“The American Brew,” the rich and unlikely history of beer in America, is being offered for FREE.  Too many promotional copies were made by the sponsor. Just $3.85 shipping/handling.

Writing in the Denver Post, Dick Kreck said, “To understand America, one must know beer,not baseball. The American Brew explains with wit and insight our infatuation with beer in its infinite variety.”

Find out why the Pilgrims were not supposed to land at Plymouth Rock. Hint: they were running out of beer.

See beer brewed in a fireplace in the colonial method in Colonial Williamsburg and on a stove by a home brewer in the Bronx. Learn how Germans changed America’s taste for beer in the 19th Century and why Prohibition devastated the industry. Hear how craft brewing rose like a Phoenix from pioneer brewers like Fritz Maytag and Ken Grossman, and watch Jasmine IPA and Chardonnay brew being created by America’s top craft brewers. And much, much more.
