Greg Noonan, VT craft beer pioneer passes away
Greg Noonan, founder/owner of the Vermont Pub and Brewery in Burlington, Vermont passed away on Sunday. News reports from media sources and various blog sites indicate that he passed away in his sleep. I never met Greg personally, but I was certainly aware of him and his influence on the craft beer community. Vermont Pub and Brewery has been a foundation business for downtown Burlington for 20 years. Greg also was the author of many popular brewing books and was a contributor to a nearly endless number of articles on craft beer brewing. My early days as a homebrew maker were influenced by some of Greg’s beer recipes; conveniently published and translated into extract, partial and all-grain varieties so that you could benefit from his experience no matter what your experience level as a brewer.
I join the rest of the craft brewer community in mourning his loss and my condolences go out to his family, friends and employees.
