Book excerpt: Over the past thirty-plus years, the beer industry in the United States has slowly transformed itself from the butt of international jokes (courtesy of Prohibition and the subsequent dominance of mass-produced, lifeless lagers) to the most innovative and delicious craft beer culture on the planet. No region of the country has been more influential in helping shape and inspire the craft beer movement than Northern California. Following Fritz Maytag's revitalization of San Francisco's Anchor Brewing in the mid-1960s and the establishment of New Albion Brewing Company in Sonoma in the decade afterward, current brewing innovators such as Sierra Nevada Brewing Company and Russian River Brewing continue to ensure that there's never been a better time or place to seek out great beer. The Northern California Craft Beer Guide is the definitive handbook to the artistry, people, and culture of the region's craft beer scene. Beer writer Ken Weaver and photographer Anneliese Schmidt have invested months of precious drinking time into visiting the furthest corners of Northern California and tasting everything the region has to offer - from the latest Belgian-style beers coming out of Arcata to the newest beer-centric burger joint in Santa Cruz, to the phenomenal brews of Central Valley nobody's ever heard of -- to create a guide that does this beer scene justice. Encompassing breweries, beer bars, restaurants, bottle shops, and homebrew shops (as well as plenty of other people and places that were just too cool to leave out), The Northern California Craft Beer Guide is a collection of over three hundred entries and topics highlighting the very best the region has to offer.

The book includes maps to guide you on a brewery tour. The breweries were selected with the assistance of the brewers (and their fans).

Hundreds of photographs will help beer lovers decide where they want to while away their sipping hours. A tasting flight of breweries is featured for sampling: From Sierra Nevada and Lost Coast on the larger side--to mid-size operations such as Faction and Heretic--to intimate barrel houses such as Cleophus Quealy and Sante Adairius--and everything in between. Each entry gives the low down on details such as the brewery's claim to fame, whether they serve food, have growlers on hand for take away, and if well behaved pets and kids can join in the fun. A blank page for beer lover's tasting notes will help aficionados keep track of which brews they've tasted and especially loved. Organized by region to make brewery hopping simple, this Field Guide to Nor Cal Craft Breweries is the perfect book for both locals and tourists who want to join the fun. A section of terms and interesting tidbits of information adds an educational component to those who enjoy geeking out.

Book excerpt: A Great Gift for the Craft Beer Enthusiast - A Travel Guide to Craft Beer Breweries Across the United States You've heard of a wine trail, but what about an ale trail? On your next road trip, take a look at some of the nation's independent craft beer breweries. In this extensive guide, you'll find nearly every brewpub, watering hole, beer garden, and taproom in the United States. The listings include the address, phone number, and website for the featured brewery. For those that my personal favorite or have been recommended to me by close friends, I have also included a short description in the listing. Whether you're into IPAs, pilsners, or white ales, there is a brewery for you. In my book, Craft Beer Brewery Guide to All 50 States, I will show you how your next vacation can be made even more enjoyable by visiting a locally owned and operated brewery. These brewpubs and taprooms will provide you with a unique experience you won't soon forget. Beer enthusiasts will delight in the idea of taking a trip just to sample interesting local brews. In my book, I will show you where to go and how to travel to make the most of your stay, including daily itineraries with travel directions. The states are listed alphabetically, but I will show you how to go around the brewery trails geographically within the states. In this book, we'll discuss all aspects of enjoying the right pint of beer. When it comes to beer, you likely think of people sitting at a bar and drinking from a glass. However, properly serving and tasting beer is so much more than this. First, we're going to look at how to properly serve and store beer. Then we'll consider how best to drink beer. In order to properly serve and taste beer, you first need to make sure you have the right glassware. I will show you how to pick the right glassware for serving beer. We will also discuss brewery and taproom beer tasting etiquette. Tasting beer is much more than taking a swig and swallowing it down. When you taste and truly appreciate a good craft beer, you should be able to articulate your experience. With this book, you will learn how. This might seem simple, but just as you would with wine, there is a right way to properly taste your beer. I will also give you an extensive beer style guide to help you determine the differences between craft beers. Another important part of beer tasting is how to properly store your beer before drinking and then how to properly pour it into your selected glass. Beer should be treated just like any other perishable food. In this craft brewery guide, you will learn: History of Beer in America How to Serve Beer Different Types of Glasses for Beer Pouring and Storing Beer How to Drink Beer Beer Taste Ratings Beer Style Guide Brewery Etiquette State Breweries Listed by State, then by Geographic Region within that State Directional suggested itineraries so you can make the most of your trip BONUS: Glossary of common beer brewing terms This craft brewery guide to the United States is extensive, comprehensive, and makes a great gift for the beer lover in your life.
