Writer Ian Phillips - Ian is a common
man spreading the gospel of quality craft beer. A self-proclaimed “Craft Beer Ambassador” if
you will. Ian has his professional background in the television/entertainment industry where he worked
many gigs ranging from being a NBC Page, to building sets, to re-wiring the Sesame Street studio for High-Definition production.
(He has been inside Oscar’s trashcan!) After getting laid-off from a full-time job with NBC at the
beginning of the recession, he took that old cliché advice of “Follow your passion” and jumped into the
craft beer industry. Ian has worked for a brewery in Manhattan, coordinated beer education programs, bartended
in beer bars, and hosted Beer/cheese pairings on sailboats. He’s met amazing people, learned an incredible
amount, and loved every minute of it. Although no longer living in New York City, Ian travels around the
country visiting breweries, talking with brewers, and sampling craft beers in his ongoing quest to enjoy life.
