About Beerproof

I’m an EMT living in New Jersey, pretty close to Philadelphia (although not close enough!). I was born in New York City, but I love Philly, including all of its sports teams (except the 76ers, no one likes them), especially the Phillies. In terms of beer, I love the history of beer, but mostly, I love drinking it. I’ve recently gotten into brewing beer as well, under the name Angelicus Brewing. So far, I’ve brewed a Raspberry Wheat, Blueberry Wheat and a Nut Brown Ale. Other than my own creations, my favorite beer styles are stouts, IPAs (especially Imperial IPAs) and any beer with chilis in it, although I’ll try anything. I love to talk about beer and introduce macros drinkers into the craft beer cult…I mean, world. I’m a big dork, but I make up for that by having a really cute cat (see below). He dresses up in costumes, which usually make their way onto my beer labels.

Other than beer, I like working out, music, watching documentaries and playing and watching sports. If I’m not drinking beer, you can usually find me with a vanilla vodka and cranberry or some sort of Irish whiskey/scotch/bourbon, preferably neat. I also have a wonderful girlfriend named Katie. She’s not a beer drinker (she pretty much only enjoys fruity, mixed drinks), but she does humor me every now and then. You can usually find us at The Globe in Red Bank on Saturday nights. She has a beautiful four year old daughter that constantly keeps me on my toes.
