What is the Beer Me cast?

The Beer Me cast is a live streamed show and blog about the variety, brilliance, and growing culture of craft beer from the perspective of craft beer enthusiast from humble Sacramento, CA. Sac’s craft beer scene is exploding and has galvanized our interest in craft beer. While Sacramento is our home and will be a strong focus for us, it will be far from the only one. From Northern California to the Southern California scene, and all the way across the states to the east coast, we plan on discussing and drinking the finest brews we can get our hands on in an approachable and affable way.

The Members

Jaxon Ramsel

The idea-man behind all that is BMC. He works as a assistant brewer and beer tender in a Sacramento Craft brewery, favorite breweries always in constant change with the likes of Deschutes, Sierra Nevada, Alvarado Street and Dogfish Head always at the forefront of his mind. As the lynchpin of this cast of beer lovers,  he tries to corral Mark’s overuse of puns and Mike’s borderline psychosis into a fun, coherent stream. Good luck, man.

Mark Zanfardino

The resident expert of the cast. He experiments with home brewing, maintains a frightening ability to recite beers that he tasted off the top of his head like he’s Dustin Hoffman in RAIN MAN. His favorite brewery is Sierra Nevada Brewing which does not mean he wont drink a tasty Ranch Water if the conditions are right. He is also the first father in the cast.

Mike Jones

While Mike has stepped back a bit from regular appearances he still makes up a third of the main cast. His favorite brewery one day may be Allagash Brewing and the next could be different. Mike prefers to work behind the scenes and bring his interest of the ancillary aspects of craft beer culture to the fray when he can. He’s also the tallest of the bunch.
