Stonch bids Adieu.

Tipped hat and raised glass to Jeff Bell, who on Sunday concluded three years of provoking thought at Stonch's Beer Blog. He is a writer of strong opinions — clever, incisive and concise — and put his money where his mouth was when he took over as landlord of the Gunmakers. I'm going to miss his blog.

Incidentally, Jeff and his well-run pub figure into a piece I've written for an upcoming issue of DRAFT. Here's the man himself, explaining to an ignorant American (i.e., me) how things work in the cellar. Stay tuned.
