He was the academic whose work formed the basis of the beers that sam calgione at dogfishhead released as the ancient ale series.

His book ANCIENT BREWS, is a really good read and his description by NPR as "the Indiana Jones of ancient ales and extreme beverages" could not be more fitting. Despite living in the same city as the him, I never got to meet him but have met several who knew him well and they all spoke glowingly of him.

I have always wanted to make a Jiahu clone but something always got in the way. I hope I can find sometime soon.

He was really a beer geek's beer geek.
