Of course I applied - why not? But, despite having all my vitals, Sheraton's Four Point's hotel chain is still looking...not to mention milking this promotional idea of a Chief Beer Officer for the hotel chain:
Four Points reports that over 5,000 applicants from 31 countries want to be a CBO. MBAs (both Masters of Business and Beer Administration), self-proclaimed beer snobs, certified beer judges, beer journalists and hundreds who have traveled the globe in search of the world's best brews have all applied for the position. Over 50 percent of applicants have brewed their own beer and, surprisingly, five percent claim to have served as a beer mascot (which could make the interview process quite interesting!).So which am I? A beer journalist or a beer snob? Maybe a snobalist.

Definitely not a snob, maybe a journalist but I think "enthusiast" is the best title for you Al.

It would help if they could get the answers to their own questions right - Willamette hops, not Williamette, and 18th century porters gave their name to the beer, not 19th century ones.

Hah! I probably simply failed. Good for you to take notes, Martyn.
