to learn more about beer. I will truly miss him. He worked very hard to promote craft brew in the province of British Columbia and beyond. I'll post more links to vids and the like involving him and his works. RIP Colin.
