RIP Gerhard Schoolman

I have just heard that Gerhard passed away today. I know he was known to many of you personally and many more by name and reputation. It goes without saying that his knoweldge and patience, especially with non-Germans speakers, often went way beyond expectations. As co-owner of Cafe Abseits he introduced many people to the joy of countryside Franconian brewing and opened his own mind to craft beer very early on. 

His generosity and efforts driving people around, answering technical questions and organizing tastings will I'm sure be remembered by all who benefitted from them.

I shall raise a glass this evening.
