Graham Wheeler is a name familiar to most of us and to whom we owe a great debt of gratitude. Because he gave us so much information and enabled us to embark on our brewing hobby confident that we can brew successfully.
Graham died on this day in 2017 and in memory of him I have posted this photo of him taken in the White Hart Canterbury by Trefoyl of this forum.

Lest we forget
"You're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on." Dean Martin
1. Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip
It's better to lose time with friends than to lose friends with time (Portuguese proverb)
Be who you are
Because those that mind don't matter
And those that matter don't mind

I’ll raise a glass of Homebrew to him. He didn’t like having his picture taken so I had to surprise him 
Sommeliers recommend that you swirl a glass of wine and inhale its bouquet before throwing it in the face of your enemy.

Re: Lest we forget
Most of my British ales are based on Graham's recipes. I can't think of anyone else who contributed as much as Graham to brewing a decent pint, in my time as a home brewer. Invaluable.

I will raise a glass to Graham. He got me started.
Re: Lest we forget
Long before the internet was a thing, I found Graham's book in the local library. It was an inspiration.
