LONG before Brew Masters, I wrote a TV show pilot simply called Beer America . At the time I worked for a company in Washington DC called O’Keefe Communications, I convinced them that this guy named Sam Calagione would be a great host for my little beer show and asked for their help to shoot a screen test. They agreed and we shot a quick segment at the Brickskeller. That was in 2003 – here is what Beer America looked like 7 years ago – enjoy!

This is great…what a blast from the past! Sam looks younger but his camera presence is still great. Very cool to see.

Sam has such a charismatic personality. You could see a star in the making then. Well done Paul.
