I was aware of Dave’s cancer diagnosis from his Hardknott Dave’s blog, although the last post he made there was around 18 month’s ago. It did seem like he’d had a terrible run of bad luck, that started with having to close the brewery that he’d put a huge amount of effort, and his whole life into.<br /><br />I remember Peter, the occasion you introduced me to Dave and his partner Ann. It was August 2016, and we were on the Tattershall Castle, just off the Victoria Embankment in London. We had gathered for the British Guild of Beer Writer’s pre-GBBF party and having been an avid reader of Hardknott Dave’s blog, I was slightly in awe of meeting him. I needn’t have worried of course, as he was as down to earth a person, as you could wish to meet, and it was a privilege to have enjoyed a few beers with him. <br /><br />Not much more I can add, apart from the obvious condolences to Dave’s family and friends, plus the inherent truth that it’s always the good that die young. <br />Paul Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09678639237696546268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629758183547510158.post-82739932687608377402022-03-04T08:27:07.282+00:002022-03-04T08:27:07.282+00:00Lovely write up.

Definitely a force of nature. Always ready with an opinion.

It was something and nothing about the contemporary beer scene. Anyway after a bit of to & fro we parted, returning to our respective bars. Then. every so often Dave would appear at the bar I was working on with a "and another thing...".
