Troy Burtch
Toronto, Ontario, Canada
I started this blog in 2007 for my own interests, keeping a running log of different pubs I visited and it turned into something much more. Since that time I left my cushy job with the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services to take a position with TAPS The Beer Magazine as the Director of Sales and Marketing. And it's been great so far! Getting up every morning to work in this industry - just great.
I am also the co-founder of Toronto Beer Week (TBW) and I am part of the organizing team for the Canadian Brewing Awards (CBAs).
I've provided written material for Canadian Living, BOOM Magazines, TAPS and I've hosted video podcasts for TAPS as well, one of which won a Telly Award. I've also worked with breweries and restaurants hosting beer dinners and have organized a number of successful pub crawls.
