Guest Critics: Matt and Jason
Matt: Matt is a commercial property insurance adjuster. His hobbies include spinning Reggae music (he has 8,000 vinyl records and two turntables) and cooking Carribean, Spanish and Italian foods. Matt lived in St. Thomas for a spell, but now resides in Hartford, Connecticut with his wife.
Jason: Jason is a former brewmaster who has worked for Bridgeport Brewery, Shaft Brewery, River City Brewing, Bayou Brewing... (the list goes on and on). In between brewing jobs, Jason worked as a roofer. Currently, Jason is a window installer and lives in Vancouver, Canada with his wife and two daughters.
Dinner: This dinner took place at Dave and Jenny's house, where a mix of old-time friends -- former mods, goths and thugs -- reunited and reminisced about the raucous days of Portland. Now that everyone's hair has been cut and responsibilities have shifted to raising children and paying mortgage, it was nice to see the former tribe together again for one final attempt at high-spirited disorder.
