The email was intended for regular customers of the brewery, including one such contact list beginning with 'B' that sits beneath a contact list for 'Beer Writers'.<br /><br />I'm bemused as to why you felt the need to share such a simple mistake (and such a non-event of an email) with the followers of your blog - suggesting that Alison is some kind of spam-bot along the way? Bizarre. <br /><br />I guess I should point out that the email was also meant to have included an attachment, but Alison forgot to actually attach the file before hitting 'send'. Perhaps we do need to upgrade to the Spam-bot82 after all?! The one we have at present clearly isn't doing her spamming job properly. <br /><br />As for how and where Rooster's "harvested" your email address from, I have no idea. Perhaps, as a beer writer / blogger, with your address available on the British Guild of Beer Writers website, someone (an actual person), at some point, thought you might like to be informed of beer and brewery news? Please accept my apologies. <br /><br />Thanks to the other writers who replied, informing Alison of the error of her ways, or simply ignored the email. <br /><br />I'm happy to confirm that Stars & Stripes IS on good form!<br /><br />Rant rant, back to beer, have a great week.<br /><br />Tom.Tom - Rooster'snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2481997963035980408.post-30721624461003902462011-06-16T11:24:47.015+01:002011-06-16T11:24:47.015+01:00That is pretty inept marketing.
