All About Beer

[1] It was located in Durham, NC, USA and was published six times per year,[2] plus one special annual issue.

[5] In 1982, ownership of All About Beer passed to McMullen Publishing of Anaheim, CA, though Bosak and fellow founders Kenneth Yee and Terry Bratcher remained involved.

[9] Shortly thereafter, he began to bounce employee paychecks and was delinquent on paying vendors, contributors, and consultants.

Daniel Hartis was installed as editor and worked in the position until October 2018, when Rice laid off any remaining staff.

The bankruptcy filings show that Christopher Byron Rice still owed the previous owners of Draft a substantial amount of money from the purchase.

In 2022, it was announced that John Holl and Andy Crouch have acquired the All About Beer brand, digital assets, and editorial archive.

[15] Fred Eckhardt first wrote for the magazine in 1986, and began his regular column, “The Beer Enthusiast,” the following year.

Regular contributors included Jeff Alworth, John Holl, Tom Acitelli, Garrett Oliver, Brian Yaeger, Joe Stange, Evan Rail, Heather Vandenengel, Lew Bryson, Jeff Evans, Charlie Papazian, Adrian Tierney-Jones, Dan Rabin, Rick Lyke and Roger Protz.

That relationship was ended while Rice was publisher of All About Beer, but the publication is once again the event's media sponsor with Holl and Crouch in place.
