Writer Wednesdays: Jay Brooks, Beer Writer

My first "big" craft beer article was published in April's issue #63 for BeerAdvocate about Savannah as a beercation destination, so lately I have been scouring the Internet for more craft beer writing gigs and gurus to learn from. Jay Brooks falls into that category with his contributions for the Bay Area News Group with articles like: Brooks on Beer: Chocolate and Beer (which is delicious if you haven't tried it, by the way).
Brooks is great at writing timely articles such as this that came out right before Valentine's Day, or his article about "Session Beers" that came out before April 7th's "Session Beer Day." I really enjoy his matter-of-fact articles tied to beer news and, of course, his obvious love of good beer like me.
What beer writers do you admire? Please recommend books, blogs, and columnists!
