BEER HERE: A TRAVELER'S GUIDE TO AMERICAN BREWPUBS AND MICROBREWERIES Kallen, Stuart A. 1995 11394 ABOUT THE BOOK Beer Here: A Traveler's Guide to American Brewpubs and Microbreweries FROM THE PUBLISHER From cozy brewpubs with great food and hand-made beer to megabrewing giants, this handy, up-to-date, informative, and fun-filled guide is indispensable for the traveler who wants to sample the best beers America has to offer. For those who don't know wort from a weizsenbier, Beer Here details the drink's history, brewing styles, ingredients, and hundreds of little-known facts to share over a schooner of suds. It takes the reader on a coast-to-coast tour, listing names, addresses, locations, operating hours, tour hours, food entertainments, and events at more than 500 brewpubs, microbreweries, and regional and national breweries. FROM THE CRITICS Library Journal Beer has made a remarkable comeback in recent years, with yuppies casting aside their mineral water and women their wine to chug brewskies with the blue-collar crowd. Much of the brewhaha is due to the advent of microbreweries (small independent brewers), which, with smaller batches of a higher-quality product, are luring drinkers away from the Milwaukee swill of their youth. This work presents a brief history of beer along with short takes on the essential ingredients and the differences among types of brews (lagers, ales, stouts, etc.). The main body of the volume, however, is a state-by-state guide to microbreweries and brewpubs (breweries with bars attached). Each listing includes name, address, and phone number plus types of beers sold, tour availability, and author commentary. With new microbreweries opening steadily, this will go out of date within a few years but is recommended nonetheless for collections lacking a similar guide.-Michael Rogers, "Library Journal" Carol Publishing Group 0-8065-1639-9 / 9780806516394 Paperback AS NEW Secaucus, N.J.
