I also can't answer for the Beachbum himself, but as a professional db & web app designer who also is lucky enough to call Jeff a good friend, and meet up with the him for drinks on a very regular basis, I know a bit about where he stands. He has, in the past, been very concerned about his recipes getting out in other formats beyond his books, for the reasons jab stated. Additionally, he has his own website, and is also friends with CocktailDB's Dr. Cocktail (Ted Haigh), and me of course... basically, I would bet that the reason you haven't seen his recipes in online/db format is not because of a lack of resources/opportunity, but an honest-to-Ku lack of interest or even disinterest.

I'll bring it up with him when I see him this weekend, but I can't guarantee a response one way or another... he is, after all, a Bum. :wink:
