- Synopsis
- &“Chronicles Maine&’s rather complicated relationship with alcohol over the years, and offers histories and profiles of more than 30 brewing companies.&” —The Ellsworth American In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Maine was a stronghold for the temperance movement, but the Pine Tree State emerged from Prohibition to create a beer culture that rivals any other in the United States. Early pioneers, like D. L. Geary, established the Northeast&’s love affair with English-style ales, and today&’s upstarts brew unique and inventive recipes. Maine brewers create beer for every palate, and Maine&’s unique flavors—like blueberries, potatoes and even oysters—are frequently featured. Maine beer expert Josh Christie discovers the story of brewing in Vacationland by exploring Maine&’s large breweries, like Shipyard; its local crafters, like Rising Tide; the budding cider, spirits and mead industries; and, of course, the best places to drink across the state. &“The book explores the history of beer and beer brewing in Maine, starting with the formation of the state and continuing to the present day.&” —Shelf Awareness
