Jason and Todd Alstrom are the founders of BeerAdvocate (BA), a global, grassroots network powered by an independent community of enthusiasts and professionals dedicated to supporting and promoting better beer. Since its inception in 1996, BeerAdvocate.com has grown into the largest and most diverse beer community online and is now widely considered the go-to website for news, reviews, gossip, and guidance about beer. The Alstroms are also the publishers of BeerAdvocate magazine, a monthly publication they launched in December 2006, and host numerous festivals and events, including the popular Extreme Beer Festival, which expanded to Los Angeles in 2017.
