ABOUT THE NORTH CAROLINA DELEGATES
North Carolina
Greg Barbera lives the rock 'n' roll lifestyle of a stay at home dad who also plays in a punk band and drinks a lot of beer...
...while self-confessed beer snob Matt Lyman would rather drink an expensive import than a cheap macro-brew any day of the week. Amen to that!
Our North Carolina beer guide will help you make informed decisions about the brews of that fair state.
Talking of a fair state, here's the first UNOB Beer Delegate for NC, the one and only Greg Barbera.
As you've seen from his first submission, a review of Horniblow's Tavern American Ale, Greg's no stranger to being in a bit of a state. Say no more.
His is (perhaps) the shortest application speech ever received by any organisation.
After several months of ploughing a lone furrow, Greg has finally been joined by a second Delegagte.
Matt Lyman is an ex-Marine and confesses that he's a bit of a beer snob, turning his nose up at cheap domestic brews. Which is all right with us!
Let's see what they have to say for themselves...
Your application speech, Greg
Beer is my best friend. Need i say
(burp!) more?
(Yes please. Ed.)
OK then, I'm a punk rock singer and musician, stay at home dad, have held every type of job imaginable, have been working on a novel for ten years, drink beer daily, hate PCs...
Is that enough for now?
(Probably. Ed.)
Your application speech, Matt
I'm a former Marine, current student and an avid beer drinker.
You'll never hear me advocate the drinking of cheap beers. I will fight for the right to be a beer snob and take the floor to justify the spending unbudgeted cash on a delicious German import.
I'll be the representative who'll cheer when fellow beer drinkers brag about spending $11 for a sixer of Warsteiner when attending a wedding in Michigan.
I will be the voice people want to hear when choosing a fine beer.
Excellent! Welcome to you both!
